WTI’m sick of this rebadging.
So, why can’t we rebadge Proton as Lotus or vice versa?
eg, Lotus sedan = Proton Persona!
Just My 20sen…
----
err...
Because no one would buy a 300k proton? Or Lotus wont be caught dead with a Proton with a Lotus badge on?

FWIW, the Insignia seems to be a fairly decent car in reviews. Maybe I&#039;ll try to pick up a Insignia or Mondeo rental next time i&#039;m at Europe...I&#039;m usually stuck with the standard fair 307...</description>

		<description>Paul

Why are the images so dark?  I have to manually copy them into an image viewer program and adjust brightness, gamma settings etc before I can clearly see them.   Maybe they are copyrighted images and you are not allowed to tamper.  But still, it is a hassle.  I stop viewing them after the third pictures.

&lt;strong&gt;Paul Tan says: GM&#039;s photos were that way. I&#039;ve made them a little brighter now.&lt;/strong&gt;</description>
