He is being paid for such review. Why not get that UK jerk Jeremy Clakson's review?
Again, I said Cerato is smaller than Forte that's my real world testing, I don't give a sheet on those numbers. Which another member also agreed with me on this.

Obviously your feel on your real world testing only serve u and you alone thus pls be reminded to include 'that's just me' at the end of your review/comment in the near future as clearly to the rest of us, your review doesn't reflect to the actual.

Also there is no need to show your 'bruised ego' further by commenting and dragging all sort of unrelated topic into the argument without any supporting detail.

That my friend will show how a fool turn himself into a bigger fool.

I think uve got the whole safety thing wrong. Safety is NOT insurance and no where even similar to insurance. Insurance deals with your ability to pay for medical costs or your dependants welfare. Safety is LIFE itself. Accidents are not your everyday matter but all it takes is ONE accident and someone's life is out the door. Are you willing to take a gamble on safety assuming that you wont get into an accident?

In all my years of driving, ive never experienced a high speed tyre blowout but early last year i did and if it wasnt for the stability control function on my car, i would have ended up smashing into the trailer i was overtaking on the highway when it happened or slamming into the guardrail. Yes i never had any use for stability control for 99% of my driving time all these years but that one time was all i needed and if it wasnt for it, i may not be here writing this now.

So in short, let's not take away any importance from safety. Car owners should never compromise on safety and should never choose resale value over it. ABS, EBD, BA, Stability Control, Traction Control and at least 4 airbags should be compulsory in any car. As long as consumers in Malaysia continue to purchase cars with substandard safety features, car manufacturers will continue to sell them. UMW Toyota not making VSC a standard feature in all Altis models is a joke and they should be boycotted for that. Would Toyota dare sell a car without VSC in America or Australia? So why are Malaysians accepting non VSC equipped cars here?

Even Paultan is a strong advocate for safety especially Stability Control:

Well said mate.

Some people are just still living in a thick shell of their own, choosing to bet on their lives over money and worst the so called RV over safety features. No HUMAN can predict or forecast when a life threatening/taking accident may happen and u ain't got no spare for life.

It is about time for a wake up call to those who are still living in the thick shell of theirs to break apart and look into the importance of life and how deep the impact of safety features in our daily ridden car to our precious life if an accident occur.

It will be the least that we can do and even offer comfort instead of gloating and mourning what we could have done, who to blame when an accident happened.
