Hmm, manual got write what need to tukar? Like those plastic pipes and etc.

Probably will get 2-3 years old car that still have official warranty from BMW Malaysia gua...cause anything happens can still go back and claim warranty.

i think last year went to the same car showcase at 1Utama but under Bermaz brand when Peugeot is still under them. 1st time saw Kia EV6 interior, one thing for sure, kinda dissapoited with the interior design, comfort and quality when the exterior was much better. Considering the price of EV6, it need much better interior.

Round2 there, Peogeot interior is better than Mazda. Japanese interior kinda playsave too much until bored if looking at all Jap brand interior

What he claim that is important to have a trusted foreman to help you maintenance...

no la..i was in the middle which choosing 318i and 118i..tried 118i indeed sporty..but think about that when my parents sit in the backside..it will abit tight..even my 5ft3 wife also feel sempit... so just ditch out the 118i..

yes, owners manual should have an accompanying booklet telling you what and when you need to change
of course price isn't listed

official warranty and 3rd party warranty is a blessing and a curse
they force you to stay in their ecosystem
pay exorbitant prices when you service the car
this is to offset the chance of your parts failing so they can cover it
but unless it is a catastrophic failure it isn't worth it

give you an example for a cheaper brand like honda.
if you drive a b-segment car like city.
if you buy standard / cheaper pads is < RM120 installed
if you buy brake pads outside oem is < RM130-RM170 installed
if you buy performance pads is <RM250 installed
if you buy originals from service center it is RM200 before installation and taxes

so what could possibly happen when you go to any 3S or 4S of BMW or Merc?
enjoy all the amenities, free coffee, cake, etc.
your bill will be 4 figures.



EV6 is the kinda level conti's are giving us for their entry level models.
there is a collusion or comparison somewhere i am sure
koreans used to pack more quality into their offerings at the same price of their competitors, they don't nowadays

there is no doubt pug's are beautiful in and out
getting them to work reliably however
i recall a friend of mine bought the 508 many moons ago
he was proud of getting a conti which he thinks is on equal footing with bmw f30 and merc cla (at the time)
fast forward 3 years the car spent alot of time in the workshop for various unsolvable issues
as soon as the car was nursed back to health he quickly got carsome to eat it

I see I see cause I always see conti car on tow truck so it's give me nightmare

if you're normal salaryman that want to try a conti before retire
yeah it is possible

1. do your research
2. join the car club of the model u like, sifu/otai there will teach u, join one of their TT session they will poison u to buy and teach you how to upkeep on the cheap.
3. throw away the notion of 'warranty will help me' first party or 3rd party warranty is a deal with the devil when buying used
4. willing to do some DIY and TLC for the car, dun drive + pump petrol, then park it at workshop and expect them to settle....unless u dun mind getting chopped
5. IMPORTANT: have a cheap but reliable car as backup or your main driver

good luck

Yes, i think most of us is salaryman.. Just make sure you keep the maintenance and do some minor DIY then u good to go.. Just remember..treat conti like your gf and she will less kacau you

i think the word is 'misstress'

hahaha!

Ya..as a normal salaryman it becomes headache when the car kacau and cannot move...then no car to go to work =/

Need to know a good repairman so they can prompt in advance to replace those tubes or plastic stuff before it breaks..cause I don't know what will or when will it breaks.

Hmm...it cant be your only vehicle..die die at least got 1 motobike or spare car...

Hahaha...can use Grab car or use wife punya Myvi

Is my wife car Le motorbike only
