QUOTE(wankel @ Mar 18 2015, 07:51 AM) I wouldn't worry in the slightest, China can make any quality from the top shelf to junk, depending on how much the trader wants to pay. Yup I agree. China can make the best fakes in the world too..China has a space program that actively sends humans into the void too, not many countries do that. I also know... china can make a screwdriver costing 5 cents to 50 dollars.... And I would never believe Proton will pay top dollar for its parts.. http://listverse.com/2015/03/15/10-bizarre...appen-in-china/ This post has been edited by drfeelgood: Mar 18 2015, 08:39 AM |

QUOTE(davidke20 @ Mar 13 2015, 07:04 PM) - Very colorful England the bugger speaken It is not about being proton fanboi or what... but do you what other makes are charging?- Buying a Plotong, indeed is all about fixing/repairing. Ever heard of R3? ![]() Race . Rosak . Repair - Being a Shawie owner, did not lurk around LYN Shawie tered is already losing out. Worst is, he/she owns an AMT - Plotong themselves screwed up 7/10 Shawie's AMT transmission by simply putting normal automatik oil in to it. They think changing the car badge can make the transmission compatible with Petronas OEM Plotong transmission fluid, which makes a frenchy gebox to comply with Marehsia weather. - Shawie stopped production in 2010. Upon that time, KL plate was running on WTX9999. Obviously, some1 got a big diskaun in 2012 to obtained his/her "showroom/testdrove" unit which probably kena trashed by your's truly during test drive session before I purchased mine - Having a problem with SC is "after sales service" issue. The proper channel to get things done is, put it up with tribunal pengguna, not a fucking feisbuk. If TP didn't solve your problem, put the TP case on newspaper. I think Plotong immediately absorb his/her Shawie & had it replaced with hIriz :lol Call me a Plotong fanboi! If owning a Plotong is stupid, I think ayam stupid powered by 10 liao. Other than Plotong dealers/usedcar dealers ayam 1 of the CONSUMER that owned any 1 time the most Plotong in possession person, yet I only managed to send in 1 time to CoSE for regular service, never bother to go back again. Making poor quality cars = way of survival for Plotong Being stupid = too much feisbuking, think complain over feisbuk will get Plotong to respond? Being stupid, bought a poor quality cheap & discounted car, still bark around with poor Engrish at the wrong channel to the wrong person = CRIME the cheapest around same class car. (Cannot consider Alto because alto is stupiak viva competitor) mitsubishi attrage Rm63k and you get 1.2 engine with 3 freaking cyclinders.... Almera Rm67 k cheapest no specs no accessory manual. vios godcar up to rm90k for trd rubbish specs and rubbish wings.... so how? Unless you are super richfag... can lah buy audi, bmw, range rover, maseratti etc... |

QUOTE(davidke20 @ Mar 23 2015, 08:08 AM) Its been awhile since I made a lengthy post. So here we go. After 3 years of ownership of a newer model of GaGa BLM B-Line, thins I like & do not like about the car. I like to join in your rant...mine was bought brand new FLX manual Exec 11-11-11 so mine is 3 years 4 months now LIKED 1) Boot space is amazingly huge consider a small B segmant sedan that based on a hatchback Shawie chassis. dun forget can carry 57 durians 2) 94hp on paper is amazingly good for a 1.3 engine. Powerful & sweatless sprint it performed. never had a dyno but able to play on the highway with a Slyphy up to 185km/h is pretty impressive to me 3) Handling is awesome, consider this is a torsion beam setup. How often do u drive a lorry with good handling?! after pasang Ur FSB, 3max Rboottranglebarthingy and 3max ARB it is very impressive 4) On strick highway cruising below between 80-90kph, fuel consumption is marvelously low, can easily yield about 18km/litre and above. after pasanging Honda City 15" rims with Yoko CDrive 2 tyres, I can get 17km/l on highway if i cruise max 110km/h 5) Rear headroom & legroom is sufficient even for a 6footer to occupy. i can comfortably sit behind. Nuff said DISLIKED 1) The boot space is huge enough, but hardly able to fully occupy. The hinges design is outragesly bad, where the boot arm required enormous space to contract. I can fit 1 full size traveling luggage, 1 personal luggage, 1 small luggage, 1 baby stroller, 2 laptops & thatut it. The sides, I can only fit my bowling shoes because it required space to retract the boot arm! Its impossible to fit 3 full size Travelling luggage! I believe that's close to 20% of the boot space is unusable, unless u bore a hole on top of the boot, had it shut & start filling water from the hole, and yes the entire boot can be fully occupy. 