What Happened To Tax Reduction

[aamarakoon]

Today I went to I***ra Traders - kurunegala branch.

Petrol Vanette - 2.55 M

Suzuki Every Join - 2 M

Same place when I inquired a few months back

Petrol Vanette - 1.9M

Every Join- 1.5M

So does it mean tax reduction actually increases prices? Or do the salesmen take us for fools?

I checked a few more places. NO PRICE REDUCTION.

Any place you know to be reasonable?

The tax reduction is on new imports. Looks like you're looking at used vehicles. There is a lot of debate right now about how long the tax reduction will last, whether or not it will affect the used car market, etc. I'm surprised by that steep increase within one month though, there's no plausible reason I can think of for that.

The Buddy vans never went for those prices not that i know of

[aamarakoon]

I'm referring to unregistered vehicles.

I could not believe the prices my self.

Although the tax reduction affects new vehicles, logically, previous imports should also come down in price. Otherwise the importers wouldn't be able to sell them.

wait some more days and see. This buddy van prices should have impact if we get recon vans. Cos it should definitely fit in below 2M bracket.

[hakjay]

Buddy vans should be below 1Mn for recon :violent-smiley-099:

Mr. A Amarakoon,

Today I checked up the cost of Buddy vans With two dealers high end will go up to 1.8M and all available with dealers are not high end semi options they are 1.6M.

Vehicle dealers are trying to make maximum what they can before stocks come please be patient for another 30 days then new stocks will come with new duty costs.
