I Renewed the COE for My Jazz GD1 for 5 Years

Jack's Jazz has had its COE renewed for 5 years. While I contemplated scraping the car, the joy of driving the Jazz proved too much of a pleasure that drove me to renew the COE--which by the way, can be done online--and I did just that. As we also know...
