Can I bring a car with me

Moving to Singapore? Ask our regular expats in Singapore questions on relocation and their experience here. Ask about banking, employment pass, insurance, visa, work permit, citizenship or immigration issues.

Leasing with this budget is no problem.

My colleague was leasing a Nissan Murano for ~S$2k per month over a 2-year contract. Me, i bought second hand Legacy with monthly repayments ~S$1k per month plus costs, all in for about S$1.5k per month.
