today I was at a local 5-star hotel waiting to pick my US colleague up... when the hotel porter walked around my car... I thought he wanted to shoo me off for waiting in no-waiting zone - mana tau he never saw Hybrid before.

so far this is the 2nd time i got "curious admiring stares" from passers by biggrin.gif

Need to add relay?

relay comes w/the Hella box set (but it was unused - just use back our OEM relay... apparently it's strong enough).

was just calculating my FC... this is the 2nd month/2500KMs having this car...

Date L KMs Mileage KM/L
27-Apr 32.14 500 15.56
6-May 30.29 471.9 15.58
22-May 31.99 492.1 15.38
5-Jun 31.1 477.3 15.35

ROLLING AVERAGE: 15.5KM/L (@2500km mileage, 1st service done)

So I'm averaging 15.5 KM/L... for 100% PG city driving. Eco mode on 80% of the time. Hmmm. not as good as I'd like. Hope it gets better after 2nd service...

just added windscreen coverage... for my IN2. RM 4500... works out to RM675/year. Quite exp for windscreen - but apparently it covers all windows (front/back/sides), so that's good.

the shitty part is that i decided to add this coverage in in my 2nd month, so i have to drive to MSIG branch, let them inspect the car and settle the payment there. quite inconvenient.

so moral of the story: buy windscreen coverage upfront, before u get the car!

Hey need a little help here. My Honda Insight 2010/2011 is currently only hitting about 450km on a 30 litre tank. From other threads and forums, I have seen people claiming to hit almost 600-700km on the same tank. Any thoughts? Is there an issue with my car that I need to go back to Honda to fix? Thanks for the help!

that all depends on yr driving style... what kind of traffic you get, and how many passengers you are taking. share w/us more info - are you stuck city driving? h/way driving? carrying >1 person? A/C on 100% high, full blast? Eco button on/off?
