I've driven a second hand proton wira for 15 years now and it's really reliable. The only real problem I've had with it was the power window of course. I cant really complain about it since it's a 17 year old car and I dont really have the money to buy anything else so this proton car is good to me.

I've mentioned this to other people and they look at me in disgust, citing their own bad experience with using a Proton. I take it that a person's preference of proton lies in the extremes; either you love it or you dont, there's no middle ground.
