easternculture on MG ZS Excite $25,990 Driveaway + $2,000 Point-of-Sale Cashback @ Participating MG Dealers

Agree. Ever so slightly faster than ICE. But compare other 2021 cars like Jeep, Ford, Haval H6, Kona, or Kamiq where ~$40k models are…

wheelieb1n on Suzuki Fronx Hybrid from $29,999 Driveaway (Exclude Northern NSW & QLD) @ Suzuki Dealers

Agree there's wild variation in insurance quotes between providers. But, comparable quotes are easy enough to locate for ICE/EVs of similar…

damnable on Suzuki Fronx Hybrid from $29,999 Driveaway (Exclude Northern NSW & QLD) @ Suzuki Dealers

Hard to justify a fossil car (even a hybrid) in the context of the EVs available today. Unless you're bereft of power access or regularly…

Just spoke to Officeworks and to my surprise, they beat the Costco price which they had as still being less than JB. Definitely worth the…

Captain Hindsight on [VIC] Hot Water System Upgrade (after Rebate): Electric to Heat Pump ~$799, Gas to Heat Pump ~$1,199 @ iPromise Australia

Is the HP timer not adjustable to run at the off peak times?

BBF on [VIC] Hot Water System Upgrade (after Rebate): Electric to Heat Pump ~$799, Gas to Heat Pump ~$1,199 @ iPromise Australia

CurlCurl on [Pre Order] Chery Tiggo 4 Pro (Small SUV) Urban from $23,990, Ultimate from $26,990 Drive Away @ Chery Motor

anthp commented on [Pre Order] Chery Tiggo 4 Pro (Small SUV) Urban from $23,990, Ultimate from $26,990 Drive Away @ Chery Motor
It surprises me people are still contemplating ICE vehicles when the price of new/low kilometre EVs is now well below $40k and multiple…
