2006 Proton Satria Neo review from Malaysia
"Compact, Sporty, Pretty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
As I got this second hand, any previous problems (if any) have been rectified. I am yet to experience any malfunctions.
General comments?
The Satria Neo is a great car to drive but pick up is a nuisance though. I don't understand why the Campro engine works pretty badly at lower revs.
The handling however is brilliant. Supposedly 'handled by Lotus', the Neo's cornering and basic steering is a joy to drive. I can't wait to hop in the car again.
If the pick up was faster, this would be a near perfect entry level car =)
