    Oil change intervals in SA

    It's clear that 15,000KM oil changes will get you through the warranty period, but if you either really like the car and want to look after it as well as you can, or if you just really want it to last as long as possible, then what? Here's some interesting anecdotal info: My Toyota has...

    Oil change intervals in SA

    In South Africa, most cars with a petrol engine have a service interval of 15,000KM or more. If you do a few quick Google searches on the matter, the consensus seems to be that oil changes should be at around the 7,500 to 10,000KM mark. In many cases (especially with slightly older, but not...

    Sold a bike, new owner wants ID & proof of residence even though I handed in the yellow form.

    I sold my bike to someone in Oct last year. I handed in the yellow NCO form and got a receipt. The new owner only went to the department in the last few days to get the paperwork sorted out and the license disc had expired already (I think the end of November). It turns out he is selling it to...

    What are the rules around writing off a vehicle?

    Go have a look at the Euroncap crash tests for the Yaris, it got 5 stars and the data for occupant safety was very good. The 2nd hand car option is similar to buying a new car for me. I don't want to spend R250k to buy something in the league of what I already own and trust, except with some...

    What are the rules around writing off a vehicle?

    Very true about older Japanese vehicles and modern econo shitbx. I will look into sourcing some parts 2nd hand. Thanks for this suggestion. I'd be happy to put a 2nd hand part in that's in good condition, especially if it's not a mechanical / wear and tear component.

    What are the rules around writing off a vehicle?

    Thank you for the suggestion and your input in general. I tried this route but the the buyback amount was high enough that it resulted in a lower payout than the amount they offered to pay me to fix it myself. As mentioned above, I tried this route but it wasn't viable based on the figures they...

    What are the rules around writing off a vehicle?

    I had an accident recently and my insurance company informed me that the car is "uneconomical to repair". They want to pay me R55K (minus excess). I got a quote from the bodyshop that they chose and it's under R55K. It's a car that I have owned since it was new and I am still happy with it. I...
