Contemplating to buy Peugeot 408 Turbo. At the moment still considering the Hire Purchase interest rates. Can all owners or future potential owners share share the interest rates approve, bank and if ok % of deposit (10,20,30)?

The last round I got from Affin Bank (bef announcement of Bajet 2013), was 2.35%. Anyone got lower?

Thanks jfcheong and skyjack. Wow summons! The road will be more dangerous, now. It is this pug408 vs ford focus. Too bad Ford Focus didn't come with ecoboost, else my choice will be it. Yeh test drove pug at Bangsar branch and went on mahameru on a public holiday (long weekend). SA allowed me to flat it, it was exhilirating. The power kept on coming at the will.of.my foot and cabin space is impressively the signature of a peugeot + 6 airbags, for that price..unbelievable. the drawback.is service maintenance which I read will be 3.6 to 4k per year whereas Ford offers Parts &Labor free maint.

Current Pug specifically 408, how's ur maint total so far?

Yes, in terms of spaciousness and big torque of course Pug408 wins.
It was just a guess for me. I used to own a Pug 405 SR, therefore I roughly can feel the pinch on maint. However that time, petrol price was around 1.28 I think.

Is the blog owner a forumer here?
Although is a 308 maintenance account up to 50,000KM OTR, this can serve a general guide until some good soul can share theirs actual 408 acc if any.

He also accounted HP installment as expenses which likely may not apply to others.

Argh....got a call this morning from SA, another 5K off the price for 2012 model. Wow desperate to meet quota or plenty of stock ups? Pulling hair now.

I'm not sure about your claims here. I thought car dealers usually look at the manufacturing year of the car not the year car registered. Correct me if wrong.

For eg.
If car is made 2012 but registered with RTD Nov/Dec 2012, sell in 2016 considered 5 y.o car.
If car is made 2012 but registered with RTD Jan 2013, sell in 2016, dealers still considered 5 y.o car, isn't it?

Same goes for CBU units, the AP will detail out the manufacturing date. I think Peugeot 408T is CKD right?

Added on November 23, 2012, 5:11 pmAgree with Mr.Cheong,

I've test driven the Hyundai Elantra 1.6 at Jalan 222, feels sluggish. IMPO. After that I went to Bangsar to try out the 408T 1.6, the turbo makes it really different and the interior space, it's like going into Harry Potter's friend Weasley's tent.

Just like that? Alamak....any discount with catch phrases as tq token can encourage more sales, no? LoL like macam i bought the car oredi. Anyway i did use sierra glow for my fiesta. So far so ok la.

How many AES speeding ticket you intend pickup in one journey?

true true....in that case you'll need something very reliable and can go very fast. Cost no issue, yes?

Got call this morning from SA @Bangsar branch. Thanks 4
This post otherwise won't realise the initial pricedifference. Damn they bump up the price
then give over trade. In the end pay more rm3k. Chehhh....
Smart la marketing ppl of naza.

I really cannot tell the difference with euro kit or without.
jialat if car is silver, the black kit?

Finally decided and took the plunge. Booked a unit, silver color. Going settle the HP. Opting for the over trade instead of the other options. Guys, can provide link to post regarding maintenance cost up to 60000km.

Thank you guys and gals. Excited since this will be my reborn to drive peugeot cars
again, used to own a 405sr but it was a used vehicle. can y'all recall your first day getting ur car? was there urge to drive it as much can? Genting?

Wah took leave summore, not MC ah? Did u flat/fly it on first day? Top speed can reach?

I have no problem parting with my current 2009 Persona but it was sad day when I had to part with my old Peugeot 405SR. I had it for 7 years since 2002. The carburator was failing and very difficult to find spare parts. Searched in SG and Thailand also yield no results. Got someone offer me RM2.3K for that carburator, so I decided to let it go.

By the way have you read this? http://paultan.org/2013/01/17/nasim-launch...subang-skypark/

I wished it was free complimentary 24 hours shaded car park facility. cheh.

Here is a little tip, don't put full tank. Just half will do in city drive. If long distance then full tank 9 9. I don't think it'll be a significant saving but it should be a slight difference.

Guys any of you install in-car camera for your pug? If yes did u install a permanent wiring from fuse box or use cigarette lighter socket? Any tips on this?

another idea to throw in the hat, I'll going to ask for more insurance premium discount for this extra security feature. Wonder will insurer bite?
