Nissan Almera 1.0 Turbo (VLT) R2 - Owner's Journal

Will be sharing my Ownership Experience / Costs / Thoughts / Issues. I am no expert in the matter nor do I have any knowledge in cars. Used to be driving my Dad's Nissan Almera (N17), purchased in 2013. It was the highest specification - VL if I am not mistaken. Was looking for a new car and was in a bit of a hurry. Called up Honda, Toyota, and Perodua; waiting time was about 4 months. Called up Nissan, waiting time was 1 month. Hence, I purchased the Nissan Almera Turbo 1.0 (N18). Purchased it from Edaran Tan Chong Motor (Tengah) Sdn Bhd, Seksyen 13, Petaling Jaya Branch. I purchased it from the Salesperson named Luqman Hakim, great guy and explained well. Only thing my concern was the 7,000KM Service Interval. But I still went with it.

Initial costing are as follows:

Booking Fee: RM 100.00

Registration Date: End September, 2022

Vehicle Selling Price: RM 95,668.00

Additional / Optional Accessories, Package - Tomei (VLT): RM 8,000.00 (EDIT: This was Free)

Year Road Tax: RM 20.00

Year Comprehensive / 3rd Party Insurance, (RHB / Insured RM 96,000.00): RM 2,626.59

Registration Fee: RM 150.00

Hire - Purchase Ownership Claim Fee: RM 50.00

It comes with 5 Years / 70,000KM* WITH 5 TIMES FREE MAINTENANCE SERVICE ON ALTERNATE INTERVAL FROM 7,000KM / 6TH MONTH*. PARTS & LABOUR INCLUDED. (*WHICHEVER COMES 1ST)

Vehicle Warranty: 5 Years Warranty With Unlimited Mileage

Free Gift: Road Tax Sticker

Free Gift: Umbrella

Please do take note that I had purchased my License Plate Number through the JPJ E-Bid prior to car purchase. With the E - Bid, you have 1 Year to register the vehicle with the number plate (might vary from time of posting). Hence, that is probably why there isn't any License Plate Fee.

Additionally, I will not be sharing my loan details / initial payment amount whatsoever as it varies with each individual.

Turbo looks good

I will buy one if I have extra money

O to gear box rosak how fast

95k plus the body kit 8k is already 103k.

now b segment jap car all start to enter 100k range.

Bodykit need to buy? They dont give free?

That's why nissan fail in malaysia.
See toyota give bodykits free je

wow dint expect it to be that expensive

Where's the experience?

Got heater a/c or not?

It spells Saga?

you write so details, why never share how much discount your SA give you, or how much you over trade your car?

Tan Chong is famous to give very high discount for their cars.

how's the paint quality? cheapo / thin like the new vios?

Loleut

7k service interval, strange. mostly either 5k or 10k.
