After the first major 2-part service I thought I’d be all good, after spending RM6100…I thought I’d be ready to go! But no, the car was smooth and powerful now but the idle was very lumpy, there was jerking during WOT (wide open throttle) and it STILL kept stalling. This was the part where things […]

So I’d got my car and as the tyres were almost bald and seriously hardened, I got those changed first thing as a priority. After that came time for the first major service, this is an important thing to do when you buy a second hand car – even if it has a ‘full service […]

And no, it wasn’t in my dreams! I’ve always been a huge lover of Aston Martin, a proper homegrown British luxury car marque. Although it’s debatable if Aston is still really British or not (partially Kuwaiti owned now). The actual car I fell in love with was the Aston Martin Virage Volante convertible. Anyway a […]
Sepang Open Track Day – November 29th 2009
So yesterday afternoon a friend of mine was taking his Airtrek on the track to test it out. It was a regular open track day and we had perfect weather for racing! Dry, slightly overcast and nice and warm, really good weather for banging those corners. We met up in the afternoon and grabbed some […]

I’ve been wanting to change car for a long time, but due to saving for something else and financial commitments it really wasn’t a smart thing to do. So I had to bite my tongue, suck it up and carry on. Not that I minded my previous car, the best Proton ever made, the Lotus […]

Subaru S-GT 2.0 Turbo – Test Drive In Malaysia
So, lucky me! I got to test drive a 2008 Subaru S-GT for 2 days a couple of weeks back and boy it was fun (and makes me want to urgently change my car to something with slightly less rigid suspension). The S-GT is what is known as the Subaru Impreza WRX with an automatic […]

After I went to Batu Caves for Thaipusam…my car broke down on the way back, it actually seized up.. I smelt burning. I wondered?! Then I noticed the temperature was rather high, oh dear….the coolant was topped up which means there was a problem with the cooling system. I managed to get the car home, […]
