ixeo : :thefinger: ZTH has been quite quiet. A little off-topic banter isn't going to be that bad in "Car Talk" section.

Btw, I know of a certain 5-series Hartge Diesel that'll be for sale for RM71K soon. Car has been completely fixed up and everything is just buy and drive condition. 600nm+ of torque on tap and auto. Will eat your Golf for break lunch and dinner until next year. Comfort, size and everything. Only thing is the CF steering was stolen so it's using a standard 5-Series steering.

6-0-0nm turbo-charged torques goddamit! And that's with conservative boosting. Crank it up to the max and get 800nm+!

It's about 2.1k/yr right? Doesn't matter if gasoline or diesel, is it?
RM2.2k/year. Its madness. That amount of money can buy 4 donuts.

2.2k road tax is peanut for big boss of a cumpany since they enjoy 5-digit salary plus benefits. Heck, the big boss may not even pay a single cents as all the bill is covered by kumpany.

Only tar-kung-chai have to fork out from their own pocket for that amount.

But I heard got loopholes to get away with the lower road tax if got agent/connection to do over there and mail it here. Is it true? Few weeks ago I text a showroom who advertised a 3.0 Mark X and they claim they can arrange the road tax there so only pay the same like the 2.5ltr.

Ya that's right. Get those specialized runners to settle for you and depending on the car, you might pay only 1/3 of the price like this Hartge Diesel I'm drooling all over. Bloody hell, 600nm is something you don't forget easily.
