  1. hello everyone. i need help in getting a car insurance broker to quote some car insurance. also need to find out where to get good quality car window curtain. tia.
  2. [inline lan08_pglgprev_ex_5_en-us.jpg] Guys just to share, after C&C showroom at Alexandra Road, test driven the lancer GT 2.0. 1) agressive exterior body (the most wicked, most "ruthless" looking lancer yet ) ,THE CAR DRIVES SO SMOOTH, GREAT PRICE WITH NICE OPTIONS, Cool technology for a compact, Nice interior, Amazing design)! 2) Engine is like a Intel E6300 (if ya knew what I meant) at least at 20++hp increase with 'Legal mods' 3) Noisy? Not anymore! Plenty of good workshops to work around the level of class you desire for the best of music or handphone conversations in the comfort of a beast! 4) Slow? 18" rims to 16" or 15" gives greater performance and better fuel economy, not to mention almost free trade-in prices at some shops! 5) 2 litre turbo? Hehe (darkside) Plenty of space in the engine bay for bad boys racer, to punish this ride to the max! 6) WARNING: DO NOT BUY THIS CAR IF YOU DO NOT LIKE TO ATTRACT ATTENTION!!! 7) Anybody says ICE sounds bad? After sound proofing, the ICE will R O C K! 8) What can I say? Sometimes I wonder why god made this design soooo perfect? I love it! 9) to be filled 10)to be filled All in all, the lancer is a much better valued car than a civic any time!
  3. Hi Broz n sis, got anyone driving suzuki MK3 before? got any parts tat is filling up ur room or store area. maybe can sell at cheap cheap to me? kindly PM me can? THanks you very much. Cheers man
  4. No need to keep thinking or argue whether the Alfa specs in SPR are the real deal or not... just a sample of what it should be if it really WAS! These are Ti versions of the 159, brera & the GT Q2 with exterior & interior trim updates... notice the GT grille with REAL brushed steel trimmings... the burnished/wine stained leather interior of the alfa SPYDER - u think JACKSPEED in spr follow this same standard? (and who said Alfa interiors were crap quality?) One thing i noticed when at he Tokyo motorshow... the Alfa booth staff seem to be much more "dao" then the rest of the other marques leh... ALL their show cars were LOCKED... and there was a 300+ strong queue of ppl waiting in line for the Alfa Romeo brochure..... I would have thought that el-cheapo Alfa would have no one at their booth or maybe tat was a tactic to make the booth look busy? No other marque required you to Q for their brochures etc.. i didnt bother to wait. oH YA... just a bit of car nut TRIVIA for anyone interested: My photography not good so the special 8C paint work turns up more orange colour in me photos... it is actually a very deep red. And do not go mistaking this paint to be similar to the MICA metallic Red on the RX8 or special edition Metallic Red Lexus GS300 at the show... u could see the metallic bits in the paint on the Jap makes... but for the 8C red, it was a SILVER metalic film covered with a CLEAR RED tint lacquer... so u do not see flakey gold bits in the red paint at all. cheers

  10. Was driving home along ECP towards airport just past the Keppel Viaduct. What happened after that sure placed things into perspective. Was on the way home after visiting my doc and it was really pouring today, one of the worst I've ever experienced, especially when driving. Was just happily cruising along when I suddenly heard a voice (God) telling me to slow down and not follow the taxi in front of me at too close a distance. Next thing I knew, the taxi, which was on lane 1, swerved left and right, it's pathetic tires lost grip (they really should change to better tires or if not, change regularly). The out-of-control cab tried to regain control but too late, it slammed into the side of another taxi on lane 2. It didnt stop there! It continued swerving left and right left and right and I was fast approaching it. Traffic was rather heavy and moving fast (70 at least - fast when considering the rain). Had to make split decision to decide where to swerve to steer clear of the cab (here i thank the driving skills gained on PG with the rest of you guys man). Managed to clear the still moving cab. Please guys, change your tires if they are due and don't save money on tires, especially when changing to big rims.
