Just got mine yesterday , the sales person was a personal friend of mine...which did a pretty good job on service for me...booked at 19/01/2008 , got my M-Line AT 1.3 Mountain Blue at 12/03/2008 .....Sum up to 1 1/2 month of waiting which was exactly like what he promised me when booking was made.

Anyway , just for some heads up , the showroom which i bought was Jutania Automobil at Seapark , PJ.

So far handling for the car was good , didnt get to test the full capacity yet of the engine and fuel consumption...will be able to test more on the weekends...since work is piling up on me atm.

So far so good.....cross our fingers and pray for the best.

M-Line Auto Mountain Blue.

Well a little more details since i got mine last wednesday.....pumped RM52 = 300++ km when the lights came up.

Pumped a second full tank , Rm 54 = got 320 + km.


Didnt really rev....mostly casual driving around city....Fuel economy not too bad....seems like pretty decent so far.

Now it's like 600++ km on mileage....1 more full tank and its time to service.

full tank can only fit RM 54???? can i c the picture of your car ???? i ordered mountain blue also, still waiting for car....

Well , personally i think the tank is RM 60 full...but i dun like to wait for it to be totally empty b4 refuel. why take unneccesary risks. It prolly has 6-8 litters of spare tank worth of fuel. Currently no pic of my car yet....haf to go take a shot with my Hp camera .....just tinted blue ...from Coolworld...my Rm150 voucher comes from that outlet.

So far pretty decent...car's performing to what i expected. Value for money.


Added on March 18, 2008, 10:38 amand yeah , the mountain blue looks much different from the flyers they provide. It actually looks more like the vios blue , or honda's blue. , rather then the Gen 2 kinda blue.

It turn out much better IMO.

If you're not too fussy with colors , prolly will get earlier...i gave em 3 choice of colors....so whichever comes first i will take...and it works fine with me.

Kancil also u can bring balik kampung la doh.gif

kancil balik kampung vely dangerous. I used to own a kancil b4 i upgraded it to the BLM. Man , i can't even put my luggage for 2 person inside...how to balik kampung la....unless your kampung got all the things u need already...LOL.

seriously , i guess one of the criteria when looking for a balik kampung car will be the luggage compartment, and this BLM wins hands down in it. However , there's a drawback since it's a 1.3 , you musn't overload it.

1.3 dohc actually quite ok already.
U must at least do a proper engine break in to get a good result.
With 94hp claim by proton, u should get at least 80whp. Just that how u break in the engine only.
Drive like siput, power like siput also la.
*
Well , currently i am driving like siput, most of the time on LDP , jam roads, go to office in the morning , balik in the evening , join the massive jam.....how la to speed anymore faster...? ..lol.

But once in a while got go ( 1 week once ) got go towards port klang, there can speed a little bit more......

From a layman eyes, prolly might confuse with blue(like the Gen2 blue)

House got 3 cars previously, now added my saga become 4. All taken to the same tyre shop for balancing, alignment, rims, tyres.... Sometimes they do it FOC for us, LOL.
LOL, plan to change to a MP3 support player in the future, keep 1-2 thousand songs CD better than keep 10-20 songs but thousand of CD inside the car.

By the way, I always switch radio off when start the car, city drive, highway drive for a while, just to hear is it any strange sound. Maybe I was lucky, don't have such sound tongue.gif
*
True true , my house has 6 cars also...LOL....How much does a decent Mp3 support player cost? ...if it is reasonable, i might want to change one in the near future...sounds good to keep many many songs ....insteads of CD changing again n again.

Not really tech savvy person , how do u link up your mp3 player to the CD player? via USB?
Can we link it up to the original CD player from the car?

u need to change the player.. i link it up via AUX out from the player.. the player cost RM299 (KENWOOD) bought from brothers.. can play MP3, CD n FM/AM
the output is far better than the stock player w/o amplifiers..
the player is RM299 + RM30 installation.. thats the cheapest i can scout. JVC, SONY i dun really like..  tongue.gif
*
Thanks for the advice and tips....does the RM299 set really makes a difference sound wise? i dun really have much of a comparison , tot that speakers is the ones that makes the difference. RM 299 sounds decent.... Time to save up some budget for this ....