2) Despite its rated 94hp, my dyno result shows 78whp. Considering transmission/road resistance & effective weight, 78whp is way better then most 1.3 category engines. However, the torque distribution is horribly wrong at 11kg/mm. Having the IAFM assistant on low end doesn't help much. The car literally can feel the transition when switching over from IAFM to normally aspiration at 4krpm. I wonder why can't they(Plotong) continue to use VIM+CPS on the 1.3 engine?! 3) The good handling was inheritted from Shawie, but somehow Plotong conveniently forgot about excess weight of a sedan. Tail sagging issue persist even on an FLX. The car is so safe to drive, to an extend that it understeer so badly where the car will literally drift outward on any bend. Having said that Plotong finally realized the butt sag issue, a higher bounce rate spring being introduced into the FLX, but the bloody damper remain the same! Hard press + soft push retraction, the result is - UP. We can fly like a dugong! 4) 80% of our road usage is on city/town driving. Fuel consumption yield below 10km/litre. I donanna live in this world anymore! Everytime when I think the engine have enough juice to move, I had to brake for the traffic! 5) Let's talk about resell value. I got my car by struck a good deal 3 years back exactly today. The time the previous owner having financial difficulties, I owned the car by paying 28k, about 25% discount from a new car. Today, the very same 5 year old BLM model is selling at 16k. When I open my eyes & tell a white lie to all Plotong owner how bad a VIOS resell value can be, seriously if u r paying 80k to own the car, after 5 years u sell it at 40k, that wasn't so bad! 40k downpayment, u can easily upgrade to another category. On the other hand, by paying 38k to own a car, after 5 years to sell it at 16k, now that's the worst thing 1 can ever anticipate. That 16k will not get u another better option if u decided to buy a new car! Be stuck with Plotong for the rest of your life! My number 1 problem is the crap rubbish spare parts proton uses... made in freaking con man land china? My number 2 problem is my clutch... breaking down only after 31k kms and 3years usage is nonsense! My number 3 problem is the freaking price they charge for the rubbish spares made in con man land china? Rm750 + for that crap which lasted exactly more than 3 years? Timed bomb design? Wtf! I feel so cheated! I hate proton! I hate vios more! I hate myvi the most! Damn it... i think i got to save money to buy Almera already! I will never in my life buy proton, vios or myvi.... Enough of rant. Knowing capacilities is 1 thing. If I can afford, could have bought a P42 back then. Practical is another thing. The car has little problem other then the normal "IAFM problem", which virtually don't exist unless 1 is particular about engine noise. I've clocked almost 600km/tank several times when doing full hiway tour. Rides & handling is exceptionally good for its category(until I own a Shawie). Off late the poor car kept on getting crashed from behind. A 3 year ownership, it has suffered bumper change twice. When I newly got the car, parked at Puchong IOI business centre car park, someone banged on my bumper, leave a huge ugly scratch, I use a huge plaster to cover it. A year later, some old car crashed into my bumper again when wife was driving at LDP. Left me no choice but to get the bumper changed. Few months later, at a stop-look-go traffic, the car behind thought my wife is gonna move, conveniently crashed into my new bumper again. This time, I'm happy enough to get my bumper from SiuYi as I've been dreaming to own the SPIN180 bumper for long. Few weeks later, a MyVi cutting queue & scrape its body with my rear bumper. And yesterday, another Hyundai crashed into the same spot - A G A I N. Don't think I'm going to change/repaint it anyways. Its either people choose to bully my wife, or my BLM backside is too attractive for bummers. Believe it or not, if I ever gonna change my rear bumper again, its gonna be no color! Remain black & ugly!!! Love my BLM |
