Hi Guys!
Just wanna share this.

I've got my Swift CBU since end of 2005. Past2-3yrs or so have been using Shell V-Power. Last Saturday the car's emission warning light (wh looks like an engine). Brought it to SC immediately. Been told that my emission sensor at the exhaust manifold detected too high emission n tis was caused by V-Power fuel. resetting the sensor only off the light for a moment n it came back on.
Started to use regular fuel now n hoping that the sensor will correct itself. Mechanic said FC will be slightly higher since the sensor is not functionin properly. If after 2 weeks still no changes, I may need to change the sensor which is more than RM500.

Beside this, my car has been problem free. So u guys may think twice the next time u fill up with V-Power.

Cheers!

now i've been hearing that one too. V-power only suitable for cars that is built for speed. the engine system for our normal swift can't cope up with it. its jaz like TRANS AM!

Sorry but what is TRANS AM?

oh so sorry. it's been a habit of mine u see. since GUNDAM 00 already finish its second season, i tend to put all the MAX word n related it with TRANS AM. Trans Am means, super duper output that a normal gundam can't cope with. haha it makes it triple fast too! ahh crap...i did it again.

anyway, v-power are advisable like once a while. I'm amaze that you can actually fuel in ur swift all the way with v-power. That is crazy! but nice! haha

Mini Cooper / S is a very good car but it is seriously overpriced in Bolehland.
In UK Swift Sport is 12k n in Msia is about 100k. ie. 8.3x
In UK Mini Cooper is about 16k n in Msia is about 200k ie. 12.5x
If u can afford it n dont mind being ripped off, then choose a MINI
