Jefflwh:

Need 3 SAVVY Owners to write a report/review on their own car/s. I will put it in my Otoreview BLOG. Don't worry, Will acknowledge your work (Harvard Referencing (ahem!)).

Report/review with AT LEAST 3 photos each car. Limited to 300 words.

In a meantime, I compiled reviews from Carsurvey website. All I can say's that 8/10 POSITIVE reviews, 1/10 bashers and the other 1/10 not used to AMT gearbox.

Why I want to blog about Savvy?
Coz Savvy owners so far no complaints about their car in terms of Reliability, Maintenance and Ride/Handling. Most of them actually sing praises to their Savvy. This is 100% contrary to SAVVY BASHERS in Autoworld.

E-mail me your report/review.

My Savvy has been in the workshop more than 5 times for non-routine fixing of problems.

Aircon pipe burst & leaked water into the cabin.
Front absorber heads faulty
Faulty ignition coil
Water pump leaking
Faulty throttle body
CD player jam (ok fine this isn't really a car problem but I had to bring it to COE to fix regardless)

IGNORE ME?

BAD MOVE... I've been trying to restore "Savvy" Reputation by Compiling AS MANY owner's FEEDBACK AS POSSIBLE... Fine, if you don't want to write bad about your "BELOVED" car, then write a Positive ones lor... I will publish it in my "otoreview" BLOG.

You guys really indulge in "GROUPTHINK" too much... Shut out outsiders KAU KAU... Anyway, from what I gather in this "CLUB", I've already known the FC, Common Problems and Positive points... THANKS...

Thanks everyone for your co-operation... Updating my blog with these NEW INFORMATION. Compiling some photos and Arranging articles from "www.carsurvey.org", LYN and SAVOC... Will write up about SAVVY by 3rd week of December (Dec 21 latest).

My Comments on Savvy from this forum. You know what?

1) Positive points STILL OUTWEIGHTS Negative points...
2) SUPER DUPER FC. 15km/l Averaged...
3) Excellent RIDE and HANDLING (Cornering at 120km/h)
4) TOP SPEED VERY HIGH for a Supermini. 170km/h (A tie with Renault Clio - Hey same engine right?). Higher than my Previous car: Iswara 1.5MPI(A) UK-spec which topped at 165km/h only.
5) Advanced "SELESPEED" type transmission (AMT).

NEGATIVE?
Let's not dwell it here... As long as I know will do...
