I don't drive any car now. But I'm on the upcoming Vios/Belta. Even that I'm still eager to want to play Savvy AMT.

nice angel lights!
DIY or can buy at any acc shops?

woah... seems that u are kinda satisfy with ur savvy.... lol ur cons... not really a big big problem lar.. hahahaha

In terms of driving experience ok ler...for 37k...what else can buy? VIVA? No thanks. Persona is attractive at 45k but i don't think it'll be FC efficient compared to a Savvy.....I'm just paranoid about FC after so many years driving a Kia....LOL.

But the real test will be the quality and whether it'll be mostly problem free. This i think can only be determined after 2 years down the road. We'll see.
(btw, i top up for RM280 for an extra 3 years warranty just in case.)

btw, SA gave me this CoolWorld tint voucher....never heard of it before. Any good ah?

Yeah thats the one Looks good eh Plan to do mine after the warranty expire

Okay...i just found that:

1. Old savvy use 175/50/R15
2. Facelifted & Lite use 165/60/R14
3. Savoc favourite is 185/60/R13

1->2 = speedometer run 0.4% too fast : 60mph @ 59.7mph / 96.6kmh @ 96.1kmh
1->3 = speedometer run 0.7% too fast : 60mph @ 59.6mph / 96.6kmh @ 95.9kmh
2->3 = speedometer run 0.3% too fast : 60mph @ 59.8mph / 96.6kmh @ 96.2kmh

Just drove mine back home just now, pretty nice =D

I thought he say HID as fog lamps...

But with angel eyes. So i point up the pic of angel eyes.
So far no pic for hid foglamp.

I've seen it before with HID foglamp.

I wonder if that's legal, HID foglamp, as HID headlamp so far JPJ kacau.

It does look very cool indeed...
Hope it's legal...

Pics...

PROTON SAVVY hm.. I think ok lah hving waja last time and drove my fren Savvy all is oklah other then each proton car problem .. but I can't stand the SAVVY tail light...

Drives like a big car sure it is. It's solid. I thought hi line variant is shodded with old line rims and tyres size.

One reason I hate bengmawi so much..My car is all stock only still they wouldn't leave me alone - esp those with 17-18'' wheels superbeng lookers.

Cons no I can be rectified easily - even much easier and cheaper if you could identify which wires to tap on and trigger yourself. I had it done at a shop for RM65 with a nicer switch - that's how accessory shop can survive, with almost 500% profit for such a simple job. Brake pedal to lock, shutting down engine to unlock and the extra switch for lock/unlock.




BTW Savvy already has a transparent key ring but there's no light. There's a hole to add a bulb and LED inside there. Very easy to DIY - total cost only RM1.50 with 20 minutes of your time, but no delay or dimming function. Plan to add the functions later on/

I remember Wira's key ring has a delay and dimming function.
Gen2 has no delay or dimming function - just close the door the light at the key ring will off like the Savvy's DIY.
I wonder if Persona has those 2 functions - if got Proton sure did take some effort to improvise on smaller sometimes nifty features which is good.

damn nice. regret buying kenari now..

Wahh...you sure much faster than me in getting the car.

Pls share ur FC here and see how much you can get for ur first full tank.

congrats to new owners.

My 'O' line Savvy is about 52,000 km now (2005 Nov). Journey daily about 100km, cost me around RM7 per day. No problem with the car, normal service no problem to report, just need a little alignment (potholes!).

At the moment is calculating the timing belt change cost at 60K. The PESC quote RM850, but I read in Savoc you can do it less then RM500.

RM850!! So expensive meh? Are they trying to con u? Hypermount, any ideas? I thought there's a price list somewhere in Savoc that shows about RM4xx??

It costs only RM300 plus for complete kit: belt, bearings, oil seal etc, Proton original and Renault sourced from outside cost around that before the price reduction, can get cheaper now especially the Renault brand. Authorised SC will charge RM100 for the labour, since taking out the front right wheel will enable you to access the timing belt easily, labour should be much cheaper a bit outside.

Branded third party from Dayco and Gates with complete kit cost RM380, that will last 100k km compare to Proton original 60k km. For these belts, there's a warranty card to be fill in in case problem arises later.

Juz wondering...does all new Savvy facelift have this:

I've seen many facelifted Savvys but haven't seen it...
Even the Savvy AMT on display at the COE also doesn't have the rear foglamp...
Does any Savvy owner here have it???
