haha.. u right
then i ask highway support to change spare tyre (8yrs....)
but slow moving to nearby change new tyre...

Wow... that's just as risky... lol

I remembered my wife's car(last time still dating), one of the rear tyre... the whole thread came off from the wall... I asked her, how many years is the tyre... she said, just as old as the car.... and the car was 5yrs plus

luckily mine only 1 portion blow out.. and is rear..
so didnt buang krt.. hahha

noisy improved is great ...
prepared for high service cost ...

michelin tires very soft and nice ...but the flower not very long lasting ...and the rubber can become hard...
can ran 5yrs consider very good ..your car not every drive ? or drive only short distance ?

not consider too long for 5years ?

not everyday drive.. every month/2 months go KL only.
the rest weekly is city drive only.

thats why can last 5 years.. hahaha

no wonder ....seldom drive only can last for so long ...if every day moving...3years will be Max lo....haha....

Maybe just go for high end BR-V... Sad la.. 4 out of 5 ppl said dont buy BR-V

Lucky you!

haha... pickup not that power... heavier... plastic build... noise
good in price.. spacious for 4 or 6 person.. 7 will be too compact for long distance... stylish... high clearance... petrol friendly...

if upgrade from local car.. then ok... if got exora then dun buy.. the power will be great disappointed... better than alza.. avanza... if wan autodoor then go sienta...

how about from Grand Livina?

Well, you did mentioned that cars at this price range are noisy... so that's one which is not so... Service cost is another factor and same goes usable cabin space.

That's what I read regarding car tyres... good up to 5years even you have not worn out the tyre threads... when entering 5yrs onwards, the vulcanized rubber will deteriorate badly... then again, they are other factors like parking whole day in the sun, or by the seaside or 4 season countries... yada yada etc... could prematurely wear the tyre material.

Well... that's their opinion... every car has their fault even a luxury or a supercar... but the bottom line is, which car interest you, fits your usage and budget and lastly, are you willing to live with that car's fault.

Btw... what sort of other cars had others convinced you to go for? Just curious. I'm less biased when it comes to cars.

Grand Livina isn't too bad... it sold quite a number of units of those 10yrs... can't go wrong unless you're particular about it's engine and 4AT and lack of creature comforts(etc... leather chairs). The Grand Livina is due for a new model soon and I suggest those looking that way, wait for it next year. Else... BR-V!!!

year of car release also a point to take note
as newer car.. tech higher also

livina not in my list at all LoL..
aquila gv a good point.. 4AT i will jz avoid it..
as during highspeed long run... the noise + petrol burn rate i dun like... haha

2nd that. 4AT is just very jurassic park already. When you're running 110 - 120km/h, do you want your RPM at 2k+ or 3k+? haha... easily settled.

a lot low/mid end car still using it ah...
cost saving fren.. hahha

thats why i looking cvt... as 5AT above... the cost of car will out of my budget.. hahahha

70~80K - basically choices available for me is City, Vios and BRV for H and T brands

yes mentioned the price range are noisy ...and yes ..service will be another factor ...

Well, if you want a car can do everything ( fetch more than 5 person, carry big stuff etc..) brv should logical choice.
Buy car is personal requirement, if the car fit your requirement then thats the car for you. Not base on other ppl opinion.
They are not paying for the car, but is you..

normal gear, engine oil change..for detail need to dig receipt. Honda 6months service intervals..
