its a good value actually,good spec....dual airbag,ABS,disk brake all around...
.and now finally its official , service to be done every 10000km NOT 5000k.....smile.gif

its a refined car,power is more than adequate...interior looks old now bt fit n finish is not bad....
by now all major issue should be ironed out bcos its been in the market for ages...

and as with every proton,u always have to remember the price,jus to make ur expectations lower abit...

for its price new...no other car can give wht it offer.
good car which is more than enough for your daily needs.

i was at proton carnival in melaka last week and notice one big difference from the normal persona.
i notive that the sv comes with front upper strut bar.
wonder why the sv needs it.

i actually butthurt by the release of this car as i owned a H-line Persona elegance.

the only thing that differentiate SV & H-line is :

skirting
leather interior
auto cruise that seldom being use.

you got :
- ABS
- EBD
- all around disc brake

buy SV, topup around 2K for full color skirting & another 5-600 to put seat cover. then u become H-line.


my car resale value drop gila2 wehh.. smile_blackeye.gif

same feeling when they launch the saga 1.6.
for few additional thousand i can get 1.6 engine and leather seat.

from a reliable source, there will be a new model launch this apr/may.yup its the one we see more and more on paultan these recent month.the spec is quite interesting for its price range.
powerplant is an improved version of an existing unit.

this does not excite me much,what they have in store next year is much more yummy.......too bad i made a promise not to tell anyone abt wht the person told me.i sure hope it will be realise.

It's a good deal.. Don't have to worry so much...

Matured model and it's cheaper than an overpriced Myvi

good to hear that.
last night i went for a leisure drive,downhill at a place in n9.
i havent done it for a while and overshoot a braking point at a right hander...abs+ebd+lotus tuned suspension helped me to maintained control.

its not just for having fun but for u to have faith in yr car during emergency.u will know what i mean when yr occupant is either remained muted or screaming frantically while u r enjoying the drive or still calm during emergency braking.

my auto persona survive sepang circuit on stock setup. clocked 3:10.
yes the cornering very stable.. if you go down to 195/55/15, lowered ride and sportier suspension.. i think can go faster around the corner smile_approve.gif
