What do u mean?

Gear shift down when slowing down?

just get my new Almera, here is my comment,

1. Interior build quality is good, apart from the steering wheels which feel like Proton Saga. At least do not have finishing like poor plastic.
2. Drive is surprisingly good and quiet.
3. Doesn't float like the above poster mention when above 80kmh, but still a new car, doesn't dare go more then 120kmh.
4. Rev around 2k-3k give the best feel or power/fuel save.
5. No Auto lock
6. Wing Mirror with LED doesn't fold.
7. Additional 3.5k get u luxury feel like leather seat, step plate with lights etc
8. Rear door open up near 90 degree, spacious enough for elder people to get out/in easily.
9. Hate the audio system cause is ugly.
10. Overall a love hate car depend on individual.

to share experience.

my family has one that has just been collected two weeks ago. yesterday the ABS light went off. sent to SC. first they replace sensor but the light came back so now have to go more in depth. maybe wiring

don't know if this is common but the QC is quite bad
