You're saying the wiper won't wipe the windscreen when you use the mist?
Have to manually set the wiper on?

There is no mist, only can change the wiper speed.

Cant blame them 100% bro. Now 2016,2017 coming the awareness about ABS still lacking depsite a 40 years old safety tech iinm.

Let alone about ESC.

In some country no matter how cheap your car, the ABS and ESC even is mandatory.

In Msia, u know i know la

Had to wait till the car reach 5000 km to get the accurate number. I also had to calculate it by myself, because in Saga it only show the mileage.

wat are u talking man? since when i say i dont want to be good driver? i just say even if we are good drivers other drivers can be arseholes and cause accidents. u think u good driver then u are safe? wat if some idiot just swerve into ur lane? or fully stop in the middle of highway? or u driving on a kampung 1 lane road and suddenly a car appear in front of u cos he wan to overtake the lorry?

u think every driver will obey the law and be good drivers?? doh.gif

Dat's why ler.

Anyway if you see Paultan's website, the comment section,

Same reaction/response about the ABS.

When people pointed that cheapest Saga dont come with ABS, and explain the importance of ABS, you can see so many people pressed the thumbs down button. Followed by butthurt comments.

This is not about blindly bashing the Proton, but rather a constructive critism, hoping for a better product from Proton.

Some people can't take it and butthurt.

We can see so many of them here.

Hmm this turned to an vehicle safety thread. I am one of those people that got the standard saga due to wanting manual (if wanting std saga auto, please don't). If there was an executive manual I'll take it. Bezza and persona? Out of budget and I hate the exterior design.

How to compensate this lack of abs (bestest way)? Invest in good tyres such as the Michelin ps3. The stock silverstones are rubbish. Pay more attention to road and don't do improper modifications (change rims without caring about the offset, sizing and such that screws your drivability and parts)

I'd get a used preve if i were u, not difficult to see rm30k preve manual on mudah. They're 3,4 years old at most, not like the condition can be so run down it's not buyable at all.

I blame it on talibanism. Ala, ajal maut kat tangan Tuhan, kalau da sampai masa, dekat rumah pun boleh mati!

They can go die then, but annoyingly, they become sohai drivers endangering me n other users. Fuuuuuuu

It's okay bro. Just enjoy your new car. Dont speeding. And yes, change a better tyre. biggrin.gif

The best thing about Saga manual is the low maintenance cost, and problem free. Seriously.

Well, sorry to say, in your case, you can't. If I were u, I won't proceed and get used car.

As I said, oldest Preve also 4 years old, considered fairly new, not that many things can go wrong as most parts should still be in good condition. I believe they have 5-year warranty, so still got a year at least to claim should anything go wrong.

And being manual campro NA, simpler and should be way more durable and cheaper to maintain than say, turbo CVT version.

At RM30k, half price of when brand new. Somebody else edi suffer rm30k depreciation for me, good value.

Stronger HPF shell, and being proper C-segment, more comfy on highway. 205/55/R16 also got more options for better tyres, including Michelin PS4 brows.gif

And on and on haha. But oh well, nasi sudah jadi bubur, nvm la. Saga quite nice I test drove. I thought it was just me thinking it has better NVH than persona, turns out many others think so too. Seriously I think even better than even godcar, city/jazz, I can see why it's easy to like the saga.

Just be extra careful bro. Your life is not worth saving 10, 20 seconds, trying to reach destination faster but riskier driving. Always keep a distance.

Ur tyre stock size is 175/70/R13 IIANM, consider Dunlop J5, many in fnf seem to praise its wet grip yet good price.

Regretting my Suprima purchase. Sure, its a powerful car and handles well and loads of gadgets for its price, but the CVT noise and poor sound-proofing is slowly annoying and killing me... not to mention the fuel economy... god its terrible

Haha, sorry eh if terasa, don't mean to offend u. I understand many hard to open to idea of buying used, which is damn shame cuz there's plenty of good choices for all kinds of budget.

Liddat also ok, as long as follow stock tyre size, eg for 15" is 185/55/R15 in premium spec, meter reading won't run off that far.

PS3 gooding, starts from 15". If can afford it, go for it brows.gif
