Hi bro,

Pls feel free to contact me if u need any enquiry on REP/mm2h vehicle details.
BTW, I'm Toyota SA.
I met many mm2h cust n also REP applicant..
Buying or selling tax exempted car also...
The REP process is easier than mm2h process.
It's very simple if u familiar with it.

Thanks.

Most Merc/BMW/Volvo/Honda/Toyota/Nissan showrooms have similar experience handling REP case. Just mention to them MM2H or PAKAR programme and they will know what it means.

Try go to Glenmarie area where most of the car showroom HQ are located.

Dont even think of trying KIA, Peugeot or Citroen (or any company under NAZA), they dont entertain these tax incentives.

Mazda and Hyundai, from my experience is quite hard to come by as the sales agent are inexperienced in dealing with the case (both are under Sime Darby/Inokom) tho Mazda showrooms are more helpful. Got the REP price for CX-5 after weeks it was launched. the discount for both marquee are very little tho.

VW - Miserable discount rate. Could've top up extra ~10k bought a Volvo S60 T4 or BMW 316i for the price I pay for Passat under REP programme. Nevertheless they are helpful in providing the info.

For Mitsubishi, heard the showroom in Glenamarie has dedicated team dealing with PAKAR programme. only ASX is CKD and a bit of search in this thread will reveal the price

Subaru - only XV is CKD and a bit of search in this thread will reveal the price.

Renault - only Fluence is CKD and a bit of search in this thread will reveal the price. (got mine for around 80k++)

I went for Volvo V40 and Renault Fluence for my parents for my 2 cars allocation.

Well you can't really compare both cars as it is a different genre type of cars in my opinion. Volkswagen Passat has a edge in their designs and its appearance suit a younger ownership whereas Volvo has a slightly older design which suit older people. I also know that Volkswagen Passat has a better fuel efficiency to compared to Volvo s60 T4 or BMW 316i.

The point is, it does not justify to buy a car that is worth 170k+ whilst you can top up another 10k and get a car that is worth 220k+

The tax incentive by VW is really not worth it IMO.

I am just judging by the worthiness of exercising the benefit of tax incentive here instead of comparing the functionality. I hope you get my point Just helping out others in getting the best bang of bucks

FYI, i test drove passat and really loved the driving experience but i dont see it attract me in terms of the design. it looks plain to me whereas the Volvo V40 i have chosen has much more younger appearance.

The reason why VW has less tax exemption mainly because most of the part of the car are still imported from overseas hence the car is somewhat labelled as SKD (semi knocked down).

Well, Passat is running on a 2.0l engine while S60 and 316i are running on a 1.6l turbo engine. Well, i will leave the FC discussion out as I am not in the position to comment about it.

My decision of not going to VW mainly affected by the fact that when i was working in UK, VW is like, everywhere, comparable to the Myvis here. Golf, Polo, everywhere . The fact is VW is not a premium marquee as compared to Merc and BMW.

I am also doing a survey on Volvo cars too based on my budget:) Apparently, Volvo's tax exemption rate is higher compared to other car makers ( which sounds really good to REP or MM2H buyers ). However, besides the 5+5+5 promotion, I found almost nothing about cash rebates + free gifts offer upon Volvo car purchase. Kindly share should you guys have related info on cash rebates or other offers.

Yea basically you won't get much offer for cars under REP because it's usually brand new cars that are not yet tax/duty paid. Even if you go for Honda or Nissan they won't give you much rebate because they need to get a brand new car for you instead of old duty paid stock. Tho some car manufacturer do keep old stocks of non tax/duty paid cars.

Volvo didn't offer much rebate. I only get free umbrella from my purchase. Nevertheless it's the best bang for bucks compared to the others. The 5+5+5 practically seals the deal as most car dealers only offer 2-3 years warranty and/or free service and Volvo offer both for 5 years!

Today I am going to a Volvo showroom in Penang. Hopefully I would get good deal there. Will update if there is something interesting or worth sharing. Good day guys!

they are launching the facelifted S60 today. wouldve purchased this instead if they launched it earlier. too bad the car only available to view at Glenmarie.

Hi there, anyone of you has experience on selling your tax free car? Says if we owned it for 5yrs and resale it, will be need to repay back anything? How's the resale value compare market price? Very confuse now as no SA can provide me any info. Called mof and never get answer on phone. Appreciate some sharing. TIA

hi there. please enlighten me the purchase process. what is Hasil Tax account? is it income tax reference number? if not, how to get it?
what if i do not have income tax reference number yet as i have just started to work?

yes but you will need to check with the customs of the current car value and tax applied to the car. The sales agent cant give you an accurate figure. Unfortunately we (or the new buyer) still need to pay back the tax when selling it. So it essentially same as selling a normal car. except for maybe the selling price might be lower as tax might not be that high after 5 years. i might be wrong as i have never done this before

hmmm. dont think i have been asked for the info. is this asked by the sales agent?

i guess you can go LHDN and register?

hi chizzu,

so in summary, you just provided the surat akuan and approval letter to the sales agent? not any other document is required? thanks.

well, they did get my payslip and kwsp statements to show i am financially capable to purchase the car, just the usual docs you would submit when you buy a car. If you have not started work, a copy of employment contract or job offer would suffice.

thanks chizzu

Many thanks chizzu

Need help urgently.

I have recently booked my second cars (I am entitled to 2 CKD cars) under REP.
I have been given the engine # and chasis #. Now, what do I do?
I was told to apply from MOF. But how? Can anyone guide me?
Thanks a million in advance.

-- James

how did you booked the first car? did the sales agent help you?

if yes, try ask your login details from them. if not, you might need to go to MOF to register some digital identity thing and log in to smpc

I think there were some guide on the first few pages of this thread. do read up.

Thanks for your reply.
To be honest, I don't remember how I did it the first time. It's been almost 18 months ago.
I think I did it myself the first time because my computer saved the login info to smpc site and hasil site. But for some reason, the saved passwords are no longer valid. Does it mean I need to get the digital cert before I can log in?

They have changed the login mechanism, supposingly more secure. You need to get the digital cert ( how to get it you can refer to smpc site coz my car dealer got it for me) then, you can enter the details in smpc site.

OK. I will try and let you know later.
Thanks again.
