2006 Perodua Myvi 1.0SR review from Malaysia
"Economical supermini for a young family of five"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
None yet.
General comments?
Roomy for a family of five -- children aged 10, 8 and 6.
Comfortable for long trips. Like the recent 850 km round trip to the capital city of Sarawak in the searing heat. In the middle of a prolonged drought.
Air-conditioner seriously cool, even at medium setting.
Needs MP3-compatiblity in stereo set. Better speakers needed too.
Noise in cabin starts to get uncomfortable above 3000 rpm.
Average weekly distance of 300 km in town driving, fuel comes to just RM30 (US$8.11). Just what a budget-consciousness family needs at a time when fuel prices are soaring.
