Hi Guys / Gals,

I'm planning to get a new car

as my budget is limited , so I'm considering Saga SV and Myvi 1.3 SE.

Can anyone here tell me the pros and cons of the new Saga SV?

Thanks in advanced

1.3 Executive around the same price as the Myvi 1.3 SE. If you are considering Myvi 1.3 SE, you should consider FLX 1.3 Exec instead of SV. It is much better equipped than the SV, the differences are quite a lot.

I think the Exec CVT you're referring to is the FLX SE, which is the 1.6l variant.

actually I'm trying to save up as much as possible

so I think SV is quite okay for me .. althou there is no ABS .. unsure.gif

I'm forced to buy a new car under unforeseen circumstances ...

so if can save i try to save ...

I'm referring to the proton website

Proton Saga SV and Standard .. seems there is not much difference?

If I'm trying to get 1.3 Executive.. i think my family will ask me to go for Myvi

tzxsean i think the fact that saga has got a nice ass and maivee aka turtles dont have already beats the point.
leave all the rest away. what vvti engine, better FC and all those nonsense BS that maivee drivers says is better than saga. pure BS.
at Saga price tag (which is cheaper than maivee) together with an ass, I will go for it.
I am FLX SE driver but I am not bias towards them.
I have made deep thoughts of having a boot vs not having one.
Think of where are you going to put ur stuffs after shopping ? Its even worse if you are married with kids.
all the supermarket stuffs and dont forget ur baby stroller. Can you fit them into a maivee ?
*
I'm still single and foreveralone ..let alone having a wife and baby hahaha

the boot is no issue for me ..

the concern is bout the safety, maintenance and the traditional problems of proton


QUOTE(Darrenkls @ Aug 13 2013, 10:48 PM)
you can consider to take 1.3 executive.
i also having the same situation like you previously. being forced to get new car.
at first thinking to get SV, then upgrading to standard, at last take executive.
FYI, i just get my car not more than 2 weeks.
if you want to take SV need to wait for months only can get your car IINM  smile.gif
*
I would choosing Auto for sure
how much down payment you paid and how many years of loan have you obtained?

pls share some insight ...

I'm still favoring SV at the moment .. those accessories are not a must for me
and well ..i can guess to learn to drive without ABS.

anyway im still thinking which to choose .. personally more towards Proton at the moment
cos I'm driving Myvi now .. can buying another Myvi seems boring

Price : 1 x myvi = SV + RM10,000 cash
so, SV owners are happier (less burden)
with the extra cash, we TT every week (all worries gone)
buy durians, rambutans etc  and put in the huge boot. myvi- no boot (put on your lap?)
if wait in car for girlfriend for 1 hr, just on a/c - cool your heat. myvi ?????
car performance
0-40km/h - slower n steady. prevent sudden jerk n bang into other car ass.
60-120km/h - excellent power... some take corners at high speed w/o turning turtle like mv
Fuel Consumption? higher abit - heavier car - got front, got back (boot) safer car.
SV- people bang into my boot ,  Myvi - people bang in ..........             

if you got problem and ???? after owning SV, no problem, join our TT loh. a lot of SIFUs

haha, just my noob opinion, both cars are good. your choice..
*
what is TT?

Im thinking to persuade my dad let me choose Saga ..

cos macam all ppl in my circle choose Myvi over Saga

bcos of the "problems" perceived by the public over the years on Saga's image and issues

for me a SV is sufficient .. my official 1st car does not need to be high end

firstly, u will never know when the boot will come in handy  icon_rolleyes.gif
me myself cant imagine what will happen to me if I bought a car without boot.

safety ?
google and see how many turtles did maivees made. there is a reason they are labelled as turtles.

maintenance and problems ?
which car got no problems ? all mass produced cars has their own problems. this is the reality of mass produced products.
my gaga no issue until now but I do maintain them pretty good.
when I said pretty good means serbis when required.

hmm .. how bout ABS and the anti skid when emergency brake part?

how to improve or avoid troubles later?

need some tips now ..

and any nice color to intro? laugh.gif for saga sv

D/P 10% = RM 3,700

Balance to be loaned = RM 33,188

Assuming interest pa is 3.5%,

([3.5 x 5] 33188) + 33,188

38,995.90 / 60

= 649.93 per month.

QUOTE(ruby1288 @ Aug 13 2013, 11:19 PM)
woot mahalnya.
my SE now only 644 / month on 7 yrs tenure
*
i think that figure is almost my limit per month for 5 years ...

as for now .. need to think how to pay the downpayment

p/s: just now was in phone with my dad .. he mentioned that his car dealer fren mentioned that the engine

of Saga is somehow different bla bla bla ..use duno wad black oil .. bla bla bla .. then will make the gear

n etc not so durable.


can somebody care to explain this to me and the rationale? I not so faham ..

Why interest sohigh?
Go learn cadence braking.

Both of them can use the same engine oil, except gear oil is different because Saga uses CVT.

Ask your dads friend come talk to me so I can slap him.

and im paying myself .. except downpayment need help from dad .. thumbup.gif

woot .. if standard got 3k discount?

then I might as well take standard ?

SV - 36,188

Standard - ( 41,811 - 3,000 ) = 38,811
