Enter Singaporeans Heeraj Sharma, 36 and Regis Tia, 28, who just launched their 24,000 sq ft warehouse facility in Skudai – about 15 minutes from Johor Bahru city centre – that offers storage for luxury and sports vehicles.
The duo, who also own and operate Trilogy Auto Detailing, which offers car detailing services in Singapore, said that 10 Singaporean drivers have signed up for storage, with “hundreds more” enquiring online.

The Carlogy facility, which also has an event space for motoring meet-ups, charges RM1,000 per month for an air-conditioned lot with space for up to 38 vehicles, and RM700 monthly for its 25 non-air-conditioned lots. The fee includes 24-hour security, weekly engine warm-ups and monthly car washes.
“We want to make it (the experience) as seamless as possible, so we have got security here... we have CCTV cameras and guards, and we also have a 24-hour concierge service for you to check on your car any time,” said Mr Heeraj, whose company also helps Singaporeans source and purchase cars in Malaysia through local dealers.
