Hi. I am buying a Proton Persona SE' 2008 from a used car dealer. Can anyone please tell me what things to check when buying a second hand proton car?? This is my first time buying a Proton. So I really don't know what to look for. I have already paid the booking and I'm waiting for the car to go for inspection in puspakom. The dealer insisted once the inspection is done, I pay him full.

Can anyone please accompany me to check the car, before I officially get it??

I'm attaching the picture of the engine here. Please lemme know if anything looks fishy..

This morning I can't lock / alarm my car. Not sure why. Need to pressed panic button to lock the car then repressed it again to stop the alarm sound but for unlocking is just normal. 1st time happen. 

can i chamge from D to N gear while the car still moving?becoz to stop at traficc light...

I'm supposed to switch tyres in these coming weeks. Becoming deeply concern with the reported unbearable noise of C-Drive 2 when worn. Either that or go for XM2 instead, much quieter or not?

let's talk about a higher segment.
considering the Altis, Elantra, Lancer, Cerato, Civic, Focus Sedan.
All have their own good and bad. thinking which to choose. basically all are better since it is an upgrade after persona lol.

Threebond your car.

http://fluence.com.my/#5influence damn good deal especially if you book before 30th June 2014

115k and full specs, 6 air bags and ESC/ESP, leather seats, c segment border lining d considering the damn wide wheel base (wider than an inspira/lancer, as if the inspira isn't fat enough already)

=edit=
hmm if you follow to wiki's d segment requirement, then not really la, still well within c segment

How much is this? Since you're a staff, got discount mou?        

I wan. Where to COD? Which station you own?

what the different between Proton Saga FLX 1.6 Executive with Persona 1.6?

all aspect?

why they dont apply this cvt on persona sv?

proton should pay me for proving persona stock absorber tht could last for 145k km (or 4 years) limit. 
so first time changing abs since first bought da car.. 
i saw the top mounting looked quite bad..so i told the mechanic to change them.
1 side was really molested n the other side just nomore dampened:

chose proride std abs for first trial..use back stock spring
[attachmentid=4067176]
already pumped them up n tested for 80km on both highway n crappy kampung road with full of lorries.

heres my review on proride std abs compare to wat i remmber when i drove my pe for the first 10 000km :

-rear is lower by 0.5 - 1 finger
-front is da same height as compare to newly bought my car.
-they said its harder 10-20% compare to stock.. i give it 100% true.
-the feel is slightly better than stock in terms of stability of the car. i think coz of 10-20% harder.
-comfort sightly less than stock due to the same cause (as mentioned above)
-cornering no comment.. same i gess.

this is my first abs change so can only compare with stock.. but for now, i think these abs are just worth the price.
i burnt RM545 total... rm350 abs + rm120 1 set top mounting (normal brand) + rm60 labour charge + rm15 alignment.

ill jst use n see how long they can last.. seller, who worked at sapura, told me to use for 60k km max.
