More than 20 unhappy car buyers gather at car dealership
Published on Dec 15, 2014 5:11 PM By Kok Xing Hui
SINGAPORE - More than 20 people gathered outside a car dealership at MacPherson Road on Monday, after the dealership failed to deliver the cars they had bought. They wanted to look for the owner, whom they say have been uncontactable for a few days.
This group said they had bought cars from Volks Auto Pte Ltd in the last few months but the cars were not delivered even though their car delivery dates had come and gone.
Their stories followed the same plot: Buyers saw the dealership's advertisement, bought cars for up to $10,000 cheaper than other parallel importers, paid a deposit but were fed excuses about why the cars were not ready when they went to collect them months later.
One such buyer, a 63-year-old who gave his name only as Mr Fong, listed the excuses he received: his Toyota Harrier was stuck in immigration or it was with the Land Transport Authority for inspection.
Mr Fong's car was supposed to be in his possession in mid October.
The Straits Times was shown copies of contracts from angry buyers. The frustration was clear among those gathered outside the building: one man shouted at a security guard.
About 50 of these buyers found each other by going to the shop, which has been closed since Saturday, or through the mycarforum.com online forum.
A WhatsApp group chat has been formed where they discuss actions they could take and a separate group had gone to make a police report.

Hi there,
Sorry to hear that.
I can imagine that the anti-VolksAuto Whatapps group is probably cautious in accepting anonymous mobile number into their group so as to prevent VolksAuto spies into the group.
As part of the verification process, it may help if you can
(1) scan the Volks Auto receipt from your family member,
(2) digitally remove personal data from the receipt, and
(3) post it here first.
Concurrently, at least one member from the anti-VolksAuto Whatsapp group may wish to register as a user in this forum so that the link-up is possible.
Putting more heads together would likely yield more constructive options against the sole director/shareholder of Volks Auto Pte. Ltd. named "Alvin Loo Mun Yu", NRIC no.: S7837923E, seeking justice for those affected.
