Proton Owners Pride

[Khafiez84]

Hello every1..just 2 know about what are proton owners and non proton owners out there think about our national car maker PROTON either proud, so-so or dissapointed about Proton cars quality coz as we know Proton car is keen 2 have major issue in every model they launched accept Exora Bold coz as far i know still got no complain about de car especially de engine Campro CFE..

4 me i'm one of de proud owner of Proton coz its hve serve me n my family 4 a long time (1 Proton Saga n 2 Wira's)...yeah there is a bit problem here n there but overall i'm satisfied..
Its served its purposed as a daily commuter splendidly n i'm so happy bout it..

Most of ZTH forumer already know that Proton has won SWRC category in Rally Sweeden and almost did it in Rally Monte-Carlo (car burning up due oil leaks) with the satria Neo s200 although its used Renault (Waja 1.8) engine dat been stroked 2 2000cc..but hell..it's still a Proton rite.. links World Rally Championship can't wait de result for Vodafone Rally de Portugal (29 March-01 April 2012).Hope we can win it..hehheh

And the upcoming and most anticipating model Proton P3-21A(sedan) and P3-22A(hatchback) makes me even prouder 2 own a Proton car coz proton really did evolve from what is used 2 be..car assembler 2 a fully car maker with their own technology..technology expertise and de list go on...lets hopes proton can really make a car dat wil sell globally n make us MALAYSIAN proud of our own product n make Proton appreciated and recognized as a top notch car maker even 2 de foreigner..

Maybe this is a most boring topic so far for de respectable ZTH forumer..but it's just my humble opinion and any response is appreciated..:wavey::wavey:

p/s: sorry if my ENGLISH broken here and there...hehehe

so far the best car from proton i could say is the wira.
the new p3 21a looks like an upgraded persona, nothing to shout about.

i love my iswara n neo...

I like my Wira only because it's super easy to DIY fix everything (almost) myself and parts are cheaper than any car out there.

Even the engine mounts and whatever are cheaper compared to Kelisas or Myvi. (ori vs ori)

 

[Khafiez84]

yup..de majority of proton owners will be saying dat Wira is de best overall car in current proton lineup coz its has vastly variety of parts for a cheaper price compared 2 other brand..like bro Iszo said..its easy 2 DIYing so in indirectly its giving us a knowledge especially 2 a nubie in automotive world like me..

BTW bro khencana what's u'r problem with u'r Gen2?

wira, iswara, saga and satria....always the best and most economical...

i had my Wira for 8 years and it served me very well... then came a day i finally decided to sell it as everything was falling apart when it started and move...

Then i upgraded to a Japanese Build... driving it for 2 years, never regretted, and will never go back to Proton... enough said.

 

[EvolutionZ]

proton after gen2 less problem as mentioned..they even give warranty for power window..anyway i totally agreed the damages they had done..but somehow i have to share that lately the saga and persona did improve a lot. my persona served me well since 2009....done mileage 98000km and still going strong...except engine bit noisy ...

 

[DanzEterna]

aiya...proton should rebadge the VW passat & polo :motz::motz:

 

[mosesmk]

guys, i heard the campro engine gave more headache to owner?true?

 

[shah5755]

i drive saga lmst aka kereta tank so far i'm so grateful coz i does not giv me so much probs...until now the only probs tat i had is the power window switch keep on broken...engine so far so gud, and economy for daily drive....
sumtimes buying a car depends on luck also
