Experience in Buying Cars in Australia

ok naman sa dealer as long as maprovide mo lahat nang necessary documents at saka requirements nila usually ang tatawagan diyan yung amo mo sa office or company nyo magtatanong sila ng mga specifics tungkol sa employment mo once nasatisfy yun makukuha mo brand new yung kotse.

Auctions like Pickles and Grays are great places to buy good cheap cars, they have weekly auctions in Sydney and Melb, save 15 to 25% compared to a dealer, as long as your after a good cheap car and not to fussy with color etc.

Hello mates. any inputs or advice po sana. Im thinking of buying my first car here in Melbourne. Im torn between a 2nd hand SUV and a brand new Hatch. almost same price lang cya and around 2 to 3 year old un prospect ko na 2nd hand SUV. Ano po maipapayo nyo? hehe. Buying both is not an option, 1 lang talaga ang pede piliin, di ko pa kaya bumili ng 2, wish ko lang.. hahaha... Thanks mates!! 🙂

Hi guys, medyo confused lang ako about driveaway price. Does it normally include stamp duty, rego, CTP and delivery charge?

@Habanero in my experience, when I bought mine, kasama na lahat. but drive away price is the price in cash. ibang usapan yung financing. I just got confused with the "delivery", iba ata definition nila ng delivery dito. lol. The delivery from my agent did not mean from casa to home but it was like an orientation or briefing for the car before YOU get to drive it home.

Sino po dito ang may experience kumuha ng brand new car sa honda? Thanks

Captain_A

@rdr8 a friend did, ok nmn so far

rdr8

@Captain_A hi! Thanks sa reply. Ask ko lang naka discount ba raw sila?

Captain_A

@rdr8 alam ko free service at 7 yr warranty.. nakadiscount daw pero parang may 3rd party involved s financing niya so parang halos nawala din ang discount..

pero mukhang happy nmn sya s honda car nya..

rdr8

@Captain_A thanks! Gusto ko lang kasi malaman hanggang magkano pede madiscount hehe! Nagpunta kami dun sa isang dealer ng Honda grabe yung sales agent, ayaw ibaba yung price. Plan ko kasi wag na mag finance, kaya gusto ko mapababa yung price as much as possible. Thanks sa info

Captain_A

@rdr8 oo mas ok pag cash, may ilang sales agent ang kakagat sa offer mo kung reasonable nmn at cash..

consider having a car mechanic with you when you inspect and test drive the car, for a few bucks it will save you heaps of future problems.

Buhayin ko lang yung thread. Meron bang bumili ng demo car? Mas advisable ba ito kesa sa secondhand na kotse?

Hindi ko pa na experience bumili ng demo pero ang advantage ng Demo is lower price ng Brand new at may residual manufacturer's warranty. Secondhand is mura but be prepare kung may kailangan ayusin.

i bought a 2nd hand car, so far, wala naman major issue, normal service fees p lng nagastos ko..

it was an 8yo car..

i suggest, take a mechanic with you when you inspect and test drive. all worth it if you prepare cheaper 2nd hand car.

@Captain_A Gaano na katagal sa inyo yung kotse and saan ninyo binili?

Kumuha kami ng demo car last Aug 2019 . Pero demo car sya from 2018 Model.

5K lower than the publish price ng brand new(without the add-ons). Ung demo unit namin had 150km mileage lang, naka tint, may floor mats na din and upgraded yung tires. We didn't have to pay for the rego transfer cost.

Yung first car namin we got it from Gumtree 2nd hand from private seller. We paid $150 for a mechanic to go with us to check the car before purchasing. We have it for 5 years na.
