From the price I saw in their FB, is almost the price of a full joint half cut...

Beside engine, which has serial number on it, I believe all other parts can be used or resell it...

I heard this kind of deals b4, but after 1 year when the roadtax renewal comes, god knows we still can get in touch with them or not...

Scrap car:
Singapore regulation, all cars in SG have only 10 yrs life span due to the COE. After 10 years, either you re-purchase the COE (cost SGD 70K) again to retain the car or scrap the car with little return (around 10k).

So some funny funny things come around, some business bring in these kind of near 10 years old car to Malaysia, instead of scrapping it, they sell it to Malaysian and drive in Malaysia. Ofcoz it dont have legal documents (insurance, rd tax, import permit).

It wont be an issue if you drive these kind of cars in Malaysia as Malaysia authority dont have the info/ data to tangkap you (kind of grey area). As Malaysia Gov see it as foreign car, as a visitor car. Just that this car cant return back to SG.

But bear in mind, if you happen involve in accident, then god bless you. All sort of consequences may come to you.

Conclusion: These cars are all ILLEGAL!!

Oh, meaning they are selling those cars with SG plate and SG roadtax?
