I've ordered an MY2019 First Edition, T5, in White, with Lave Interior.
There were rumours of a price increase for the MY19 version of the FE Bob. Did they quote you a different list price?

No, they quoted me on the 2018 price list, I am half expecting, if successful, a hike in the price, I'll just have to wait and see.

My dealer was told yesterday that they were very low on T5s, if correct, then it all depends on the demand this weekend. He's hopeful they'll sort something out, I'm not so! Actually, I wouldn't mind if they decided to reconfigure to a T4 engine.

No, no mistake by the OP, tax on cars in Singapore is very high, as it is in quite a few SE Asian countries. I think the tax is even higher in Vietnam.

Actualli managed a better discount..
paid SG$188 000 but still a huge sum.....a base T5 Momentum is SG$170 000 after discount...felt the 18k premium fr the extras on the first edition R design was worth it.

Hello there
First time Volvo owner here, yesterday I ordered a Fusion red T5 First Edition with 20" wheels, apparently one of the last still available in the country, it was pre-ordered by the broker mid January so half the wait already gone, should get it around mid April hopefully.
Got a very good discount as well.
First Edition T5 in Fusion Red with 20" Alloys.
Now Sold
