    Default Car

    is it better to rental a car or buy one.

    my friend rent a mitsubishi lancer on a long term basis and her rental is about $650/mth,

    she does not have to worry about maintanence, road tax etc.

    you think worth it?

    That sounds reasonable! Buying a car in Singapore is like renting a car for 10 years anyway. Who offers this long term rental service?

    actually i'm not sure.

    her husband is a car dealer maybe got good lobang for long term rental.

    but i tot $650 per month for a 1.6l mitsubishi lancer which is about 4 years old i think it's quite ok right?

    It is reasonable and it becomes trend this days. Buying a car means you have to maintain it and paid road tax as well. When you take a car on rent, then you have not to worry about its maintenance or paying any kind of tax, so it is worth to take a car on rent.