  11. After test driving the Superb 2x, despite all the goodies as descr. in other threads, deep in my heart i felt something missing comparing to my current ride, 2003 impreza ts Slowly i start to realise.. the missing part: - noise.. my current ride is quite noisy, from engine as well as from tyre. a colleague said its like in a tank but hey.. i kinda liked it, boxer engine sounds shiok..(sound only..but no power..) now.. in spb.. this seems to have been gone.. actually felt a sense of loss.. - road bumps spb of course absorbs the pimples and potholes of the roads much better.. i felt strange with the tranquility on my butt - drive and steering feel somehow felt different.. the feedback on the steering wheel seems lesser than the impreza.. - driving in the wet corning in spb on dry dn't really feel any diff with my impreza (ok.. perhaps haven't really pushed on spb) i've gone through big pools of water in my 1992 sunny b13 before and it fish tailed; the impreza, swee swee plough through (but felt resistance from the water). but how about spb? i haven't tested spb in wet conditions.. not sure how u guys feel having a spirited drive in wet.. perhaps i'm feeling insecure without the awd i'm having with my impreza.. anyway, i still got a good 3-6 months before changing car.. can still think..
  12. Hi all, I've just settle some queries.. and got the feedback on this about car insurance. Scenario : Car A kana knock by 3rd party (Car B) Car A paper value - $38K Car A market value - $41K Repair cost quoted by workshop - $5K Conclusion : The insurer of the Car B will pay owner of Car A $38K & take the car AND WILL NOT PROCEED WITH THE REPAIR!! NOTE : Let assume Car B = Car A (Same car & everything else assumed to be the same), THEN THE INSURER OF CAR B WILL SCRAPED BOTH CAR GET THE PAPER VALUE & PAYS OWNER OF CAR A & B, THE PAPER VALUE!! So for those with car that's low in paper value & low in market value... pls take note.
  13. Ok... Here are the 2 things which I'd like to find out abt Skoda Octavia... 1)Does it have a reserve fuel tank? If it does, when does the reserve tank kick in? 2)The mechanic tat did my 50K servicing told me tat the Octavia aircon doesn't use aircon filter. Is tat true? Because I asked him whether aircon filter needs replacement or not since I'm doing my 50K servicing... Thanks
  14. Hi - I am seriously considering an unit, mileage 30K, anyone can share what are the things to look out for prior to signing on the sales agreement?
  15. ....I wonder if I'll be the last Mk2 Toledo on the road, come, say, 2008 Just a thought for a Monday morning
  16. OK here is the low down. I've been lurking in many detailing forums and here is what I found out. Most of them in the consumer market have only..........4.5% the most. Huh? You may ask why. This is the reason. High content carnauba wax car waxes are very difficult to apply. Surface will also be uneven. Because it is uneven, it will require sun baking as experienced by Jesse James. Quite like kiwi on boots then, flame it over a candle to melt it so that the surface will be even. Normal car wax is between 2.8 to 4.5% carnauba content. High content carnauba wax also leaves an oily surface. Swissol is very high content carnauba wax and also very expensive. They advertise mainly in a magazine for the rich and famous called Robb Report . Jesse James must be robbing stage coaches to pay for it . Sorry about that jab Jesse. Hehehehe.
  17. Will be getting my Accent 1.5M soon. Paid 53,888 for it. Think its cheaper now. Need to know what to check when taking the car, so that i won't lose anymore.
  18. Big Boys like General Motor, Ford, etc sometimes 'skrew' things up ie kill good car models..... heard rumours that Saab is not going anywhere in the eyes of parent company GM.... that'z why GM now wants Saab to make 'small' cars basing on Subaru platform..... Saab actually has been an innovative/competent car maker in the past and we see evidence of this in their models, but somehow the bottomlines have not been impressing GM....... hope we wont see the demise of the brand in few years' time.... (maybe GM knows some inherent 'defects' in Saab's designs/pricings/strategies which we dont??)
  19. ........ someone has done this to his Airtrek...
