I'm not scaring you guys, here is what I got from the Land Transport Authority website:12 months roadtax for car with capacity of 2000ccPetrol Engine : S$1214 (appx RM3000)Disel Engine Euro IV/ Euro V : S$3714 (appx RM9100)Diesel Engine without Euro V : S$8498 ( appx RM 21,000)Isn't the above figures ridiculous?
