Buy a used car

[vr2turbo]

Bro, after u test drove the Vios and City u wanted, u will be amazed how Persona handles.
I am only driving B line which means no ABS and no rear discs. SV has everything including dual airbags. (I got one only for myself.) City first gen not bad though, 7 speed sport.
Still, its an old car. Persona only has power windows problem. THAT is all.

edit: Yes, IAFM can be a problem but if u switch off your air cond before u off ur engine, its no biggie.
Thats what I heard, and mine still in good cond.
Btw, just test drive it and test it in anyway u can imagine, superb.
Cheappppp somemore. I bought 56k, now 46k I really wanna kill myself.

Some just don't want Proton woh!....:hmmmm:

In terms of FC, Since TS focus more on FC, persona is no where near it.

including my wife, no matter how affordable how spacious it's still a no no.

Yup, Perodua ladies still okay, but when comes to Proton is a no no. Just like how I end up getting and joining Speedy Gonzalez gang.

RM5K could get me a Proton Wira, but she doesn't want cuz she says makan minyak (especially if it is A/T)
So, get a deer which is small and she can drive as well so is okay

 

[stupidcar]

Oh well, they missed the fun, not me. :proud:

The pros overshadowed the cons a lot to be honest.

i have to say, City is really a good car and FC is outstanding. My brother-in-law has it, and it was amazing. But in terms of looks, both City and Vios looks like Dugong. sorry i have to say tht, but other than tht, its a good car. Cheap spare part and is easy to get literally every where, locally.

Hehe..dont mind if dugong or not..as long as FC good, the spare part easy to get, it thinks it fair enough. your brother-in-low used what type of city bro? IDSI? and the car manufactured?

Oh really?

 

[Supra_Fanatics]

Oh really?

Seriously, if you drive normal and not pedal to metal all the time, if you compare FC with most standard cars, Vios FC is really really good. Well, to cut it short, toyota 1 of their selling point is good FC other than reliability.

Can't compare with newer technologies cars though, some really have great fc. But to compare with same generation models, Vios FC is really good.

Another one would be feedback from Cvkit's Manual Myvi 1.5L. Another good FC car.

We had a Wira before for 4 years. After the roof rusted no more Proton. But did go back to test the Exora. In the end still don't like....hahaha

[DanzEterna]

U can be typical but in a car forum, come onnnn.
U didn't even think about it. It is overpriced but u get chopped from buying dugongs.
I can never understand Malaysian mentality sometimes.
Nvm, as long as u like it.

So far for Proton, Satria Neo seems to have least negative feedbacks. Love that car.

I haven't heard problems from Preve or Suprima as well.
Theres a problem with Preve but I forgot about it.
Must be a small problem.

Thing is, VW is very bad as well but I see a lot of VW on the road.
See, I don't understand Malaysian's mentality.

I love Suprima, I test drove last 2 months. Gosh, the turbo engine is very responsive not much of Turbo lag. but of course, with Lotus handling, i would say is handling-gasm hahaha

Lotus Handling is really something. Not sure why UK Top Gear say its rubbish. Of course cant compare supercars, or sportscars or Lotus.
I tested the Preve, reaaaaaly good city driving. After 4000rpm really out of oomph with a small snail.

Maybe not many Preve or Suprima around.
VW many on the road, but now only the problem surface mah!

Like my ex colleague saw many Citroen ZX 1.9 on the road. Thinking since many, value should hold so he bought the new 2.0 model. Do you see many on the road now? He bought RM80k those days, sold at RM5k....

I read this one comment by Passat 2013 owner in Paultan comment box. He said, he own's Passat more than 8 months, and has been facing DSG break down more than 5 times. He said, his car has been in the workshop like 5 months already. He even said, he want to sell it, but the agent would only take for 80K. Brand new is like 160K+ rightttt, wasted and selling at lost. Pity tht guy.

the satria neo is also a good car from proton. y not consider it?

oh really..not noticed about this..

 

[ixeo]

Why keep promoting Proton Savvy LOL!

Cause its a good car for the price. Easy maintenance, best handling in its class, best fuel economy for 1.2L engine manual.

Only thing is, my shit looks better than the car.

I think, this is suitable time to get a car bro. ibefore have any commitment like marriage, have child, etc now..hehehe.. Want to buy cash, but don't have enough money..hehe

RM7k cash don't have? Better don't buy a used car that will get you in debt boss... cause later no money to fix.
