In the second round of bidding for October, Certificate of Entitlement (COE) prices rose across all categories.
Car buyers could have been more eager to make their purchases this week due the extensive 10.10 deals offered by the various dealers earlier this month, as well as the anticipated decrease in COE supply for the upcoming quarter announced by the LTA last week.
