  1. Since the leasing company has the absolute ownership no such letter is required. They will transfer the vehicle under their name and then sell through tender
  2. You will need the ID copies directors who have signed the no objection and MTA 06
  3. If you have the removed sticker you can directly get from RMV. If not you need to apply with a police complaint entry to RMV
  4. Hi all, There was this Austin car that was owned by my Great Grandfather and then handed over long the generations to my Father. We fell in to hard times when my Father was down with cancer and had to dispose the vehicle. I am interested in finding the vehicle again and purchase it if possible, Any suggestions on how to locate the vehicle is much appreciated. Vehicle Number is EY-6304
  5. Can i have the contact no of this place pls. I have same sorta work to be done (Not that bad though)
  6. Any one has experience of General Tyre's. The dealer said they were from France and cost wise its 50K for 255/35 19.
  7. My car got locked from inside. Some how ignition switched off due to idle stop and my wife kept the key inside with my dog and gone inside to make the payment to the Vet. Dog has stepped on the lock button. Had to rush with the spare key. This was a 2019 Audi. So i don't think they are better
  8. Agents - Service cost somewhere between 25-40K @ every 10K. (They now charge even for cleaning clothes, Excuse given in Covid and clothes are neatly packed and handed back to you ) Break pads wear out somewhere around 25K and cost me 65K to replace. Also had a petrol leak. Cost me 5K for the repair and 38K for carrier charges ) Mind you the vehicle imported through a friend and serviced by Bosch and then at the Agents. My last two vehicles were a Vezel and a Mazda 06. The Audi maintenance cost is higher than both vehicles combined. So overall you need to have spare cash in hand and since yours is a used one be ready.
  9. The car is already transferred to my name and as i said earlier i will not be selling the vehicle any time before me owning it for six months. I do pay income tax as per returns filed by me but no i have not estimated the profit from vehicle sale because at that time my estimated income was from employment and deposit interest. so may be if and when i sell the vehicle, i may have to increase the tax payment during that quarter.
  10. Well i do not understand (Of course, me being the a$$hole) how prices can be jacked up by me buying a vehicle and then selling. There is a supply shortfall resulting in high demand. This is a cycle that has been occurring in Sri Lanka. Of course prices will drop when the supply normalize but not in the near future due to issues with BOP. Reality is vehicles are a good investment for the next 06 months. I don't mind some idiot in UK calling me an A$$hole as long as i speculate - invest and gain or loose a few bucks from money ethically earned and ethically invested.
  11. At the moment cars are a better investment. That's why i bought it for cash. Money at bank yield only 5% max. and will drop after the end of quarter. property market is also dropping and is not liquid. Investment funds are yielding at 9-10% and will drop further. So in the current context i pre-empted and bought a car and the return at current rate is 10%. Personally i do not need to show off with a 2010 Benz as i own 2018 Audi A5 as the daily runner. I can only laugh at these generalized comments of the pundits
  12. Actually currently the vehicle only run about 8Km daily taking my kid to pre school and back. So it is not an essential requirement and is disposable
  13. My E200 bought three weeks back is receiving offers for 750K more from sales buggers. Unfortunately i promised the previous owner that im going to personally use the vehicle, hence they sold me the vehicle at a much lower price. So im gonna keep it for some time.
  14. I think You should try the other joint recommended by the members. Not worth spending 50K which is what they charge for the initial service. Subsequent services will cost you far less. My sunroof repair and assemble cost me somewhere around 4K
  15. I have taken my Audi to D*MO Bosch/Vishwa and then to Drive 1 for various requirements and decided to stick with Drive one I would not recommend Bosch - Shitty service Vishwa is okish. Mind you i have done some minor repairs with them for rat attacks. Observing their work it seems they have lost focus on quality. Drive one - I did vehicle service plus some minor repairs (Sunroof and few other stuff). They did a good job plus cost was not that inflated i thought. lalana is also ex Vishwa motors i think but not sure.
  16. yes you can
  17. I would definitely change those wheels, Congrats on the new aquisition
  18. Hi Guys got a new addition to the family. Bought from the first owner who has used it for 10 years and agent maintained throughout and only 89k on the clock for 10 years. Two Germans in the family ?
  19. There are Nissan Patrol Y61 manuals also going around which im looking at buying. Prices range from 7Mn to 9Mn would be a real off roader.
  20. sensor for what purpose
  21. Few organizations are taking work from home seriously. For eg. j********i Insurance has 200 people working from home and has emptied two floors at head office. Abans is offering work from home solutions to staff then there is Hemas group. Only thing to see is are Sri Lankans disciplined enough to work from home.
  22. Not related. I have an Audi that is maintained at Agents. I asked them on Transmission oil change and what they said was change is not required.
  23. Quiet

    Looking for a LEAF

    go around vehicle yards of finance companies. You will find plenty at dirt cheap prices. Lessee's have given up the vehicles rather than paying lease rentals as it makes economic sense. Even at dirt cheap prices they do not move
