  • How much does a car cost in Turkey? (Türkçe altyazılı seçebilirsiniz)
    The price of second hand cars might shock you but its not all bad news!
    In this video we compare prices with the UK and try to give an insight into the used car market in both countries, looking at a few popular makes and their prices.

    When you consider the minimum wage, the price gap actually becomes even more ridiculous. For that BMW for example, a Turkish person has to save for over 100 months of minimum wage salary without spending anything. In UK it would be about 10 months. So the price isn't 4 times more in Turkey, actually its 10 times more.

    I purchased my second hand Toyota Corolla about 4 years ago and paid 25,000 Turkish Lira. A similar car with similar mileage now costs 75,000TL. In theory, my car has made more money than the bank interest on my savings!

    I like these price comparisons. I used to live in Thailand and cars there are similar price to Turkey, but insurance is very cheap and the cost of repairs and servicing is literally a tenth of the UK price. Also depreciation is much less in Thailand. So simple comparisons on just the purchase price do not accurately reflect the actual cost of ownership very well. Having said that, UK and US are the cheapest places in the world for cars.

      I dont think any country beats car prices when it comes to car prices, there is 200-225%+ tax on cars which is unheard of in any decent country , especially in comparison to wages... the cheapest cars ( tofas sahin, and tofas dogan) from 1990s ( its miracle that those are still in one piece ) can cost like 20-30 months of basic wage. As far as brand new cars dont think there is anything less than 150k in liras, which is 5-6 years worth of basic wage.

    I notice that electric scooters and three wheel vehicles are getting more and more popular each time we visit. Do the same rules about registration apply to those as from what o gather they a vastly cheaper..

However, only non-Turks can drive it and you can only sell to non-turkish citizens. However, you can eventually register it and pay the large tax bill and this opens the car to all.

I think cars in the UK, especially second hand, are cheap than most of the rest of Europe! One thing though, that BMW Z3 was actually a 2000 model. The ‘W’ in the registration being the year of registration signifier, W was from 1/3/2000 to 31/8/2000. The (7)59 is just part of the number plate, an easy mistake to make if you’re not used to the registration system. It was only on 1/9/2001 that the signifier became numbers, starting with ‘51’

    A 2015 golf bought new for 88,000tl but now 6 years old and100,000km is now worth 200,000tl now! However that may sound great, but to replace it with a new 2021 model of the same spec, it will cost 480,000tl.

      If you don’t have residence you can keep it up to 2 years, but if you leave the country, you must leave it at the customs or take it with you, there’s a lot of red tape and it’s not really cost-effective either. It costs about £1500 to bring a car to Turkey in fuel and tolls. and eventually you’ve got to take it back.

Are car requirements are different for retirees and what are they? Another question, if one of the owners of the car is not of retirement age, would this matter? Than you in advance.

    just moved to turkey from the uk after 40 years in motor trade . it took some time to get my head round the prices here but one very good thing is if you bought a car 5 years ago today example renault megane 2007 in 2017 you would have paid 30000 trl about £7000 and today they sell for 100 000 trl about £7000 so other than repairs and running cost 5 years and no loss of value . have just bought 1998 renault 12 no electronics or electric windows parts are on the shelf and dont cost the earth if you have the skill to maintain an mgb then a renault 12 toros should be no problem .also tofas from the same era are a good bet only downside no aircon

      The special consumption tax is only put onto cars when they are brand-new or imported, but the owner of that car when he comes to sell it obviously wants to recoup the money spent on the tax so the price stays high

      Is that based on the retail price from abroad or the price Turkey asks? In other words, if you would import a car from the UK like you showed and you have a 1.6 liter engine or smaller you pay 80% based on what? The price you paid in the UK? I am wondering. Thanks for the great video! Subbed as well!

    • @omercicekk
      @omercicekk Před 2 lety +5

      Import or domestic manufactured. All cars have 80-200% "special taxation" before the VAT(18%). Lets say honda civic, ford focus or C class. They all have 1.6 engine, lets say cost of the car is (X+(0.8*X))* 1.18= 2.15X . In other words taxation is more than the car's price. This was just the generic car, if you happen to buy 2liter its 110%~. Real deal starts after 2liter which is usually 220% special tax and it cost around 280% of the car. So you are paying 380K$ for 100K $ car. If you convert 380.000 USD to turkish lira, result is impossible to buy.

    Cars are already expensive, they put 2-3 times tax on it. The government earns more than it produces. Although the average salary in Turkey is 5000 TL, everyone has more than 200.000 TL vehicles because it has become normal now. Average search on roads. The price is around 400.000TL, that is 35.000 Pounds.

      @@akhilpadamata1438 The minimum wage is 2850 TL, that is, 320 dollars. 40% of the population receives this salary. Generally unskilled work. Waitress, cleaner, security person, store sales assistant and many such jobs. If it is a top office in a workplace, that is, people such as marketing manager, sales manager can get an average of 7000TL, while a quality brand can cost more than 15000TL. The salaries of those working in the state are also generally low, but the pension can be almost as much as the salary they receive. Doing your own business is both the most profitable and the most harmful. Getting started is important because it is very difficult. No support. But if you get the job done, you can be considered rich. There are actually a lot of rich people in Turkey, but there are also a lot of poor people. So I think if you earn a salary of more than 30.000 TL, you can live in the world at normal standards.
