what i try to say is
1.6 may b worse than 2.0 in power for sure la tongue.gif
don ever get cream interior
else yr interior gets dirty real easy

of new beetle
the interior r full of plastic stuff
for long time being, things here n there break -.-
even the dashboard can b like a crayon surface for u to draw a world map
so b prepared if u wanan buy this car unless u got tons of $$$ to spend in maintenance
it;s a great driving car but the interior quality not as nice as benz o bmw -.-

for income tax purpose
cars above 150k can only claim capital allowance of RM50k
if RM100k-150k then u can claim for RM100k for capital allowance tongue.gif

yes. the new beetle is using the 6 speed auto now. n it is like honda jazz can switch to manual as well.

if a car is under powered, wut would happen?? juz moving is slower??

rcrex - did ur mum like her beetle? how long she owned the car? any problems so far??

i think ok gua, coz my mum din demand for so much
we got it 5yrs ago from recond shop
one of the worst nightmare car for me -.-
i spoiled the dashboard after bought for a few week coz i tried to clear those sticky part -.-
n then there's air cond foam blown out from the air cond vents
even the door panel's door handle broke now that i don think my mom is powerful enuf to pull the handle till it break
that's y i said this car is full of plastic quality stuff which don last long

i duno if this thing will happen in never batches beetle o not for the time being tongue.gif
yet it's juz a lovely car if u hav $$$ to change anything once it broke down -.-

Maybe it's due to the hot humid malaysian weather that's spoiling the plastics which are used to the cool and dry weather where they are customized for the country they were sold..  hmm.gif
Possible to repair at VW Malaysia?
Affordable?  unsure.gif
*
guess what
in those europe country, summer season can get even higher temp n winter for freezing temp
juz those plastic parts r annoying when they breaks
i hav always asked to import those parts from VW SG juz to replace those worn parts -.-
yet i hope new VW wont hav such cheap material issue
maybe someday i'll juz trade in this beetle juz to change a golf gti tongue.gif
