Yesterday when I pick up my car from workshop after the repair and repaint, the workshop owner told me to beware as peugeot will give alot of problem because it just not suitable for our hot country here.

But I really wonder of those perception. In France during summer is hotter than malaysia. And not to mentioned about the weather, the turbo itself is hotter than the weather. So I don't heat is an issue.

This is apek percetion from those days. Can't expect him to keep up with technology. For ppl like him only T & H are real cars. That's way stick a T or H badge on any ramshackle,in Bolehland sure can sell.

Trivia
Pub-quiz question: what's the connection between Peugeot and the Statue of Liberty?

One of the earliest Peugeot models was known as a Lion-Peugeot, which adopted the lion emblem of the city of Belfort, where it was made. Bartholdi, the sculptor responsible for the Statue of Liberty in New York, also takes credit for Belfort's Inn.

It will be carry out stages by stages, not drastically drop 30% if not used car dealer will have to shut down their business.. by the time it drops to 30% I believe your pug 5yrs warranty would have been long overdue and probably time for upgrade too tongue.gif

thumbup.gif Yes, That's the point. So it's pointless to wait after election only buy a new car. Not necessary...

That's the consequence of dropping the car price. However, you lost Rm30k for selling off your lion, but you buy a new BMW at 100k cheaper price, why not? I will be very happy to see that.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind if a BMW 328i just cost 150k. But think about the potential problems of having cheap cars as well...

What we really need is a better public transport system to tackle the existing traffic woes, otherwise having cheaper cars would solve one problem but add on to others.

I don't agree so, ppl would and willing to pay for a better perspective. Yes, indeed more car on the road causing traffic jam. Don't think lower down the car price will significantly increase the number of car on the road, as at current situation, our car price I high, ppl not afford to get BMW, Merc... but ppl buy Proton or Perodua which is more affordable. The different in future is, ppl move forward from Proton Perodua to BMW and Merc.
Just my 2 cents...

Let's take Singapore as example, their public transport is just so convenient, convenient enough that they don't really need to own personal car. But they really prefer public transport than owning a car? I don't think so, Singaporean don't own is bcoz the expensive COE, just look at the price of the COE, climbing and climbing. Enough to prove Singaporean still desperate to buy their own car. If the ability of owning a car is not an issue, they definitely will prefer owning a car than using public transport.

At the same time, there are also many people who have even problems buying P1 and P2 in the first place. If those cars drop into the sub 20k and 30k range, you're going to see a huge jump in car sales. That's going to be unavoidable. Let's not forget there's also motorbikes as well which we did not even factor into the equation.

KD SC told me that the "ku-dok" sounds from my front wheel might be the drive shaft is faulty. The service manage tells me that I might be able to get back my car today and wait for the part to come (under warranty).
