Planning to get FLX for my mother soon.For current users,do you guys have any comment on the cars reliability?
I've test drive the FLX & the cars performance & interior seems reasonable for me.Just have doubt of campro's reliability.

While test driving I asked about the Proton P3-21A.I had the impression that the sales person has seen the car & he seems to be very impressed with it.He told me that the launch date will be in mid March & price range will be from 65K to 75K.

Campro the engine itself should be fine, just not as smooth or refine as those Japanese engines (My personal opinion). The thing everybody worries about is the IAFM component, which has a history of breaking every few years.

FLX comes with the new IAFM+, and since it is still new, there is still no reports of it breaking yet.

I did ask about the IAFM+ & he said so far there's no case with IAFM+ breakdown in SC near my house.
If a Saga sent to the SC it's mostly because of accident.Not much parts failure.

I guess I'll look through few more option before deciding but FLX seems like very good candidate for now.

Thanks man.
I learned a major thing from you already : Saga is a very safe car laugh.gif
My mother will be traveling 80KM per day & part of the road is shitty type.So need a rather safe car.
Initially I thought of taking standard model but standard model don't have airbag at all.So change to executive.

The SC/Proton Edar is about 500m from my house only.I can see rows of accident cars in SC from my house.
It's like car graveyard.

For some ppl, the door is very hard to open...

You changed dashboard before?
*
Nope.. is take it out totally and reassemble.. Cos there was some wind leaking in at high speed from the left.. When u speed above 120kmh its very loud like somebody blowing air like that.. Later found out that the windscreen bottom left the sealant there got a gap didnt stick properly..

When the SC fella fix back the dashboard also he add some double sided tapes here and there to make most of the connecting areas fit properly..

is the car in the photo is a persona ?

Yeah.. Persona.. Im from persona thread..


Btw got a few questions to ask u guys..
Does Saga FL 1.6 have auto lock? Like when u put down the handbrake and press the brakes the door will all auto lock..

For that price, and a for a new car, nothing comes close.

Inokom i10 : Cute, probably save more gas, nicer interior. downside - no airbags, resale value, spare parts, small boot
Persona 1.6 B-Line : Bigger, more room, bigger engine. downside - no airbag/abs/ebd, a lot better stuff missing (power windows, foglights, alloy wheels etc)
Viva : Small, practical, saves gas, resale value, airbag+abs/ebd only on viva elite EZi . downside - pricey, considering the stuff you getting in return
myvi LB - tried and proven technology+platform, 2 aibags. downside - for RM45k, you get extra boot space, ABS/EBD over the myvi. and the interior isn't everyone's cup of tea

Personally I don't know why MyVi's price is so damn freaking high.It does sound like tin milo just like proton cars & performance + interior is just so2.
It's not worth paying nearly RM50K for that.
Even my sister dislike MyVi.

Saga's main advantage is definitely it's price.Just hoping it'll be reliable.
My family has great memories with our previous Proton car,Waja.Even after 11 years it still in excellent condition aside from the damn window.
