guys, i'm planning to get this as my first car. Not very savvy with cars. From the first page (proton's website), I managed to get a rough idea how much it will cost for maintenance.

However its not the complete cost as tires was not included. Anybody have any idea how much tires will cost and how often do we need to change them?

BLM Saga seems to be king of cucuk nowadays. Everytime see got car cucuk me, its most likely saga.

My way of dealing with being cucuk when my front also got car is by driving even slower. The closer i got cucuk, the slower I drive until my front can masuk a few cars. Then when they have enuf and try to cut me, I accelerate and close the gap. Don't care if its saga or bmw, if my front got car, cucuk me also no use...i also got no confident with their driving skill coz if emergency brake, sure bang... so drive slow until 2-3 cars gap to prepare for brakes..

Tyre not consider maintenance. Normally will last 30K-50K mileage depending on what tyre you buy, the way you drive and the road you normally drive on. Stock Goodyear NCT5 normally quite lasting. It last me 55K last time on mostly highway drive. At most, it should be able to last at least 30K. That should be abt 2 years to 3 years depending on how much you use the car. If your mileage is very low, avg estimated 4 years HAVE to change tyres even if not used coz it start to harden and have hairline cracks on sidewall.

Nowadays, acceptable entry level tyres cost abt RM180 to RM200 per piece for standard 15".

thanks for your input. Anything else that i should take into consideration that will incur cost on the car other than road tax/insurance and fuel?

What would be if u've already calculated the maintenance cost? It's only the service, especially the major ones that u have to be worried about. Otherwise, PE is quite a low maintenance car.
