QUOTE(anakMY @ Apr 5 2019, 08:28 AM) If compare new persona to preve, which is cheaper to maintain? Which one is more reliable? Persona is cheaper by lot. Example 80k km service persona RM2++ , Preve RM3++. you can actually see the comparison in their website. Seems like preve components doesnt last long. https://www.proton.com/en/after-sales/service-maintenance For me, all car reliable as long as u service on time. But for me on proton, it really depends on ur luck. u get lemon, too bad. u get good ones, then its the best of ur luck. I do not own any, but tested both. i like persona more despite i hate its look. |

QUOTE(Alan Andrews @ Apr 4 2019, 08:01 PM) Yup, that's my main worry. I was hoping that changing the tyres would help but apparently 14 inch rims can't be fitted on the Alza. Well, if u like it get it then. Persona have good record, comfort, and cheaper maintenance. It is also quite fast ( not as fast as that lighweight bezza.. this lil fella could go 180km/h like nothing ). So, I will be eliminating it from my list. That's actually my favourite variant of the X70. However, for now, I am not considering the X70 because it is a bit too big and I am worried that the maintenance cost might be a little too high. Thanks for your suggestion. Yes, I like the Persona because it is one of the tallest sedans and the windows are large. The interior colour scheme also suits my taste That's good but unfortunately I find the roof of the new Vios too low and the dashboard is too high. It feels dark and dingy inside. |

QUOTE(anakMY @ Apr 5 2019, 11:03 AM) I did google on the problems on preve, major prob is the oil cooler hose for turbo bocor, all engine oil will leak out and the engine might need a top overhaul... scary man... and in long term if its a turbo engine, it might affect the gearbox and engine itself too. i tot the preve was just a mule to test the turbo? no ar? I think I will not get a second hand preve turbo for now. It seems new persona is a better choice. I will wait and see. Im currently driving a persona SV. No major probs so far. turbo is for show only ofcoz u can feel the oomph but proton forget about making it as ideal daily driver. u push too much, ur f. u din push, ur f too coz u paid for the turbo.
