agree for what u said... i am one of the elegant brown owner...so far so good. smile_thumbup.gif smile_thumbup.gif


Can you then tell us:
1. How many liter petrol for how many km.
2. What sort of road? Town? Highway?
I prefers to use my head than follow the crowd. After all, it is my money and not theirs.

Car so far ok lar, value for money.

Went up Genting few days ago, not bad, can really overtake if tekan a bit more, with 7 ppl on board including driver (myself).

Also, did PLUS highway run, stable. smile_thumbup.gif

This is the MPV to buy. Just bear in mind, it's still Proton, needs bits of refinement here and there.

BTW, also did the 1k km service. They changed oil filter, engine oil and oil sump nut. Apparently, it's 5k service interval and not what the manual says of 10k km. Semi syn oil Petronas. No free gift though.

Hi ntc2000, previously when you drove hard to KL at 140~150 km/h, what was the ENGINE SPEED (RPM) which you saw on the display ? And so far based on 700km covered, what is the km per litre of fuel you personally calculated (not from the display) ? Thanks !

Wah lau you guys really drive a lot. I got mine almost same time as you guys but only driven 100KM. Mostly still using my sedan car instead of the MPV during CNY. For the 100KM that I drove on the exora, it showed 15-16 Liter per KM average fuel consumption, for 100% city driving.

By the way, does Proton service center allow you to bring in your own engine oil or must use their semi-syn petronas oil? How much does your 1Km service cost?

if not wrong, 135km/h around 3k rpm ... that time i rush to hospital, not really notice the rpm vs speedo

for FC, 1st tank around 0.20 with hard core driving... 2nd tank haven finish, i believe will better.

It converts to 9.5km per litre of fuel consumed, which is actually good considering that you might be running a 60/40 HW/Town drive, and not to forget you drove at 140/150 km/h to rush to hospital along the HW. And....furthermore, you have not fully run in the engine, which is about 1k km anytime soon. And a full run in may take up to 15k km.
