I'm the new owner of Viva, not really new but about a months ago. I've got the 1litre silver automatic, but not the premium. My review on the car:

Pro's:
- great handling, light steering. I drive with one hand most of the time
- the seat is very nice and soft, comfortable for long journey
- great space for four inside

Con's:
- too much feedback from suspension, means I feel ALL the bits and bumps on the road
- the build quality is rubbish, the door looks like mad out of thin sheet of metal, my PC casing is thicker than that, I wash it and I surprised I can easily bend it
- could be better with 5 speed auto for cruising on highway
- CD player is bad, the stereo is garbage, at least it can play mp3 CD
- cabin noise is too much (typical Malaysian car)
- the third brake light actually falls the first day I drove it


If you see a crazily fast silver Viva on the road (on Federal, Toll Sg Besi early morning or evening/night), you know who now....

Mp3 is a bad format in the first place, and I don't think people burn their song in mp3 to CD's. What I try to say is the sound quality is poor, and I say at least it can read mp3 CD's, if anyone used it in the first place, get my point?

Yup, obviously you don't bother read the manual or even read the CD player display

I never tried it too, at least it wrote there it can play mp3's. Probably some mp3, there are lots of mp3 encoder out there like LAME, Blade etc.

Yup, mine is 1 litre EZi Glittering Silver, a notch lower than the Premium

Let's talk about fuel consumption, how much do you guys get on one bar of petrol?

Care to explain more?
