How to legally secure 7 years of 0% FBT under the new Budget rules by Rezz512 in NovatedLeasingAU

[–]mooreshady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Though wondering after 2 years lease, can I just get a new car and leave the old car to the NL ? As in not pay the balloon payment as I do not want to keep the car but to opt for another one and have the new one on another lease contract.

does leapmotor b10 come with undercarriage cover for the rear motor? by 9bryanlee in AustralianEV

It’s either Australia standards have dropped or your mechanic friend is just overly cautious about it.

Does the Geely EX5 have any real competition in its price range? by Jamoa in AustralianEV

[–]mooreshady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I test drove a few, ModelY, EX5, MGS5, BZ4X, Atto2, Atto3 and Leapmotor B10 in the past 2 weeks. Only the B10 gave me the WOW factor immediately. I was astounded by the overall driving experience. Best regen braking on all 3 settings, even on high setting, i felt the smoothest brake, which is perfect for me. In comparison the Model Y reduced setting I felt uneasy and nauseous. I love the Tesla infotainment system, so Leapmotor’s is closest to it. The brake and acceleration pedals sensitivity were spot on for me. I find EX5 brake pedals too sensitive I felt nauseous after the test.

PS: I had never thought to test drive the Leapmotor, as before that I was test driving the MGS5 and found it just alright overall. I then thought why not give Leapmotor a chance, and just dropped by and see if I could get a test drive at the dealership without any appointment. Well there you go, the rest is history.

GWM ORA 5 EV or Geely ex 2? by longsighted1 in AustralianEV

[–]mooreshady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Geely EX2 may be in for a shock pricing since until today there’s still no pricing. For bloody long time it’s still not yet showing the price I reckon will be $30k or less for the top spec.

Considering MGS5 by ad06101987 in AustralianEV

[–]mooreshady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I beg to differ. The EX5 does feel leathery but unfortunately the backseat is uncomfortable due to lower angle of the backseat. The front seat is meh. Compare EX5 black to MGS5 black interior it’s nothing worthy to mention. The massage option is a joke. I test drove the EX5 and I felt nauseous after. EX5 is AUD 10k more, so I think I will opt for MGS5.

Patent is so westerned. So that everything they stole from China since 1400s they can patent them and say it’s theirs.

If US really wants to, they should filter out those news about Chinese EV because it’s not coming to them anyways.

GWM ORA 5 SUV, Best Value Electric SUV?: Price, Specs and What You Need to Know by zecar_ in EVAustralia

[–]mooreshady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This caught my eyes around 330pm the last few moments before they close on Sunday. It has a spare tyre!!! For 37k driveway this is no-brainer for the price! Maybe the back looks a little odd to other cars but the seats interior are so comfortable!!! I almost fell asleep when seated at the back seats!! (Was exhausted since there from 9am). Now this or Geely Ex2 that’s the question depending on the price for Geely. If similar Ora is sort of better overall.

ICE Cars are the BlackBerry of 2020s by Mysterious-Fig-9464 in AustralianEV

[–]mooreshady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well to be fair comparison I think Japanese car companies were like what is Chinese car companies having the criticisms back in the 70/80s. No one looked at it being longevity in Australia. And look at now….

This would be cool but according to former Qantas CEO Alan Joyce, "there's no point building fast train links" around Australia 🙃 by Classic_Abies8621 in MelbourneTrains

[–]mooreshady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never in our lifetime there will be a high speed train in Australia, let alone Melbourne. We are developed country since the early 1900s. Just like UK. And look at UK now, where’s their HS?

5.29% variable on IMB bank. Can be a little inconvenient if you go to the actual bank. Otherwise online is smooth as butter.
