ask the sales person who you bought the car from come pick your car and sent it back to you after finish, next time when u upgrade to a bigger car buy the mondeo,

how about that, service what. or else you pay me RM 300 a day i take a day off, come pick ur car sent u to where ever u wanna go, drop you then i bring the car to service center, after service i come return it back to you,

good idea?

went to test drive yesterday.
very impressed with the technology in the car.

only two things make me wanna wait.
1. no ecoboost engine
2. screen on center console tiny!
*

This thing is better than the autopark feature or sunroof or auto stop combined. Ford Malaysia take note.

I more concern of other drivers/car who just open their door without thinking others in tight space

varies monthly?
you're business owner, salesman or mlm man?

the shop i went to at kepong offered me 15k discount.
i see in mudah 2010 models going for 90k.
think think 120 minus 15k = 105k for new car not bad what  brows.gif
though my gf thinks the new focus is uber tech and smart looking.
tdci is a roaring beast......still doing my research  brows.gif
*
new focus really nice but 200Nm is nothing compare to 320Nm (TDCI)

thats why i was thinking.
coz 200nm from my current 168nm @ 1200rpm isn't quite an upgrade.
with some correct mod /tunning ...u might get 15% more

why you need such high torque???

high torque makes u sink into your seat. biggrin.gif

for me , higher number of T , provided me more confident to drive esp during overtaking n uphills

actually what is the difference between output and torque?

i compare new focus and tdci:
new focus has higher output
tdci has higher torque

y does tdci 0-100 needs 9.9sec while new focus does better? does it mean new focus more powerful? i reli got confuse here.. any pros can explain to me?
*
tdci is fuel saver. can not win any drag race.if u travel a lot then tdci suit u beside of hybrids

fuel saver? really? even on disel? i still confuse.. those torque can smoke most of car in the range? y 0-100 still slower?

for TDCI average fuel consumption is 5.5-6.5l/km no matter how hard to trash the paddle. U can drive at 170 km/h for hour but still got many fuel left in tank and less stress to ur engine

diesel engine is different from petrol engine due to low rev characteristic . Bare in mind that the diesel engine itself more heavy compare to modern petrol engine that bring some significant performance on 0-100

wait for others for better explaination

max torq/hp generate on the rpm stated , for new focus , u hav to tekan to that rpm to feel the max power


for city driving/normal malaysia road. tdci much more better performance coz the no need to tekan so much to feel the power

how many times u want to rev ur engine closed to red line?.I think normal driver only cruising up to 3/4rpm for daily routine drive.

so here comes the turbocharged mechanism to provide better power at low speed for petrol engine like Proton did

Unfortunetly , my car still not ready, still waiting for wire hardness.WTF vmad.gif wasting my time .


btw , I had a chance to go inside the workshop and saw one new focus stranded ,with front seat and the dashboard been taken off. Havent a chance to ask why

my car problem free xcept the lousy SC/person that handle my accident case.

wire hardness for headlight was burned due to accident but SC just cut and joint those wire due to wrong part. rclxub.gif

luckly adjuster found n need to order the whole wiring that cost amost 5K.so re submit the claim n took long time to receive.

last time Mazda Malaysia only allow to test drive the MPS for those who pay the booking fees. So many people complaint and then they back to normal routine

hi im thinking of getting fiesta either sedan or the hatchback but im worrying about the after sales service from SDAC. Anyone got any bad experience with it? Also which version of the fiesta has the better AS support? Thanks!
*
for normal interval servicing , I think u should not worry much about the SC , they are doing a great job (for me so far ).

Just wonder how the want to cope with the increasing numbers of customer

maybe SDAC already plans something coz last April ford will launch 6 new model (Focus/ST already launched , so maybe Kuga etc.)
