QUOTE(axoloke @ Feb 3 2024, 01:40 PM) My car was parked and a neighbour banged into the side causing some bad scratches and some plastic damage. Is it better to go to a Proton body and paint / 4S center to get it fixed or any outside paint shop will do? Since it's just bodywork will it affect the warranty? Best to go Proton SC to do full check and fix, because if anything malfunctions near that area in the future (internal sensors, etc), Proton can deny warranty for those parts if they detect unrecorded repairs/accident.

Yeah, already got a quote for it. Basic repairs not too bad pricewise....but the headlight lamp has some minor scratches which will probably ignore for now. As long as it wasn't cracked basically. That piece is very expensive...

That why u see on the media they run on road for testing I see … I’m currently still driving Proton Saga SE which is more than 10 years old Am currently thinking to choose between X50, Vios or City for next car Not in rush though since I can wait and X50 is my preferred option, barring any unexpected developments or news

If you care about FC i.e. love boasting with ppl about how fuel save your car is, Vios and City are the one to go for
X50 excel in all other aspects miles away.
Edit: Oh ya if u care about boot space, City or Vios are better too
Out of curiosity since you are comparing with Sedan, why rule out S70?

S70 has sexy back design  quite like it but I also wondering about any potential issue since it was just recently release need to wait for few months to hear/read owners' feedback I'm still hearing issues with 2023 X50 which is abit "frightening"

Powertrain wise like Engine and Gearbox should be pretty good, X50 since launched did not hear any premature failure for engine & GB The minor one like wind noise also solved for X50 for the later batch. So far my X50 till today no major issue, only have the wiper sensor not turning off which they eventually solved after tweaking.

I'm still hearing issues with 2023 X50 which is abit "frightening" more to rebates. after a year on the road, Proton or Proton SA love give rebates for the car. so no harm to wait. Actually if u buy X90 or x50 now, can find SA that give rebates, x70 for sure more rebates. your pocket, your call. my case last time, x70 premium x, sst at rm7k, SA add another rebates for rm4k. that why ended up with coating and ppf This post has been edited by ayamxxx: Feb 15 2024, 08:11 AM
