Rare & unique car mah, so not many on the road. Lion comes alone one.
Myvi, Axia, Civic is like piglets - datang ramai-ramai one.

Was considering the Civic, Pug 308 and Golf in 2009, when I got to know about LYN, specificaly, Fast & Furious.

Back then, we didn't have much information, no FB owners groups to get first hand information. We could only rely on forums like LYN, Motor Trader, and Autoworld for information. Fast and Furious punya experts macam really yes like that last time. There was even this one guy who "softmodded" his Civic FD2 into a Type-R, he seemed convincing, he even had pictures of his softmodded Civic.

I asked him whether the bangla looking foreman in the picture was the mechanic who handled the softmodding, he told me that was his "abro" (aboriginal) worker, as he was in Perth, Australia. Man, these guys in F&F really know their stuff!

Then I stumbled upon this tered  https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1093787

Check out the comments:
The "Aussie" guy was exposed as a fraud, and his tered got moved to Lowyat Kopitiam, and he became something of a meme here.

And I was stuck with a Peugeot 308, with frequent "Depollution System Faulty" messages on the dash.

Moral of the story, Follow what Kevin23 says and buy the CIVIC 2.0!

What?? Kevin23 is fraud Aussie guy??

My BIL's 308 is in his house museum and will fix it again after spending half of the original price doing own repairs because naza refused to honor warranty

Bermaz shd be better, no? Holding my purchase of new 5008 for now. If hv good reviews abt the service and warranty then can consider. Still hv many useless staff from Naza still working in 3S centers that need to change or kick out. Tongkat mentality, talk more than work, smoke every 20mins of work, mc and el problems. Shit work quality..
Why Thailand and singkie hv no problems with Peugeot while MY with ore kito always problems?

No brainer to choose pigot over FD.. I still drive my 06FD. My comp also let me use a T. Prius and Mazda 3. And my gf drive n Camry 2.5hybrird. well I enjoy the FD more then these 3 cars. And don't even compare to vios or city. FD is a very nice car. Not too heavy and not too light. My dashboard till now still doesn't gave me rattling sounds.
