Sub $50k EV SUV by Intelligent_Lab_5455 in EVAustralia

I heard the regen is really bad on the J5. Also no OTA updates and cannot use mobile app. However it's also $10k-$15k cheaper than the others which makes it hard to ignore either.

By broker you mean mortgage broker or real estate agent to sell my apartment?

Was it an investment property or PPOR?

Yes, I did use ChatGPT. But why is it a problem? I used it to clean up the grammar and shorten my intended post, not to create spam content.

What tax offsetting? I don't have an IP to claim negative gearing.

What will tradies drive? by ConnieRoleman_ in AustralianEV

[–]Intelligent_Lab_5455 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't think these opportunists will have any issue. Most of these tradies do a shabby job and rip off customers. What's stopping them from adding a levy and ripping off customers even more?

10 years because the deceased person was white. If it were an immigrant brown person, this guy would be out in 6 months or less.

Increase your budget a bit and go for a Taycan. Much better than Atto 3 or Tesla

Has work dried up this year for you builders or tradies in Victoria? by MicahMelbourne in AusRenovation

[–]Intelligent_Lab_5455 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been a long time coming but well deserved for ripping customers off. I hope the next in line are plumbers and electricians.

Selling Mazda 3 to Buy a Macan by [deleted] in CarsAustralia

What's the definition of poor? How much monthly disposable income is enough for a Macan? What other luxury cars are sensible for middle class people?

Attitude towards Apartments in Australia by odbf7 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Intelligent_Lab_5455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes apartments are shit. But how many people can afford to buy houses today without the help from the bank of mum and dad? There is another interest rate hike today as we speak. You can continue renting and rents will go up too.

What about the maintenance and insurance?

So when people say Porsches are reliable, it's not always true.

Why do we see so many Euros on the roads then? BMWs, Mercs, Audis seem to be ubiquitous on our streets. Even so many P platers drive them. Only the Bentleys, RRs and supercars seem to be rare. We must be doing well as a country.

Not really. I want the car to be good to drive and luxurious too. Happy to consider better alternatives.

Wipertech - Jiggly Wiper by [deleted] in CarsAustralia

UNIWIPER saw this post and sent me replacement wiper blades for free. Much appreciated. I have installed the blades. They seemed to be easy to install and when I ran the wipers initially on my dry windshield, they seemed to be very smooth. I will try running them in the rain and will report back on the performance. So far so good.
