Taxis will be taken out of COE bidding process from Aug: LTA
What do u think ? COE will drop at least 10k ?
Obviously MAS cannot lose face of targeting 4 to 4.5% inflation rate

Pay what your bid will be next.
Long overdue change
govt trying hard to bring down inflation number
taxi fare will come down?
Wah lau. Taxis take out from Cat A and Cat A quota remain the same? This effectively means more cars on the road liao lor. More jam. Taxis cause more jam than private cars since they ply the road almost 24 hours. Those who paid high COE for their Cat A cars must be fuming mad. Haha. If want to take taxis out from Cat A, then Cat A quota has to come down and allocate some to Cat E. i hope out govt know how to make the necessary adjustments, .ie. deregistration for taxis should now be moved to Cat E and therefore the Cat A quota should be reduced (shifted to Cat E) as well. Or else vehicle growth rate go up again.
Oh great..... One of the best news from LTA in a Long while.
Now...can we cooperate to bring Coe down?
Going to tell husband to chiong n buy new car when Coe comes down...... Cannot miss the boat again.
2009 when I bot my new car, he did not want to change car at that time.
You wait long long!!! There are a million reasons to raise the fares but only 1 reason to lower the fare, which is forced by law...Originally Posted by ommmm

You are sharp. In fact, taxi companies need to ramp up their fleet size as required by LTA. The old taxis that need to be replaced when it reached EOL will just pay prevailing CAT A COE while new fleet will get their Coe from CAT E.Originally Posted by gfoo
Whether CAT will drop or not? Anybody guess. Lots of Euro cars with 1.6L turbo going be launched in next few months.....starting this weekend from Merc with the B200.
Will the low cat a Coe attract the cat b driver to downgrade to cat a ?Originally Posted by gfoo
Some may downgrade.Originally Posted by zzz1
But once you have driven big cars, it is difficult to downgrade.
Cm1 for Coe ? But one word to summarize LPPL

LPPL = Dick was hit by the ball he was playing.Originally Posted by phantom_opera
Maybe MR B should close his CANNOT MAKE IT thread "Property price is coming down fast"... & create a new thread "Cat A car price is coming down fast"... maybe stands a chance to prove he is right this time round
if borderline driving a 1.8l or 2.0l i dun see why not - they are not too far from a Cat A. but absolute no-nos for those who love engines, and driving.Originally Posted by zzz1
But some 1.6 cars are as big as 2.0cc.. like the 1.6 Volvo S60 or Peugeot 508 or even 1.6 MPV Citroen C4 Grand Picasso & 1.4 Opel Zafira is also very spaciousOriginally Posted by buttercarp
Everybody please bid $1
True, is hard to unless a good model come along the way in cat a.Originally Posted by buttercarp
In that sense , it will not pent down the cat b Coe muchOriginally Posted by gfoo
left hand pass to RIGHT hand...
no cat b buyer will buy an underpowered conti so such borderline cases are rare. if you are buying a massa or mac or porky, who cares if its cat a or b as long as its performs well. this will b very good news for TDI makers, bad news for inbetweeners like 1, 3, A, B, COriginally Posted by zzz1
Garment should really review the COE and focus on usage rate with the upcoming GPS-ERP system.
i got 2 cars..one 2 years other 3 years left...so praying hardOriginally Posted by flagship74
if you are running a business and every 2 weeks you earn MORE AND MORE $$$$.....why would you care...Originally Posted by DC33_2008
sorry to dash your hope, it will take another 4y because in August they reduce less than plannedOriginally Posted by radha08
the era of cheap COE is over even in next 10y, with so much investment in CCL, DTL, ERL, TSL ... u think they will let COE drop to $1??
