		<description>&quot;Doesn&#226;&#8364;&#8482;t anybody realize, its the volume of protons sold which similarly gives you the volume of complaints..&quot; 
 
 
this type of argument from proton or from that mahaleel is really lame. even though we may not have the ability to find out how many % of proton owners have complaints about thier cars. But one thing is certain, the chances of having friends or families who bought proton and are complaining and unhappy about it is alot higher than having friends or family who bought proton and are happy with it.  
 
it might be wrong to generalize the statement to the rest of proton owners in malaysia. but the fact remains that it is indeed a safe bet to assume that proton cars are indeed problematic from your own experience and those around you. andit would seem better not to try prove ourselves wrong and go on buying a proton as your next car few years down the track.  
 
 
Hyundai cars seem to get very good reviews from newspapers and auto magazines. so they must be doing something right. and i thought KIA is part of hyundai that caters as the &#039;proton&#039; of korea and hyundai. or maybe its daewoo or maybe im wrong. </description>

		<description>mmm 
i don&#039;t agree with just bashing proton 
i think it is the goverment policy that made proton less competitive 
as you can see from the AP and corruption 
corruption = goverment 
heheh 
 
REFORMASI! </description>

		<description>K, another round of proton bashing... 
Quite interesting that at recent time Proton ex-CEO Mahadeel came out to defend what he have done for proton before also. (I read it at NanYang last 2 day, just wondering why no one posting the article yet. So, Paul! We waited u for too long...)  
It&#039;s just ridiculous that the comments are like &quot;Those bashing Protong never driving Protong car before&quot; la, &quot;Protong car&#039;s defect rate just 1% only&quot; la... blah blah... 
I&#039;m sure that most of the Protong &quot;bashers&quot; here got the suck experience owning Protong car or still driving it, like Ferox said: 
 
&quot;Out of 1 Million Protons sold, similarly gives us 1 Million Complaints. This is the great &#039;Proton One to One Guarantee Policy&#039;. &quot; 
 
CLAP it!!! </description>

		<description>A friend of mine has a Spectra. When she first got it, I thought the car was not too bad la... Quite stylo mylo at the time... Then I drove it.... I think it has to be the second worst car I have ever driven, losing out only to the 1st generation Kancil! the rear view mirror is almost useless because of the funny angle the rear windscreen has been placed. The overall ergonomics in the driver AND passenger area is terrible! 
 
Looks wise however, I still think if you kena some 3k metallic black on the car, put on a nice bodykit and get a nice set of rims, the car will look better than most other &quot;done up&quot; cars! </description>

		<description>KIA&#039;s car really sux few years b4, my house have a KIA sephia, i&#039;m sure my wira better than it in any place. recently my fren bought a spectra, i see, n heard from my fren, it really improve a lot from previous through hyundai&#039;s job better than KIA&#039;s. my fren very quite happy with it, ok, i believe KIA can done much more better in future. but i dont have such feeling in proton&#039;s latest models, feedback from fren around who driving it, rarely will heard they will go for another proton, they rather pay double for a better next car which gorv will tax on them. 
i think that&#039;s not hard for proton to improve, but he choose to protect these local expensive + low quality parts supplier, to keep them alive. he want to be hero. 
nah, customer are not stupid after 20years, or actually we dont want to be the &quot;man behind hero&quot; anymore? that&#039;s y u see perodua&#039;s car selling, daihatsu will not allow them to be such hero, their tag are precious, no gorv going to protect them. 
hopefully proton will give up their hero work, to give us better products. else, nah, u see what&#039;s my next car! </description>

		<description>&quot;Aiz,proton debate again&#226;&#8364;&#166;&quot; 
 
What debate? This isn&#039;t a debate, this is Proton Bashing. Get that right! Woohoo... another round of Bashing. Alright Proton Bashers let&#039;s hear it. Haha. 
 
&quot;Doesn&#226;&#8364;&#8482;t anybody realize, its the volume of protons sold which similarly gives you the volume of complaints..&quot; 
 
You&#039;re quite right Prometheus. Out of 1 Million Protons sold, similarly gives us 1 Million Complaints. This is the great &quot;Proton One to One Guarantee Policy&quot; No Questions Asked. (More like no Answers given). Haha. No other car maker have better policy than our Proton!!! </description>

<p>&quot;Doesn&acirc;&euro;&trade;t anybody realize, its the volume of protons sold which similarly gives you the volume of complaints..&quot;</p>
<p>You&#039;re quite right Prometheus. Out of 1 Million Protons sold, similarly gives us 1 Million Complaints. This is the great &quot;Proton One to One Guarantee Policy&quot; No Questions Asked. (More like no Answers given). Haha. No other car maker have better policy than our Proton!!! </p>

		<description>Prometheus, 
 
What they say is and condemn is about PROTON&#039;s ability to look foward and improve.  
 
