Value PPI welcomeWork out your monthly
Flat rate estimate for guidance. A longer tenure lowers the monthly but costs more in total interest. Your actual rate depends on the bank and your approval, so message me for a firm quote. More on this in why the cheapest monthly is rarely the cheapest car.
Comparing with a cheaper car elsewhere?
A lower depreciation does not always mean a cheaper car. Some cars are priced lower but come with a higher loan rate, and the extra interest can cancel out the saving.
| Car A | Car B | |
| Price | $100,000 | $95,000 |
| Depreciation per year | $18,000 | $17,000 |
| Loan rate | 2.48% | 4.5% |
| Interest over 5 years | $8,680 | $14,963 |
| Cost per year with the loan | $19,736 | $19,993 |
Car B looks $1,000 a year cheaper but costs more once the loan is counted. Ask for the loan rate before you compare. Example uses a 70% loan over 5 years with a $10,000 PARF rebate.
Warranty on this car
Value cars are priced lower and do not come with a warranty. You are still buying from a registered business, so the Lemon Law protections apply to defects present when the car is handed over.
You are welcome to have it inspected at your own workshop or STA before you commit.
Viewings are by appointment. I am not always at the office, so book first and I will make sure the car and I are both there. How viewings work.
About this car
Two owners with 95,000km over 9 years, around 10,800km a year. A value car priced for its shorter COE. Naturally aspirated 2.0 with a conventional six-speed automatic, a simple and durable combination. The COE runs to Jan 2028, so the loan tenure is capped at 14 months, which pushes the monthly up. It suits someone who wants a year or two of use.
