Yamapi 6th Gear December 5, 2014 Share December 5, 2014 (edited) A couple collected their brand new diesel car that costs $138,000 on September 21 this year. After 4 days of driving, they went to a gas station in Tampines for refuel. It was their car's first and last tank of diesel. Engine needs replacement due to water in engine. Costs of repair 28k. http://news.omy.sg/News/Local-News/story20141205-310670 Edited January 23, 2015 by Ragingbull ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaguarXF 4th Gear December 5, 2014 Share December 5, 2014 I am enjoying my diesel for 3 years now. Never had any issues. Acceleration was fantastic after clearing Malaysia custom.
