Sktan10 5th Gear July 12, 2008 Share July 12, 2008 As per topic,recently,probably due to the fuel hike,I saw alot of ppl pump Ron92.Personally i feel,these group of ppl are those with 0 downpayment and are feeling the pinch.I do feel the pinch of petrol price nowadays,but I'll never allow my car to drink anything below Ron95,i'm driving a jap tin can.Can this group of ppl,if in MCF,why pump 92 for your brand new alphard,civic 1.8,sunny etc? And today,this kuku driver driving a brand new civic,reach the station,don't even know how to pump,or rather wait for the service crew to help him.As the service crew approach,he asked,"sir,95 or 98?"he replied,92 will do,then keep pointing fingers here and there complaining.I mean,if can't afford to pump,don't drive. Bro,why dont u think it this way. -They are rich.They do not need to take care of their new car. -They can afford to repair their expensive car not like some of us who cannot afford to repair so must take care. -They can afford to change car anytime so why need to take care. Make sense? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, my car can drink RON91 but I've been pumping 95, maybe if it's too bad, I'll start 92 but my car can take it. I'll probably think a Civic's min RON shd be 95. Maybe he got tons of $$ for overhaul for his knocks leh......, or maybe he loves the knocking noise maybe he want to kui vtec more as ron 92 has 'lower power' ?

Kianbeng Clutched July 12, 2008 Share July 12, 2008 The E200 is not that old. 6+ years old now. But this car...alot of sensors leh. Coz I kept having to replace them. For M323, about 5+ years old, even if got sensors, I don't know coz nothing ever got spoilt. So sad coz I'm going to scrap the mazda323 this coming week. Scrap at LTA, body sell $3k. So cheap....

Felipe 3rd Gear July 12, 2008 Share July 12, 2008 car manufacturers say pump what the manual states- the minimum octane. it's not necessary to pump any higher octane. it has nothing to do with one's financial ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felipe 3rd Gear July 12, 2008 Share July 12, 2008 smooth yes for higher octane. though take note there is no difference in reliability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spas Neutral Newbie July 12, 2008 Share July 12, 2008 No offense, but I really don't see the point of your thread. Neither do I see the reasoning of your argument. If the guy can't afford to pump 95/98, he shouldn't drive? Hur? What's it to you? If the guy's skipping meals and taking food donations from temples just to own a car... Then fine, he should not be a car owner. But that's not what you're saying aren't you? So, like i said: Hur??

Passion 5th Gear July 12, 2008 Author Share July 12, 2008 From all the replies,personally felt that this is a very grey and sensitive area to alot of drivers here.Anyway,if the car can take 92,then by all means.If cannot,why still go for 92?Alphard can go for 92?Alot of those new car,or no. plate prefix SGW onwards seems to not take care of their car,so I reckon they are rich,that's why can afford to change car every other year?Well,I rest my case. Those who agree with me in the previous reply,thank you,those who doesn't,well,each got their point of view. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
