      That's not a pick-up… I'll get my coat.

          And that is cheap compared us here in Finland with 50% car tax.

          HAHAHAHA and i was born and raised in singapore. no other country can beat the tax there.

          https://www.lta.gov.sg/content/ltaweb/en/roads-and-motoring/owning-a-vehicle/costs-of-owning-a-vehicle/tax-structure-for-cars.html

          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 😉

                You probably, however, are more interested in the experiences of an actual secondhand Range Rover buyer, so this series of articles might be helpful.

                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.

                  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  😉 😉 😉

                                      I agree that it's a pretty bad looking car, and I'm personally a fan of the Nissan truck it was based on as well as the Tacoma that the front end was obviously styled after.  Something just seems off.  I wish they would have gone back in time and modeled it as a G-Wagon with a truck bed instead of offering an ML350 with a truck bed…
