From what i read so far, most of the owner here bought a ML or HL model only. Is there anyone bought a BL model?

Hope can share why you buy BL/ML/HL smile.gif
*
1st of all, ask yourself is airbag+abs+whatever traction control you like for your wheel? If the answer is YES, i need those standard on my car, then you can forget about BL..straight away go for ML or HL!

Reason why i choose
1st) It is Cheap, Auto rm48k...save rm5k compare to ML..
2nd) i don't care bout abs+airbag thingy..it is just a entry level small car
3rd) i don't need t genuine rims+rubber...
4th) i don't need the rearfoldable rear seat...it's too small for carry big item..might as well get help from my family mpv..
5th) i prefer rear disc...but only available for HL..rm8k different!....if got ML got rear disc brake..i straight away go for ML already... smile.gif
even my family spare car which is 14years ford laser comes with rear disc..eletronic door mirror, adjustable steeringwheel n bla bla.. sad.gif
6th--->no matter what base, medium high, special..extra luxury edition they produce, it is just a PROTON afterall..i hv no confidence at this company...am i a Typical Malaysian?? smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif

7th->Frankly speaking because i cannot afford sub rm85k car now sad.gif sad.gif .., i need to takes -7years loan..Why not pick the 4x-5xk car..loan 4years..then upgrade to better ride..

me...because i want solid white...because not much different between BL and ML...because i want to change the rims...because BL is lighter than ML and HL...because my budget is not as high as HL...because im only 24 and just started working 6 months...

true..honestly...in my opinion its either BL or u go all out for HL...i agree with ralf...if ML got disc brake....i take already..but none...and for me..im changing the rims...no point buying ML...

foldable rear seat?..why the hell would i want dat?...unless i want to orgy ramai2 at the back... brows.gif

airbag is the only advantage i see in ML...but dat costs over 4k extra...with aditional 25kg extra weight as compare to BL...

...Disc brake does make a big difference...it release heat faster, unlike spongy rear drum brake.. smile.gif

As mentioned many times, front brakes are more important because power is transfered to the front wheels, and for front wheel drive, power distribution is all on the front. Rear brakes are just to assist e-braking, that's all.

Rear brake disc performance is more significant if it was rear wheel drive or all-wheel-drive vehicle.
*
ya..true true, front contribute 70-90% braking...
but 10-30%(depends on car model) of braking force still apply on rear wheel when u step on the brake pedal..

In fact, most of the modern vehicle is advance now, u cannot tell the difference on normal driving what's t difference btw rear drum n rear disc!
the most significant difference...try this---> do a handbraking U-turn..90/180/360 degree tongue.gif ...pull the e-brake hard to lock rear wheel..easier to lock t wheel on Rear drum car..Dunno why??

for enthusiast driving n Look, i still prefer t rear disc..the brake pad on rotor clamp at the disc..
Imagine you have big rims, eg: 17" and super tiny rear drum..Not nice.. tongue.gif tongue.gif
