I have the same swirl marks on my black city too. Very painful to see, so I went to the talk with a detailer (the meguairs taiko) and he told me to tahan the pain a little, and come back after 3 weeks. He said it's to allow the paint to fully cure. So I'm trying (and failing miserably) to ignore the swirls atm.

On an aside, I have noticed that my rear bumper has 'fallen' a little. It's no longer flush with the body or rear lights. Another annoyance *sigh* ..

I went this morning, but there were already a lot of people waiting. I asked the SC adviser if I could book a slot for Monday, but he told me I'd need to book one week in advance. Will try to walk in early on Monday and hope I guess.

What are you intending to get inspected for your car?

I just read the press-release on the Peugeot 308, at 96K for the lower variant, value for money.

The higher variant, with a turbocharged engine is only 111K, pretty good value too.

So this is the car Honda was so afraid of (which is why they rushed the December launch for the City)

Honda is never afraid of anyone. Honda is only competes with Toyota, which is their only fierce rival.
Why Honda is never afraid of Peugeot?
1. Honda has 2nd hand value price.
2. Spare parts for Honda is easier.
3. Authorised SC is nationwide, including small towns.

Do Peugeot has SC all over the country? Yes, in major cities such as JB, Melaka, KL, etc. What about small town folks like us? Purposely run to the next capital to service our car?

Don't know about all that, and you have some very good points.
I just had some reliable information that Honda had to do the launch in December to preempt a competitors launch. In any case, with sales projected to slump over the coming months, every unit is likely to make a difference.

For me, I'm happy with the car I have, just need Honda to bloody fix all the issues in my car now. Then I can concentrate on other more important things in life smile.gif

I've gone for the 1st service, everythings good. Reported all the findings and they have rectified all. Basically satified with the service, it's free so far wink.gif

1. Alignment/balancing is warranty(free) for 1st 3000km.
2. Bumper got aligned back
3. Power window motor oil stain on got cleaned up, stain on window when scroll down all the way
4. Alarm sound is not adjustable, need to file complaint to HM via website feedback form
5. Air-con loud noice on high fan speed is common

Did you have the window stain issue on all your windows?

Additionally, has anyone got problems with very loud tyre noise when driving?
