This is the second video I've watched, Steve is such a funny and nice guy - real lovely the way he speaks Cantonese, which sounds exactly like the way my BBC friend speaks Cantonese!
A thing that I would like to add is that if you are getting a JDM car in the UK, make sure to get the underside of the car undercoated as you know our winter roads are very harsh with the salt on the roads and most JDM cars do not have enough protection on the underside so, unless you want a rust bucket after a few years... its worth asking that at the dealership or getting it done as soon as you buy the car! i was lucky when I bought a stepwgn from the specialist i was able to talk them into giving it to me for free :) (Although this only really applies to imported cars, the ones they sell domestically will be fine.)
V funny 😄 thx for sharing! My first car is also VW Golf & I bought it for hk$8k - it gave me a great value and you don’t need to feel shame about it 😁. Probably 🇬🇧 cities have more flat roads than hk so you don’t really need a powerful car in UK - of course I a lot of fun when it’s affordable 😍
Now is actually the best time to buy a new car post covid 19 lockdown Some have zero interest rates deposit contribution free service courtesy car first three payments paid! Just ask they can only say no Bigger savings if you buy what the trade calls a demonstrator car where they let potential customers try a test drive prior to purchase These cars will have a few thousand miles on the clock which is no big deal Bear in mind a new car on day one loses one third of its value being second hand Any car between 6 to 12 months from a authorised dealer will have its remaining warranty (when new 3 years) or you can buy an extended Warranty If in doubt look at the trade bible for price guide GLASS MOTOR GUIDE Can also go to We Buy Any Car website but caution as they are very mean with their valuations Never feel you have to make decision on the spot,,, At times go outside your home base to another near by town where there is a dealership who needs to get sales for survival and will bend backwards to get your sale As they also have lower overheads In the event of you buying a second hand car not from an authorised dealer have the Automobile Association (AA) DO AN ENGINE CHECK This will save you from having post purchase headache of astronomical repair bills as superficial examination and looks even after test drive may not reveal any Problems All cars over three years need a MOT (ministry of transport) certification which you will need to purchase road tax Expired and unrenewed MOT RENDERS YOUR INSURANCE POLICY VIOD
Thanks for your sharing again. Just curious how you would think about getting a smaller Land Rover (e.g. Freelander 2) in the UK particularly in terms of maintenance and reliability?
