Just did some pricing survey at Auto Bravia Glenmarie.

here are some information

BMW

BMW 116i - REP price without insurance - RM109.937.75
BMW 118i - REP price without insurance - RM124,783.53
BMW 316i - REP price without insurance - RM146,084.47


Mini Cooper

Mini Cooper Countryman (CKD) - REP price without insurance - RM149,096.44
Mini Cooper S Countryman (CKD) - REP price without insurance - RM175,093.98

went to Citroen as well to have a look at DS4 and DS5 but sadly no REP price for these 2 newly CKD cars.

Test drove 320i before. 328i is out of reach the discount doesn't apply for REP. Only for year end model. For normal priced cars, if you take the car before 31st dec you get massive discounts. Even 118i have 10k discounts I heard.

It was launched recently as CKD model. But it's quite ugly tho. The interior was so so. Rather top up and get 316 as it's same engine and has bigger space. Fells the same except for 316 feels much roomier. The back seat was amongst the worst for a hatch as compared to volvo v40, gold and a class

See above

quite rare to get discounts but no harm trying

went to Glenmarie just now, wanted to check if Volvo V40 Rebel blue is in show room but it was closed

Went to VW and asked about Polo Sedan and Polo CKD. Looks like the discount is minimal. Around 10k discount, bringing the price to 75k+

Went to Renault showroom to have a look at Renault Fluence yesterday.

REP tax free is estimated about RM 95k

shortlisting Renault Fluence and Subaru XV for my second car (tho i still have not bought any yet)

havent even bought any my REP expiring soon

awaiting Volvo s60 facelift and trying very hard to find some time to test drive and make decision soon.

pledged myself to at least book a car by this month.

now deciding between Subaru XV or Renault Fluence... both are below 100k range which is within my budget.

Merc C Class definitely launching end of the year. sadly my REP entitlement will end before the new C class is out...

i dont think it is possible lol.

My entitlement expired in 1st Nov 2014 lol. So i have to place a booking 3 months before the it expires which is like, 1st july

Try chase your SA for more detail. Usually the chasis and engine number needs to be non paid tax so it depends on if they have the new shipment or stocks of the chasis and engine without tax paid.

But for your case, its since March so its quite long ago. Maybe you can try to email Honda Malaysia?

What car did you order? Wonder why it takes so long. usually its 3-4 months to get the car.

Anyways, i finally placed a booking for my first car

Cant believe I am placing a booking for a French car...

Perhaps you might want to consider other car with quicker turnover time? I just booked my car like Saturday and I already gotten my engine and chasis number yesterday and got my documents processed yesterday. I believe some of the car dealers keep some stocks without tax paid in preparation for these situations. The turnover time to get the car is just 1 month +

Any car dealers under Naza dont entertain REP (except maybe some KIA dealers) i got shoved away by PSA (Pug and Citroen) by saying they dont support REP entitlement for their CKD cars. Total bullshit!

I just booked Renault Fluence as I find the price really attractive for such a well equiped family car. The REP price without tax is RM 86,800 and if i booked before first of july, i get 5 years free service which is quite a good deal.

As this car is for my mom, it is convenient for her as there is a Renault SC in Klang. I hope i dont make a wrong choice

you can try use your overseas payslip before you come back, and your offer letter of your new job. Am sure it should be enough to support your loan application. I bought my first car when i was still working in UK using my UK payslip and bank statements.

yup, it usually take about 1-2 months to process the stuffs. the SA have to go around the REP office, customs and the ministry of finance office. a lot of work and do take note its Ramadhan month

Passat also SKD hence the low tax exemption on REP compared to CKD like Merc or Volvo.

but the last time i asked, pug only offer 6k off for REP programme. think their year end sales has better offer than that. lol. Citroen doesnt even entertain REP at all.

Since your application has been approved, it should state the entitlement in the letter. Do check your approval letter.

I believe if you apply before the change takes effect you will be getting the prior arrangement.
