Hi, the mileage 5K is a lie... the odometer mileage 100% altered.

most likely its a used company car by proton cose.

you must bring the car registration plate number to proton service center and check.

Don't buy unless you have lots of money to pay for fuel and servicing.  Heavy jam means you'll probably only get over 300km or even less with 40L+ of fuel.

Persona has a good safety rating as well.

unless the seller is the proton SC, then you are safe Provided it have service record book. not those used car dealer claimed showroom car without service book.

Die Die must bring the plate number to SC check service record.

oh this one.. according to the last conversation i have with the used car dealer who trick me.

that used car company is located in perak one.. no office in KL, the one in KL is used when there is customer want to view the car in KL. i think they will bring it down.

and Its not having service record book, as its proton tender car.. owned by proton edar.

but.. they know each other.. my used car seller and that suprima used car seller.

so, when you go there to take a look on car and said will go back and rethink..just take note the car plate for check at proton sc.

hmmm. about the tender car also.. when i am in cose last time.. got talk with the SA on the tender car things..

mine one so far no major problem from car itself.. the major problem i have with the car is man made one, the stupid car used dealer broke the alternator fuse 100A {i think its from jump start..}, and bypass it using copper wire.. this has cause intermittent electrical issue {car electrical switch on/off unexpexted while driving and gear will enter into limb mode till restart.

after replaced a 100A fuse and new alternator issue problem solved. just that i know the alternator is working fine one, and have replaced new IC and carbon brush for it {for spare or sale as used}.
SA told me that many of the budak proton bought the tender car.. and told me also some are having problems one means used lemon unit.. while those luckly one get those without problem one...

beware.. proton tender car does not carry any warranty.

for all recall and service fix parts. cose will replace foc with labor..  small sc will replace parts + labor with charges one..

so.. need to really sure on the car condition before buy it.. some althought mileage altered.. but performance still tiptop like mine case la..

oh yeah.. if you check carefully on those rubber parts.. either on the bottom of windshield ..or the running channel on windows.. then you probbly can guess the car mileage.

Just be careful lah,.. btw... preve.. suprima.. all are very nice one.. i have no regret getting the preve.

just buy a new one..58k ish for 2017 model

Thanks guys on the info on the CVT damper. hopefully i get the call, as i last check mine at the center and it is not mentioned to have been part of the recall.

Simonde, when i was searching for mine i did tons of research. If the ad is true, you can try to ask them if you can take it to a sc to verify the history. I do not trust used car dealers. and if it is genuine 1k millage i would still suggest you have some money set a side to have the fluids changed soon as  you get it. this will include the CVT oil. although it is only 1k millage sometimes these used car will "service" it for you and who knows what goes in. Also check the tires, they are notorious for cracking. check the inner sidewall. Next thing is to look at the fusebox, it should have the updated one and not the made in china ones which the earlier models had. also have a look at the cooler hoses, i cant imagine them being an issue at 1k km but worth a look. Once you managed to convince the dealer to have it taken to the SC get them to run a diagnostic to ensure no errors in the memory.

Lastly do note that the car is not exactly economical to maintain. Parts are not cheap (original), and the you need to alter your driving habits to ensure you ease in the throttle on take off to avoid prematurely wearing out the gearbox. Apart from that is always invest in good quality oil, as like all turbo cars the engine oil is shared with the turbo unit. cheapo oils could lead to sludge and eventually destruction to the turbo unit due to a clogged oil feed/return or worst prematurely bursting the oil cooler hoses, which would lead to a potential rebuild.

Since we are done with the negatives, lets talk about why i love the car. I am a driving enthusiast with a very small wallet. no car within this price range give you this amount of driving fun on the twisties (only a manual version could make this car more fun). As for the power, its not big on it however the torque comes in pretty early so thats a plus. The ride typical proton ride and handling, firm enough but still pretty comfortable for a daily drive ( some will disagree with me) The chassis is pretty decent, not to mention the safety aids. The huge plus about the ESP is it is not as intrusive as most systems. it allows for some spirited driving without cutting you off early on. Boot space is decent enough for a hatchback. I dare say compared to a preve this is a better boot as the boot entrance is very tiny on a preve. The rest of the info can be obtained on the brochure

All in all if you are the type that spends money on preventative maintenance this is definitely a decent car, although it has a dated engine with high fuel consumption. btw expect to get about 8 to 9km/l unless you spend alot of time on the highway this is the rough average of conservative city driving.

Hope i managed to shed some light on you potential Suprima purchase. All the best
