Car rental evergreen

 

Your score

Mostly As

Toyota Previa – Family First
You’re after a safe, reliable car that can comfortably fit four energetic kids, their friends and all their paraphernalia but still leave enough luggage room for jaunts over the border. Prices start from $150 a day, or $2,850 per month for yearly rental.

Mostly Bs

Hyundai Santa Fe – Explorer
You may have a job in the city and do the nine-to-five shuttle, but as soon as you’re out of the office it’s time for an adventure. You need a car that’ll cross deserts and make light work of mud tracks. Prices start from $2,600 a month for yearly rental.

Mostly Cs

Toyota Vios / Toyota Altis – City Slicker
Quick and nimble, you want a car that can slip into the smallest parking space and be away first at the lights. Prices start from $90 a day, with a special promotion on long-term rental of brand new cars, starting from $1,650/$1,850.

Mostly Ds

BMW 5 Series/BMW X3 – Executive
Car choice is something your secretary takes care of. You just want something that gets you from one high-powered meeting to the next in comfort and style. Price on application.

All these cars are available from Evergreen Rent A Car. For more information, visit evergreenrentacar.com or call 6459 0990.

This year we say farewell to one of Singapore’s iconic structures, with the Sentosa Merlion ceasing operations in late October. Here are some facts and figures about the huge sculpture. 25 - It's age; the Merlion was built in 1995, designed and sculpted by Australian artist James Martin. 37 - Metres in Height. The huge structure included two observation decks – one at the mouth and one at the top of the head. 320 - Scales on the Merlion, each shaped like an octagon, or the Taoist bagua symbol. 4 - The number of teeth, thought to represent Singapore’s four ethnic groups – Malay, Chinese, Indian and Eurasia. 6 - Remaining number of Merlions in Singapore (including a pair of 3m Merlion statues on Mount Faber, along with the famous 8.6m original statue at Merlion Park). 90 - Cost, in millions of dollars, of the new “Sentosa Sensoryscape” project that will take over the Merlion’s spot, including a linkway between Resorts World Sentosa and the beaches to the south.

Melinda heads to a wet market! (Full video on IGTV Or YouTube) Did you know: The term “wet markets” came into common usage in the early 1970s when the Singapore government used the term to distinguish these markets from air-conditioned “supermarkets” that had become popular with the opening of Fitzpatrick’s supermarket in Orchard Road in 1958.
Singapore Slings are an iconic part of the Lion City’s history since 1915. But which one is best? Watch (swipe) and find out if the one where they all began is tops. Watch the full video on IGTV or our YouTube! Did you know it was illegal for women to drink alcohol then? The creator Ngiam Tong Boon created the Sling so women could hide the fact that they were drinking in public. #singaporesling #expatliving #reviewcrew #igsg #longbar @raffleshotelsingapore
Incredibly fun day flying kites with the USA Girl Scouts at Marina Barrage. Love that place! - Melinda
