rcz-r, base on research that only one unit in malaysia (private import) ....
so 200 thp is best options, for me i just need car part number, the rest can search around n import (even ship from premium site, it still cheaper than local reseller).

I guess you should go for the 200hp. There are a few in Malaysia. Pugs have poor resale value, you might be able to get a good deal.

As an individual is it easy to get permit to import for private use? I ask this cos I am very interested in Citroen DS5 200hp version. Only 156/163hp versions were brought to Malaysia.

base on current insurance value RCZ at rm 50k but seller still asking RM70k (or high 60k), it seem like a bit high for now ....

Ins values are always lower than market value. I would take it around 60K+ as its a really nice car to drive & value has dropped so much.

My aircond vent now blasting out these black colour debris. Some are very tiny.

I am thinking to use vacuum to suck it out. Should I get it fix? Any owner encountered before?

Bro, what did you eventually do? Facing the same issue.

To the sifus here, is this covered under warranty? Else I’ll just go to Bros auto or something.

Or is that cooler master in PJ better?

Thats the best way to get a good one!

Before 408thp was introduced,I almost got the 407. Saw and tested about 7 407s. Finally the week I decided on one, 408thp was introduced. Upon test drive, Prince engine was so very addictive! Immediately signed up for 408thp!

Thats what is said. Actually Prince is grossly misunderstood. Early Prince had a few issues. Most ppl are blindly using those issues as a standard to judge even the present version .

A lot changes were made on EP6CDTM. This version was introed on 408thp. The engine was very reliable that PSA made this a standard for all its 1.6thp sedan/SUV/MPVs. Europe has more engine options.
