206 MaDNeSS - Nightmare!!!


the pic taken a day after the accident......
W*ja is my victim

ordinary workshop refuse to repair my 206, and insist for new part, which will cost me RM1600 for new part or 800 from half cut. Luckily my fren's shop at kepong willing to knock and repaint the car for only RM250. He really save my ass......

but the repaint quality is not that good. it is start to crack already. Planning to repaint the whole body into new color. Any idea???

206 MaDNeSS - Revisited

long time no write...sighhh...
guest im kind of busy lately with my job...

i notice lately a lot of people asking about 206, opinion, etc etc....
this must be due to the 0% interest loan by Naza credit.

for those who look for the answer of their curiousity, let me ask u guy 1st..
do you want to buy this car solely because of the finance offer, or u really interested with the car..

if u only wanna buy this car due to the 0%, think again. because later on, u will regret. peugeot, is not a common car, and the brand itsef, has carry more than 100 years of reputation. their product, has been in motorsports industry since 1894. 206 lineup, have been in market for 11 years, yet peugeot still not stopping the 206 production until 2010.

most of peugeot owner in malaysia, that i know, especially the oldtimer, must have at least 2-3 peug car in their garage, or at least was in the garage. once u drive it, u may not want to drive other brand no more, especially the japanese car.

the quality, the finishing, the driving experience, has a unique quality, not like other car. when Naza took 206 and assemble locally, im so glad that i have a chance to buy it much more cheaper. but when they make a 0% deal, sigh... i think thats the best thing ever happen for peugeot here in malaysia.

but, we may face a problem, whereby the owner not really interested about the car, just the loan offer. it may happen to hardcore japanese car fans, when they will not find what they want in 206, and condemn it too much, especially when they can't find cheap parts, and much modification option (perhaps in kedai abang), compare to local and japanese car.

so for those who have a high curiosity about this car (or the loan offer), make a research, read a lot of past posting in forum (not just simply open new thread and ask question there), and prepare for uniqueness of peugeot brand (or should i say the expensive spare part, and no extreme mod option).

if u really like this car, it doesn't matter what's the loan option might be, u will definitely go for this car.
