Hi Preve owners, I am also considering joining the club. I am also looking to upgrade mty ride to the Preve 1.6 Exec CVT (Non-CFE). Currently my ride is the Saga FL Manual Executive. My concerns are as follows:
1. CVT noise - how bad is this or its bearable?
2. Engine Noise - compare with my Saga, I guess I can accept this..
3. Power and pick-up - consulted with SA, recommended me to go for CFE but I do not have the budget. Is the pick-up really bad? I did not want to go for test
drive as the one they have is a CFE and is not the model I am looking at.
4. FC - they say the normal CVT model drinks quite a fair bit but if go outstation is good - similar to my Saga FL?
Do please give comment/your thoughts on the above. I am very keen to upgrade to the Preve. Thanks
1. For me its bearable, as you dont hear it all the time, and you can minimize the sound using radio 1. CVT noise - how bad is this or its bearable?

2. Okay for me
3. Compare to your Saga, of course Saga is better, since Preve is heavier car. But the pick-up is not that bad, as long as you know when to step on the pedal. Its also will get better after you service the car two, three times.
4. Highway 7.5l/100km, City 10l/100km. Mixed abt 8.++l/100km.
