2007 Proton Wira SE review from Malaysia
"Right for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My second week using the car the tyre blew, have to get a new one for RM 230.00 Its Goodyear 205 x 16 x 45. My comments are as follows:
1.It's a under-powered car
2. The tyres are too wide and too low profile. We can feel all bumps, maybe the absorber system is not good enough.
3. The unexpected sound can be heard, especially at the door.
4. Shame... no CD player install... just the old radio system only.
5. My top rear spoiler come out, I mean the double sided glue is not good enough. The service center try to fixed it back, but it came out back in 3 days.
General comments?
The tyre is to sporty and perhaps its not suitable for the car.
The tyre grip seem OK.. and the sound of the exhaust system is nice to hear.
For me, the car cheap compare to the RM52,000 Perodua MYVI. but proton should update several item...don't shame the country please!
