If you love those features, my advise is to enjoy those features as it comes with the car and you have already paid the price for it. You should not worry about battery life, etc. Otherwise, you might as well get a cheaper car without those premium features. And most production cars are already run in before it goes to the showrooms. Again, do not be afraid to rev your car. I went 200kmh the first week i got my car. It's a Golf, enjoy it!

summore got 5 years unlimited mileage warranty right?

Wonder if VW Golf 1.4 TSI's price will depreciate extremely after warranty period?

Sounds like a good piece of advice dude. +1 to you!
Don't know man, SA told me continental cars depreciate approx 10% of it's selling price every year. So if you decide to sell it after 5 years, that's 50% gone! Wow

Hmm, then it is free after 10 years? cannot be ...

Shouldn't be as follow: -
say RM150,000 - 1st year
RM 135,000 - 2nd year
RM 121,500 - 3rd year
RM 109,350 - 4th year
RM 98,415 - 5th year

Are you planning to sell your ride within this year or few year later ? If not, why are you concern on the re-sell value ? Unless you plan to sell soon, can u look into re-sell value

I said approx 10%

Approx = approximately

Meaning of approximately is this: Almost exact or correct

Not exact okay? It's just a rough figure my SA gave me so I have a rough idea of the value. It doesn't mean the car will be free after 10 years.

Omg, I can't think of any one who would logically think that way 

If there's not much an maintenance issue, I will keep Golf forever. Just like Beetle ...

I ask about the resale value as my Toyota Altis depreciate approx. 50% after six years.

1. Additional info. There should not be issue to crank immediate, but just my own feel-good-factor to wait for the ABS to off.

2. No. I mean, I don't wait / idle my car. I'm the start, ready, go type. But of course, I'll drive slowly at low RPM for the initial 10-15 minutes or until the temperature is >80°C.

3. Also, I go under tunnel / trees / intersection bridges, I don't want the Auto-switch to auto on/off the headlights every now and then. Sometimes syiok sendiri, only manual switch to DRL.

4. Should be no issue with default bulbs. If you take note, the front footwell-lights also same.

5. Yeah, ask SA is the fastest option. Same with me when want to set the low-volume-radio during reverse. Default it switched off the radio. My SA guide me and immediately done.

6. My to-and-fro is 26-27km only   
Maybe RM72.00    Some countries use opposite for decimal and comma. 

saw your post in vw forum. haha dude thats no kopitiam man.

btw, battery life on newer VWs has quite short life span. only about 1 year. many has replaced under warranty. all those lights, on radio while engine off etc are not doing any good for the battery lifespan. my mk5 battery still can use after 2.5 years. battery on BMWs last very long, up to 4-5 years, as it is located at the back of the car. which means less heat. heat is the enemy of battery lifespan.

all car like that mah. my dad bought his mercedes S280 brand new around RM650k in 2006. this year wanna let go, market price already RM110k. WTF. that is 83% depreciate in 6 years.     

I dont really care about resale value. i just wanna enjoy my ride while inside the car "bau kedai".
p/s: i wonder if there exist "bau kedai" car perfume in market. hehehe.

Even BMW and Mercedes depreciates a lot in value, and what more a VW?

From my research, only Mercedes is able to hold its resale value better than all its luxury marque rivals.

Best to take 3 to 5 year loans if possible, sell the car off by 4 years and at least you should be able to get maximum amount of money back for the next upgrade.

that W220 s class? last batch already 2006, dun tell me dun have discount that time?
VW polo gti appreciate in value what

Still can't understand why scirocco cost 188k? Still 1.4.. If the beetle is about 160k, then Rocco is really overpriced...  :-(
