    @rinabella ..about novated lease----is a three party agreement between the employee, employer and the finance company (i.e. lease provider), organised by employer'’s approved Novated Lease Fleet Management Company.
    The employee enters into a leasing agreement between himself/herself and the finance company for the provision of a vehicle. The employee, employer, and the finance company enter into a Full Novation Agreement under which the employer agrees to take on the responsibility of paying the finance company on behalf of the employee.
    The lease payments and vehicle running costs are paid from the employee’s pre and in some cases post – tax remuneration to our approved Fleet Management Company, so long as the lease is Novated. The approved Fleet Management Company then pays the finance company and suppliers on behalf of the employer and the employee, so long as the lease is novated to the employer.

    @rinabella god thing with novated lease is bawas don sa pre-tax income mo, meaning mas mababa ang tax na babayaran mo. Di ja rin magbabayad ng GST on the purchase at saka kung may discount nakukuha yong fleet company malaking bagay din yon...all expenses related sa car( fuel, insurance, maintenance) lahat ay bawas na sa salary mo(computed based sa idedeclare mo na km run etc.) then irerecompute pagkatapos ng contract kung may over/under payment ka

    @rinabella maganda ang quality ng used car dito especially sa mga dealers, so ok lang na for the meantime used car bilhin mo....yong salary sacrifice yata ay more on deduction na mapupunta sa Super mo as savings...magandang gawin yan kung lalampas sa tax bracket ang salary mo..instead of paying a higher tax, isasacrifice mo yong salary mo towards your super para ang basis ng tax computation ay bababa

    Pwede bang magdownpayment sa novated lease para mas mababa ang kaltas sa salary or it's not cost effective?

    Hello. Not sure kung san thread ko post question ko eh. Dito ako napunta.

    What do you hear/know about the Skoda brand dyan sa Australia? Good quality and service ba? One site in UK awards this as small car winner (http://awards.whatcar.com/small). If for brand new small car, what would you go with?

    Its More expensive from dealership

    I would take my time buying from a direct seller, but yes I'm sure from a dealership there is warranty or guarantee that what you buy from them is not a lemon

    Google for Everything !!!

    mga guru, may tanong lang ako, sana may makapagbigay ng input kasi gulong-gulo na talaga ko hehe

    Meron akong nagustuhan na 2015 suzuki swift glx navigator automatic na suma tutal $19,400 ung kelangan i-finance (tapat na presyo na after dagdag upgrades and bawas ung downpayment)

    nagquote sakin na na-approve ung in-house financing kaso nung nagcompute nako pumatak na mga $7,380 ung ibabayad ko in total sa interest, ang tanong ko sana e kung katanggap tanggap ba sya?

    salamat and pasensya na sa overwhelming details.

    kung hindi naman hassle sayo every month magkano babayaran mo in let's say 3 years then ok lang yun lalo kung gusto mo talaga yung sasakyan

    kung makakahassle lang sa araw araw na bayarin mas maigi mag private seller kana lang muna mura mura kaunting auto full service lang reliable na yun

    nakakuha ako subaru forester for under 2K aud lang kaunting service lang ok na siya

    basta umaandar at nakakarating sa paroroonan ayos na din haha

    @thegreatiam15 salamat sa input, ganun ko na nga lang titignan kasi kakatawag lang din nila, 8.2% annual interest pala yung ibinigay, medyo mababa nadin kahit pano :)

    yung vw golf 2001 ung una namin nakuha sa gumtree, ayos naman siya pero lately nagcucruise control magisa hehe tip lang sa bibili lalo na sa katulad namin na wala alam sa sasakyan alamin niyo kung ung engine check indicator light e nagaappear. sa case namin walang ilaw ung check engine kasi pinundi siya talaga nung seller, so para siyang walang error pero sa totoong buhay meron kaso di nagfa-flash. sorry kung magulo

    @rohani99 ask around sa mga banks para maraming choices at makita mo yung kung sino ang mas maliit ang babayaran mong interest. wag mag-compare sa kung ilang %, mas ok na yung total interest (including processing fees, atbp) ang gawing comparison.

    regarding naman sa dealer price, may nakausap akong pinay na nagtatrabaho as manager sa bank sabi nya (ewan kung nagyayabang lang) tumawad ka daw agad ng aud5k sa price. pag di pumayag, alis ka daw agad. ganyan daw ginagawa nya dun sa 3 cars na nabili nya at nakatawad sya ng 3k ~ 5k. tas bibili ka daw pag malapit na ang end of month kasi dyan yung time na nagpe-prepare na sila ng sales report at pag di sila aabot ng quota, advantage para sayo yun kasi ibabagsak nila (sales agent) ang presyo para lang maabot ang quota.

    madami naman dealers dyan kaya try mo rin magtanong-tanong baka makabawas ka sa ibang dealers.

    goodmorning! actually hindi naman tinawaran, dahil lang sa promo.

    last march nag-promo ang hyundai, 19,990 driveaway with free auto. nagbasa-basa ako ng review tapos nagpa-sked ng test drive. After ng test drive sabi ko may appointment pa kami sa toyota (pero wala naman talaga).

    Humirit yung ahente ano daw pwede nya gawin para di na kami pumunta sa toyota. Sabi ko pwede mo ba palitan ng alloy mags yung steel wheels? Hindi daw. I-free mo nalang yung metallic paint? (plus 500 din kasi). Pumayag. Sa accessories naman, tint lang kinuha ko (added $450, orig price $500).

    So ayun, nakuha ko ang oto at 19,990+ tint 450. Pagtingin ko sa resibo nakalagay 5800 discount. Meron pa kasi ibang fees at charges tulad ng stamp duty, dealer delivery, rego, etc. Kaya mas maganda magtingin ng driveaway, no more to pay na price.

    hello sa lahat first time ko sana kuha nang brand new sa dealer nang bagong auto

    itago natin sa pangalan ang company na "LINUK"

    nakakuha ako tawag galing sa kanila naapproved daw finance ko tapos naorder na yung sasakyan ayon sa sales agent

    sunod nung araw na bago delivery 2 days nagrequest na sila documents saken kagaya nang bank statements, payslips, employment contract (nabigay ko na 1 month ago) at character references na hindi nakatira sa same address

    one day bago delivery tumawag ulet ang company na nagaasikaso nang finance na nireject daw payslip ko kasi generic daw

    hiningi yung company ABN at BSB pati acct nang kumpanya

    binigay ko direct email nang amo at siya mismo nagprovide nung ABN, bsb at acct # kung saan nakukuha namin payroll

    tanong ko lang:

    may sitwasyon bang ganito na naprovide mo lahat nang necessary documents tapos bigla bago arwa nang delivery sabihin sayo na hindi mo pwede kunin sasakyan kasi ayaw pumayag nang finance?

    sunod ang sabi saken kausapin daw ako nang amo or boss nung finance para sa options ko
    na hindi ko alam kung ano yung iproprose na options pero kung may nakakaalam baka pwede makakakuha sana advise.

    pangatlo 1 day palang yung pinirmahan kong contract at walang pirma dun sa baba yung finance at nakalagay subject yung customer to decline anytime to decline the offer once na nadisapprove yung credit

    tanong dito sa last papaano madidecline yung credit kung una palang naapprove finance sunod naorder sasakyan andon na rehistro at ready na lahat lahat nakakabit na din yung mga add ons na pinili ko plus yung clear coating sa sasakyan.

    sana may makatulong maraming salamat

    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.

    I haven't lost everything except my mind...
