Hi...,

Just got my new Kangoo yesterday. is an auto. Still playing around with it.
Hopefully can share something with ur all.

Hv a nice day!

JJL, do give us a good review on it. Tx. How's the air cond during sunny
afternoon drive, especially the rear passengers? Cold enough? Or just so-
so only?

What price you get it? Any freebies? Sport rim etc? Which branch or SA?

[jebs]

Hai JJL.

Congrat. I test drive one last week, and wow, although it looks weird but
the handling is superb. Thinking of grabbing one, but most of my friends
says no. Citing maintainence, depreciation is high. Even my wife is
against it.
What color is your Kangoo?

[JJL]

The air cond is so-so. My previous ATOS is cooler.

I actually caught in between a "price war" from 2 SA. I think they must be
enemy to each other. At first, I booked my Kangoo at the SA at Puchong. I
got RM200 cash discout and I trade-in my ATOS with RM30k, loan 2.6%. Later,
I found out from a newspaper ad. that another SA from Ampang offered a 2
mths free loan instalment. So, I called the Ampang SA and confirmed the
offer. So, I canceled my booking and decided to take the Ampang SA's deal.
The sale manager from Puchong SA was a little bit pissed-out and he said he
will report the issue to TC. But later the Puchong SA gave my a better
offer - RM31k for my ATOS + 1 mth free instalment. Since this was a better
deal, of course I'll accept but...

Now from the Ampang SA - RM32k for my ATOS + 1 mth free instalment + 2.5%
loan interest, and guess what?? They actually promised to give me back my
booking fee that I've already paid to the Puchong SA, in case they refused
to refund it to me. Somemore I can choose the special edition color "lemon
yellow" or "Renault blue".

So, to all potential buyers, my advice: always ask for DISCOUNT!!


I heard from both SA that the coming batch, u won't have the Michelin
Energy tires imported from Europe and many stuffs will be localized parts.

Hi...

Actually I preferred the "Renault blue" - Artic blue but my wife like the
Gold color. So no choice-lah!

Yes, handling is damm good. I took the car (van??) on LDP this morning,
110-120km/h, took-over many cars from left to right, right to left. At
RM70k, u'll have a car that is full of safety features. I'll say the Kangoo
is definitely a good buy.

JJL, I know but the aircond is so-so only. Test drive few units already,
all also like tat. So I hold back first. If you say this CKD is good, then
you sure haven't test drive the CBU unit before. Yup, even the CKD
handling is a lot better than certain class, including Japs. Conti feel,
solid and assuring.

Yours come with 7 seater?

[JJL]

Hi..

I think now no more CBU Kangoo??

"Yours come with 7 seater?"
No, coz the third row seat is installed by TC M'sia. They drill 2 holes at
the back to install the seat, worry that they might damage something?!

[motong]

Hi JJL,

Can the third row seat be removed or is it fixed?

[JJL]

Hi...Tong.

Yes, just remove the nuts under the seat. Of course can't do it with bare
hand, need some tools.

[chkwong]

JJL, nope I don't have the Kangoo. But still looking around.