PROTON shows no potential at all with super ugly models coming out. Poor design, poor safety feature and bla bla bla.... 
 
See if they can sell so cheap in UK (with extreme long warranties) why we the Malaysian who have been supporting PROTON since day one get to buy our so called &quot;NATIONAL CAR&quot; much moire expensive (with a extremely short warranties) 
 
This just doesnt make sense at all. We support PROTON and in return we get to buy this shit box much more expensive......ridiculous rite..... 
 
 
sigh........ </description>

		<description>Oops, double post. 
 
The Proton&#039;s in the UK aren&#039;t cheap. If you saw Paul&#039;s post a while ago on the 3 cars subjected to the Euro NCAP Tests. Jeremy Clarkson asked &quot;Do you want this (Waja) to save a little or pay a bit more for a 5 star like this (Toyota Avensis) 
 
I think.. </description>

		<description>The Putra is the cream of the crop. While the Sportage is not. 
 
I think the Sonata&#039;s nowadays might fare better. After all , Hyundai improved much faster. </description>

		<description>So many words, I cannot gather the point.. Can someone please summarize?  
 
&quot; am not anti potong as i owned 1 b4. But globalization is on track now and comparison makes u look competence or otherwise&#226;&#8364;&#166;condemned!!&quot; 
 means what eh? Must be my england no good. Sorry 
 
&quot;if oni potong&#226;&#8364;&#166;then i will be wasting my time in UK seeing potong compare to those british and continental cars&#226;&#8364;&#166;&quot; 
 
You do know that Protons are selling in the UK at very very very low prices with extremely long warranties?  
 
Thats how they can compare lah. I don&#039;t think Proton makes much money there. not sure. Check the UK proton website. If I&#039;m not mistaken only 1 pound can get u a car. Can&#039;t do that with any other conti cars. </description>

I Have a Proton Putra and a Kia Sportage. The Putra is 5 years old and the Sportage is 6 years old. I&#226;&#8364;&#8482;ll never ever buy another KIA again. But i&#226;&#8364;&#8482;ll buy another Proton. 
 
----&gt; 6 year ago...Putra maybe better than sportage..and poor sportage, when it launched not long...Kia went into insolvency and was took over by hyundai. So thats virtually no improvement allowed. hmm anyway we are not looking behind...my fren can be proud when he first got his Saga Magma.  
 
Ok done about &quot;history&quot;. We have no issue if you want to buy another proton or even your whole family want to use proton. The manner fact in the market is Kia sportage is now designed to be better lookin and more reliable...Putra? sorry its a HISTORY dude! afterall now 1 model has improved to be a better quality car while the other has gone into history book. What is there to compare? We are looking at the progress buddy...not stop at the time proton launch their new model and everyone feeling proud to own a proton even the car has its own problem.  
 
Look forward la plsss...Did Kia stopped themselves in the lights of Sephia and sportage?? Nope man! they have got their household name of Kia Sportage, Careso, Carens, Carnival, Optima, Spectra bla bla...POTONG? 6 years ago it was Wira, Iswara, perdana...6 years later? well ok la Wira, Iswara, perdana, emm..Waja, the famous design like Juara and Sawi? gip me a break...ppl are designing the car meeting the needs at the decade, not keep asking u to buy some obseleted model!!! 
 
I am not anti potong as i owned 1 b4. But globalization is on track now and comparison makes u look competence or otherwise...condemned!! 
 
See Fu...borrow you word YAU MOU GAU&#226;&#8364;&#166;&#226;&#8364;&#166;CHOR!!! </description>

		<description>I have to agree with Prometheus, ever since I arrived back to Malaysia in Nov 2004 after spending 4 years studying abroad in Germany, I don&#039;t really see how good are the Korean cars if being compare to our own Proton and Perodua, maybe perhaps the K cars are more stylish and have more model to choose from. </description>

But i&#039;ll buy another Proton. Doesn&#039;t anybody realize, its the volume of protons sold which similarly gives you the volume of complaints..  Not so?  What say you See Fu?

		<description>SEE FU: It reminds me of Hyundai Malaysia. If I&#039;m not mistaken, they have a forum for Hyundai owners. Every car purchased will be given a username and password so that the customer can log on and have discussions and gives feedbacks. I wonder if Proton did the same or just another talk cock wan! </description>
