Wao lau. Why still using faux wood? Hopefully the farmers don't try to burn them when they see the wood.

[Soya]

Wahaha....slash & burn shld apply to this hideous thing

[Carbon82]

Wah, I can see so many model in this Expander. Can I say that it a value for money model, since one will be paying a low price (Asean model) with look of Lexus, Honda, Renault and Ssangyong?? Hahaha    

 

 

OK, to be fair, this Expander is more to compete with other Asean Model such as Daihatsu Terios. Honda BRV, Hyundai Creta, Nissan Livina, Suzuki Ertiga, Toyota Avanza, etc.
