Hello Friends
Before the question, let me explain my situation![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm 22 years old now and have moved to malaysia for nearly 5 years. Recently my dad decided to ship our family's old BMW 318i (year 2000) to Malaysia from my home country.
And worst case scenario, 'seems that' he expect me to pay for the maintenance of the car and other annual payment which I've no idea how much as I'm not malaysian and never drive before.. My salary is 5000 ringgit and I don't know with that salary I would be able to maintain BMW car.. So before he shipped it over here , I need to make sure I can at least afford the maintenance and other payment fee.
Car details:
BMW 318i, Year 2000 , 1895cc , Mileage 65000 (never use that's why my dad want to ship it over here)
Question:
1. Roughly how much I need to pay per Service/Maintenance?
2. How many times I need to service in a year ? is it per 5000 km ? or 10000 km ?
3. What is the service normally doing ?
4. What other 'hidden cost' I expect to pay per year ? (i've calculated the road tax and insurance to be around 1500 , correct me if i'm wrong)
Basically I just want to know with my current salary, i'll be able to handle that car or not haha.. Thanks a lot.
