I was hoping to take advantage of this GST tax break + festive discounts. Yes, the 3rd row is for my children use only when I bring my parents for the very occasional short trips.

Although I'm ok driving my Accent for another 1-2years, my wife driving her 14yrs manual Wira may not feel the same 
Mitsubishi Bangi only offered me 5k discount, looks like need to find better SA from elsewhere if I really want an Outlander.

Safety is lacking with 2 airbags

yes.. the 4wd system did save me a couple of times during heavy rain and puddle.

Does your company provide company car?

just bought Outlander 2.0. I think for its price, worth every penny. now comes with complimentary 360 view and leather seat

You can get relatively new pre owned diesel santa fe below 100k. Still have few more years warranty at least. Diesel santa fe or sorento good fuel consumption, drinks like normal d segment sedan.

The one i asked is at mitsubishi kuantan. U may search for khairul mitsubishi at facebook. The showroom is Okuan Motors, Kuantan. Next to volkswagen. Last time wel talked he said still got stock for 2.0

Will give good consideration for used Santa Fe, thank you.

At first I was quite skeptical to buy it due to the lack of 2nd row aircond vents.

As I have the urgency to upgrade my sedan to a larger train, I decided to narrow down my opt to Wish, Estima, BRV and Outlander. Yes, they came from different segments but I wasn't looking for a segments. If its good, I'll go for it.

And then I realised that why would I go for a recond if I can get a brand new car? Making the BRV and Outlander on top of my list. Sometimes the Xtrail came to mind but they do have some known issue with the gearbox, so i wouldn't want that.

As to date, Honda Malaysia have issues with their QC, after sales service and spareparts. Long story short, I opted for Outlander. The aircond is cold as heaven, but its gonna take arnd 5 minutes for the cold air reaches the back. The spaces inside are sufficient, not that big but fits enough for me and my family.

Just came back from showroom in balakong. SA told me no more stock for now until early of nov. Wondering if anywhere else still got stock?

For the price and features, Outlander 2.0 is a good choice.  Just go for it.

If afraid of no 2nd row aircond, just buy and install one roof mouted fan like the following :

Dear auto sifus, I'm thinking of buying a SUV for my work and family use. Currently driving a 2010 Hyundai Accent MC and plan to pass that to my wife. The reason for a SUV is due to my new worksite being in a rough road and flash flood prone area. The area where I drive by to get home are also prone to high water levels on the road when it rains heavily. I also drive my family to my MIL place once a while which is in a kampong area. I know there are a few other choices other than Outlander so below are my requirements:

1) Need extra 2 seats. Occasionally I bring my parents out for dinner/shopping nearby with my family of four so need extra seats for the short drives.
2) Need space as both my children are growing and the Accent is quite tight at the back.
3) I capped my budget at 130K (few extra thousand is ok)and the 2018 Outlander 2.0 is offered at 127K (without insurance).
4) My drive style is pretty sedated and mild so a powerful train is not a requirement.   
5) I drive around 35k KM a year and have no resale plans. Just plan to pass it to my wife after 6-7years. 
6) Reasonable maintenance costs.

The other option would be X-Trail 2.0. There are quite a number of users in my company and I've driven them few times. I have tested the Outlander and feel it has better road grip, better NVH and the 7airbags are good safety options to have.

What are sifus opinions/advice? Any feedback (positive or negative) from users currently using the Outlander is highly appreciated. Thank you.

Quote me if you have questions on Santa Fe.
