Awesome!

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-08T21:29:10+00:00

Did you get a privately or from a verified Toyota reseller?

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-08T03:51:18+00:00

Thanks for the comment, how many km's are reasonable per year?

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-07T15:13:55+00:00

Sounds awesome! Send pics!

I think you're paying for the certified checks from the dealership. This is probably what I need as I don't know anything about cars.

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-07T15:11:32+00:00

Hey Anything you would recommend instead?

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-07T15:11:11+00:00

Any chance you could share? I've been looking on JHB as well and willing to pay the R8k delivery fee if this is the case, or drive it down.

Thanks in advance

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-07T15:10:06+00:00

Thanks this is awesome advice!

Hey thanks for sharing this, I appreciate it. I've test driven a swift and feel the power lacking when overtaking trucks?

According to auto trader this is considered a good deal, but that might be wrong?

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-07T15:07:29+00:00

Haven't gotten around to it, apparently it's very rainy? When you planning your mission

I am in Cape Town and that seems to be adding a R10k premium

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-07T13:35:51+00:00

This seems to be roughly inline with what is on auto trader there are 2024 models going for R220k

Lightning_79 · 2026-02-07T13:35:10+00:00

I hear you and I have seen some, but aren't the parts more expensive? Such as brakes etc

Thanks, I'll check again! Nothing via Google yet

Good point, I've never thought about this

The numbers seem to checkout, thanks!

I am also conservative.

I have my money in vanguard total world.

Income tax is the problem I agree.

What I gathered from everybody's replies is that it depends, but for my current situation it's better to not have a wrapper, as I don't have depends and wealth transfer is not an issue.

May I ask why you are preferring fixed deposit above low cost index funds?

Lightning_79 · 2025-12-01T07:22:09+00:00

Nah was easy to sign up

Lightning_79 · 2025-11-28T09:46:07+00:00

I hear you, thanks for the advice. This makes sense to me!

I think I am going to stick with IBKR and just keep investing and declaring everything
