3 Family Cars That Make Driving Fun

3 Family Cars That Make Driving Fun Every year, more than 500,000 babies are born in Malaysia,   according to the Department of Statistics , changing the lives of their new parents completely. While having a baby on the way may require you to get rid of your convertible, it doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice all your fun. Once you have made peace with the fact that your new car will have to be   roomier and considerably safer , you can start looking for a vehicle that will not deprive you off all your joy. Thankfully there are a number of cars that are not only extremely practical, but are fun to own and drive as well. 3 Family Cars That Make Driving Fun

Top 10 Fuel Efficient Cars In Malaysia - Get More Mileage

Image
With the Ringgit going down day by day, one must be finding those cars which could save them few bucks. To add fuel to fire, the petrol prices have also come up. Nowadays, refueling your car may turn out to be a big drain in your wallet. Moreover, majority of us depend on private vehicles as a mode of transport instead of going for public transport. Even the automakers these days are striving to improve their vehicle's fuel consumption so that we can get more mileage for less fuel.  Below I have listed one of the most fuel-efficient cars which you can find in Malaysia.  1. Proton Iriz 1.3 MT

Korean Car Mates (KCM) - Korean Cars Specialist Service Centre

Image
My ride has been my workhorse for the past 2 years+, 3years exactly this October, now clocking in at over 120,000 km. Ever since my 100k km mark, I've begun servicing my Kia Forte outside the Kia service centres , mainly due to the prohibitive high pricing that Naza charges for servicing and labour. I have modified my ride to the extent that voiding the factory warranty seems pretty reasonable for the huge savings incurred by servicing it outside.  This time around, for my car's 120,000km service I did it at KCM (Korean Car Mates), the Korean Cars Specialist at Glenmarie Shah Alam after hearing lots of recommendations from fellow car club members. Check out my experience, the pricing and what has been changed in my post below.  Korean Car Mates (KCM) - Korean Cars Specialist Service Centre

Just yesterday, I dropped by Naza World over in PJ to catch their Chinese New Year Lion Dance performances. The Kun Seng Keng Dragon & Lion Dance Association troupe came all the way from Muar to perform for us that afternoon. Being the 2010 and 2011 Champion in the World Lion Dance Competition , I went expecting a good performance and they did not disappoint.
