Singapore - An S free zone?
My work just treated me to 3 weeks in Singapore - An interesting place
I was really surprised that throughout my time I didn't once see an S - Seems strange as there are a lot of modded cars out there - Integras & RX8 are very popular Taking into account that I was a complete drunkard most evenings - here's a couple of very poor quality pics I snapped: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...mg=330261&md=1 https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...mg=330260&md=1 On a side note I got a call from Bob Gerard whilst I was in Singapore to let me know that my S is finally built and is now on route from Japan to UK (via Cyprus) - Still got to wait until the end of July though |

I bet there is one there somewhere! I saw a few Ferarri's and Skylines when I was there.
Cars cost about 3x as much as they do over here - extremely expensive. And from memory you can only keep them 3 or 5 years from new! Great place though, no crime and very safe. MB |

MB I saw quite a few Ferraris and MX5 are so common it's scary I was told cars are really pricey and max age is 10 years but few last that long - They are taxed on age and it goes up a lot every year The law is super strict (don't know what impact this has on driving) - but the zero tolerance approach to vandalism, litter, drugs etc (Death sentance for drug dealers - Whippings for vandalism & litter) makes it a crime free and more importantly a chav free zone I could easilly live there - And now my work is sending me back again next month |
I spotted a late model silver S2000 in Orchard Road, Singapore about 3 months ago.

For unauthorised consumption of drugs there is a maximum of 10 years' jail or fine of S$20,000. The upside is that Singapore is a very safe place to walk around at any time of day or night. I love the place and a looking forward to my next trip there in Mar 07. And you're right ... there is a distinct lack of chavs. Ain't it grand? :) Just don't try holding a rally or public meetings of more than 4 people. Standing on a soapbox will get you arrested quick smart. They haven't quite got the freedom of speech thing down pat yet to the dismay of many locals.
