Our Cars (dream or actual)
-
I have no personal experience with Range Rovers, so discount this as you see fit. My brother owned a Discovery, the purchase of which he called "the biggest mistake I've ever made." Mind you, this is a man who is divorced, failed out of college, and has a tattoo of Tigger. Yes, the cartoon tiger from Winnie The Pooh adorns his left deltoid for the rest of his life, and the purchase of a vehicle was a bigger mistake.
You probably, however, are more interested in the experiences of an actual secondhand Range Rover buyer, so this series of articles might be helpful.

HAHAHAHA and i was born and raised in singapore. no other country can beat the tax there.
About 150% Additional registration fee of original manufacture value. plus Certificate of Entitlement of owning a vehicle which is a bidding rate. currently that is around 50-60k depending on your engine output. and 20% duty. :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

And the funny thing is everyone is still driving Lamborghini's, Ferrari's and other exotics.
I lived in Singapore for around 5 years and was always amazed at people who had cars. Really no need for it. -
We pay car tax of 10-50% depending on emissions. (I'm always at 50%). Tax is calculated on top of estimated market price of the car plus sales tax 24%. Additionally we pay annual tax on using the car and $6,24 per gallon for gas.
My range rover supercharged is tagged around $330,000 at the local dealer.
Beat that

First comment is gold… Gold, Jerry!..
Don’t overestimate parts reliability on Toyota Land Cruisers, Doug. I had to replace the hand brake on one of my 100 series at 315,000 miles.

Really no need for it.no definitely not much of a need. apart from that top 1%, most people use it as an ease of convenience especially when they have families. with a country that small, the public transport is what i'd say pretty decent. though for lamborghini/ ferrari's and exotic owners, when was that ever a need? hahaha.

wow. i never expect car prices in most other countries to be that high, especially when you really need it to travel. though most scandanavian countries have a very good quality of life, so i'd expect even the public transport to be pretty decent.
that said, not sure if it's the exact same model, but this is $511,999sgd so about 380,000usd. http://www.sgcarmart.com/new_cars/newcars_overview.php?CarCode=11237
