It's a good price. S-Max was selling at RM185k at launch for the 200BHP variant.

RM25k discount is a good price. The last I checked was only RM22k.

Update on this oil leak. Apparently it's coming from the bushing of the front suspension lower control arm. Googled for more information and apparently it's quite common. The bushings used in the S-Max are hydro bushings and when they fail, the fluid inside leaks out.
SDAC has ordered new lower control arms for me and they expect them to arrive in about 3 weeks.
My 40k km service today was pretty good. In the past I was always made to wait to be served but this time, I was served immediately both when I sent my car in and when I collected it. 4 brake pads replaced, rear discs skimmed, brake fluid flushed and the air-cond odour filter replaced. All FOC

Did you ask early December?
The discount has been increasing towards end Dec 2012 and once crossed over to Jan 2013, even more discounts now.

Yes, early December. So much discount, does it mean new facelift or upgrade model coming
