Proton & Perodua Xchange Programmes Ending Soon

I got to know from a friend that Proton's Xchange Programme will end this Friday, 6th Nov, 209, while Perodua's Xchange Programme will end on 15th Nov, 2009. I personally feel that these Xchange Programmes as good to participate in as long as your current car has a resale value of less than RM5,000 since the rebate is RM5,000 only.

This friend is forced to purchase a new car because of the new auto policy which aims to take cars above 15 years old off the road, seemingly for safety reasons. My friend's car may be old by is still road worth. Still, it's time to change a new car and the cheapest option is to participate in this program.

Even so, my friend says that he is going to strip his car off all auto accessories that he has installed through the years and plan to install them on his spanking new Proton, when the car is delivered. I understand that it could take as long as two months to receive the rebate voucher. It may even take longer now when people realize that the programmes are coming to an end!
