Kenso, u very rajin ah creating that C-segment comparison table in your blog. thumbup.gif
But i'd like you to re-check one thing in that table, the car width.
Peugeot likes to INCLUDE the side mirrors when they quote their car width.
Other manufacturers measures width at the widest point MINUS the side mirrors.

I realize this odd habit by peugeot & citroen when i was surveying for an MPV.
Peugeot quote 5008's width as >2000mm. That's wider than the Starex (1900+mm)!!! shakehead.gif
Impossible right? Peugeot/citroen cheats.

Owh sorry I didn't read your previous post. So are the 308 and 408 really the widest C-segment, exteriorly. From my crude visual inspection, they don't look much wider than the rest. Not that it matters much, just curious.

^^Prince engine is really that unreliable huh? Naughty girl=exciting=unreliable, right? That's too bad since the engine output is really gooding.
So now we have a reasonably priced C-Seg conti in the form of 408, I wonder what CKD Jetta's price going to be like. RM130k a good price?

comparing the 408 and a 308 is like comparing the myvi with altis - two different vehicles sizes and weight. you should be comparing the 408 with the other c segment in its class

So if you extend the myvi, put on a boot and it becomes altis??

Ok, so it's like the Golf and Jetta. So I'll re-read carpathia's myvi-altis analogy as a purposeful exaggeration instead.
