Jq1988 4th Gear September 17, 2014 Share September 17, 2014 last time I managed to get test drive ler...now cannot...bad for business man...that's reason I bought my exora proudly!! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVT Supercharged September 18, 2014 Share September 18, 2014 Perhaps Proton Showroom thought their car not roadworthy for pre-sales test-drive? Well, if you are still keen, you can go to JB to test drive. Just walk into any one of the Proton showrooms and ask for a test drive (ps: but don't tell them you are NOT a Malaysian lah). Larkin and Plentong have such a showroom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syaheerbmw 3rd Gear September 18, 2014 Share September 18, 2014 You all anyhow think of Proton negatively... The dealer in Singapore owns the dealerships of other brands also.. I think it's more of they scared people would buy Proton rather than their other brands lor, then they earn less... I was driving a Bimmer and now I'm proudly driving a Persona... I've test driven the Preve & Suprima, too, in JB... Really got attracted due to the way the cars handle and ride, due to being able to test the cars there... The ride and handling, even Korean & Jap cars hard to win... But of course, they still have to work on the interior fittings.... Ownership-wise easy to get spareparts, cheap to service also... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Moderator September 18, 2014 Share September 18, 2014 I also find it riduculous that no test drive allowed! Unless we talking about luxury/powerful cars eg Lambo, Ferrari etc, this shouldn't be the case. Some ADs will let you test drive the staff car so that could be a way round this but to totally not allowed a test drive is a no-go IMO! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coolpica 4th Gear February 22, 2015 Share February 22, 2015 (edited) anyone know what is the price of Proton Exora? Brand new? If it is, Proton has withdrawn from SG. It's listed price was $133k last Apr. Edited February 22, 2015 by Coolpica Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watwheels Supersonic February 22, 2015 Share February 22, 2015 (edited) Why should S'poreans be interested in MIM cars? Here the buyers want Made In Germany & MIJ cars. MIM do not stand a chance here in such a small market. Anyway the Sgp market won't affect the car makers much.

Zipp 1st Gear February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Please stay away for proton if you value life and safety. Nothing agains MIM cars, face, or any sorts. Seen them in many crashes and the way they fall apart.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen them in many crashes and the way they fall apart.... Haha... I only agree with you a little bit lah. But I have to say it's difficult to change the perspectives of many car buyers here. I have read that latest models of Proton cars have scored well in Australia's crash tests. If you look at recent car accident of a Honda Stream crashed on the NS highway, killing a 13yo girl as a result you will know that it's not only the car that can fall apart, the driver also plays a big factor when it comes to safety. For me the appeal of the car is very important but it's just that their cars do not appeal to me, that's all. LoL... ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
