January 2009 PQP For Cat B is $4,273 !! :clap:

Will go below $3k? :la:

[Guest MBfallshirmjager]

Nobody expected the 2nd bid to be@$200 for Cat B COE. Due to that, it had an impact on the PQP because its somewhat linked. In fact, it inadvertently brought down the aggregate for Feb's PQP on average of 3 months. We got nothing to lose so might as well just wait and see if after CNY,we'll get lucky again? ??? If the demand for Cat B new cars is somewhat sluggish yet again then I should think we're able to expect a another drop of the PQP? If so, then we can go for the kill! :death: Whatever the result, we have sufficient time to react. Lets keep all our fingers & toes crossed and hope for the best! :pray:

Cheerios!

Yup MBfalls, post CNY PQP looks likely to be heading south... Christmas coming sooner than expected.. looks like we'll be having winter in July. :bboyspin:

[Guest mr w124]

Yup. Great news. However , we're still riding at the back of the 8k plus coe from nov 08 as part of the 3 month avg. nothing to lose if we wait till the next bidding. unless it hit 7 k plus, pqp will still drop a bit. i say we wait.

[Guest mr w124]

By the way mike, have collected the car. Silky smooth (almost) gear changes. but really sluggish man. totally like no power. think need to go servicing. its 8k since last syn oil change. n the oil lamp has started to come on n off. think low on engine oil.

[Guest mr w124]

Well guys, looks like pqp is abt $3,004 if i am not wrong. anybody going to renew? i think we should wait a while more

[g8crasher]

[g8crasher]

Anyway the latest PQP is $3,004

[Guest MB98]

My current balance COE value is $12k plus. If I renew another COE at $3004, will my current paper value start at $3004 or still remain at $12k plus until the COE value depreciate.

My current 16V tank is in very good low mileage condition (But balance ard 4yrs plus only)

Considering to pay & sell it off to upgrade

[g8crasher]

If you renew now you forgo the balance of your current COE. No point for your case. Sell off and consider an upgrade ?

[Guest mr w124]

u going to renew yet g8crasher? pqp same as the lasround. if we wait, we need to get lower than $6501 for the next round. plus we lose our old value. mine is abt 5.9k now.

[g8crasher]

Looks like your 124 is on a 25k CoE when last renewed ? Sama sama 5+k balance ATM

[keltanky]

GO GO GO! :punk1: :punk1: :punk1:

[Guest qes78]

Based on the values here

http://www.lta.gov.sg/corp_info/doc/COE_Result_2005_2009.pdf

I think we can still wait cause the December values quite high.

Anyways, we can see if next month go up or not to act. We can always choose the March one again (3004) even if it goes up

[Guest starnite]

GUys, wonder if our machine can last another 10 years? When do u think the gearbox and engine is due for overhaul? Under Normal usage and normal servicing... can it last another 10 years?

[g8crasher]

The W124 will go on and on so long as you continue to adhere to a strict maintenance schedule. There is no "due date" for an overhaul till your shifts get rougher and your exhaust starts spewing white smoke

My 18 yr old 8V has done approximately 218,000kms. Just had my gearbox rebuilt last year. The engine is still chugging along fine. I usually send her in for a service and tune up between 7,000-10,000km intervals.

Many other members cars here have surpassed 300,000kms and run like a dream. :thumbsup:

[Guest alumetal]

YEAP I AGREED

w124 was made to last a probably 25 years .... depending on maintainance.

what impt is probably the body.... as engine parts are plentiful.

[g8crasher]

Get ready for PQP March 09... 4th March @ 4pm.

[Guest MBfallshirmjager]

4th March@4pm. That would be the first bid for COE Cat B....if only the combined 1st & 2nd bid is <$9K....then we stand a chance of hitting below $3K PQP. Lets all keep our fingers crossed....! :pray: :bboyspin:
