Run to Highlands:
I'm not sure about next week, I'll confirm by next week.

Janille can't make it this Sunday. She is willing to join the run next week though.

darnoc,
Sorry, I keep forgetting to check the amount on my CP. My car is in the shop now, I'll go there tomorrow and I'll check.

Macky,
Used cars, depending on how old, require much less import taxes. :smile:

eddieboyll,

sorry can't make it i have a previous engagement set na kasi.

im running into some obstacles with my mini purchase. is there anyway of assuring myself the CP amount is enough or is it really that way with grey markets?

i'm not quite sure about the amount but mine has been checked thoroughly and my unit is okay. what mode of payment are you going to purchase your mini? maybe your bank could check it for you? or have someone from take a look at the unit and check all the papers... that's what i did.:smile:

Darnoc,
Just checked my CP. The amount is roughly P210K. What is indicated in the CP of the Cooper your buying? I guess it would be a bit lower since masmababa ang price ng Cooper compared to the S. But it should be around that figure. If you trust/know the seller then there's nothing to worry about. Goodluck!

john,

the amount on the CP is around 170k. that's my problem i dont know the seller personally. its "auto stadium" on Q. Ave. and medyo magulo din kasi kausap. una sabi sa kin...2004 model na pinasok 2005. then when i saw the docs pinasok pala yung car last quarter of 2003 then it was registered march 2004(on the CR) if i hadn't brought up that detail di din niya sasabihin. so who knows what else he's not telling me.

darnoc,

check the decal by the side of the door jamb driver's side below the door catches - it should indicate the manufacturing date so you can verify the model.

the VIN (5 letters 5 numbers 2 letters 5 numbers) number can also tell you that in coded form but you will have to get that from the OR/CR or in the engine bay by the left shocks strut or right side windshield from the outside (US model only). it's also a good way to check the VIN if it is a US version as there is a service on the internet (carfax.com) to give you the car's history - to check if it is a lemon or a stolen car or not.

john's veins are popping due to extreme ways of controlling his ultra tricked out mcs. you would need extra muscle to handle. joke only john. as it is my compliment to you coz from my knowledge you own the fastest cooper s in the philippines.
