El Volkswagen Tiguan acumula ya 100.000 pedidos.

Desde Autoblog dan a conocer que los pedidos acumulados desde el lanzamiento del Volkswagen Tiguan llegan ya a las 100.000 unidades desde su lanzamiento hace pocos meses, tal vez no impresione la cantidad, ¿pero si la comparamos por ejemplo con una ciudad española como Cáceres con unos escasos 90.802 habitantes? es cuando ya da que pensar.

New Proton Saga Blm

Esta claro que el fabricante bávaro debe estar estrujandole la cabeza a sus ingenieros para lograr cumplir con los plazos razonables de entrega, por que hoy por hoy, estos no se se están cumpliendo, ya que como mínimo si quieres hacerte con un Tiguan tendrás que esperar como mínimo unos 5 meses. Esta por ver si al final lo que se percibía como un éxito para la marca y una seria competencia para el resto de las marcas, acabará transformándose en un fracaso tapado que origine la perdida de cuantiosas ventas en favor de otros modelos como el Mercedes Glk, el Ford Kouga y el resto de los que ya están o de próximo lanzamiento, a pesar de que en algunos casos muchos de estos modelos no se acerquen al nivel tecnológico y de representación del Tiguan.

El mejor ejemplo es este comentario escrito en Febrero de un usuario (muy hoygan) de ForoCoches, que resume de buena manera lo que está pasando por la cabeza de algunos compradores del Tiguan:

Tengo un tiguan +motion pedido desde el 16 de noviembre.Hace mas o menos un mes me llamo el comercial diciendome ke tenia buenas noticias,me dijo ke habian metido mi tiguan en el primer pakete de pedidos o algo de eso y ke me llegaria en marzo, como mucho en abril.Esta mañana me ha vuelto a llamar diciendome ke la volkswagen tiene problemas con los plazos de entrega, ke no dan abasto y ke me olvide de marzo o abril ke me puede llegar hasta en septiembre!!!, me ha dado 2 opciones, esperar o devolverme la señal(5890euros).Me niego a esperar tanto asike me he planteado el tema de importacion o comprarme otro suv.El lunes me llego al conce haber lo ke puedo hacer y ya me decido.Hay alguien ke tenga pedido el coche desde noviembre y le hayan dicho lo mismo???,entiendo ke los plazos de entrega para el ke vaya a pedir el coche ahora sean largos pero yo hace ya 2meses ke lo pedi y me parece una burrada tener ke esperar tanto tiempo habiendome dicho desde un principio ke llegaba en abrilmas o menos.

El resto de las entradas tampoco tienen desperdicio.

More To Come?

We all know GM is about to (ed note: pick one before publication*):

  1. Throw HUMMER on fire
  2. Flush the toilet on HUMMER
  3. Force HUMMER to walk the Purple Valley
  4. Shitcan HUMMER because, after all, jaysus!

But in recent news could it be that GM is also considering axing another brand? Or brands?

We got an exclusively made-up interview with GM spokesman Tony Cervone who replied, "We are absolutely not considering canning Pontiac and Buick. Or, man, Saab. Did you see those Saab numbers? Kkkkkeeerist! And just because I dropped a bucket of pink slips a minute ago means nothing." A follow-up question yielded no movement on getting us Alison Krauss's phone number. GM's PR department is so letting us down.

Matriculas con sentido racista son retiradas de Arkansas

New Proton Saga Blm

Estados Unidos es uno de los muchos países que está luchando para eliminar paulatinamente el racismo en su sociedad sin embargo está es una ideología que se mantiene en varios estratos sociales.

Y recientemente el estado de Arkansas ha empezado a retirar un centenar de matriculas que resultaban ofensivas para muchos ciudadanos pues tenían la combinación de letras NGR en la serie.

Esta serie se traducía como un mensaje de antagonismo contra las personas de color, por esa razón la Oficina de Vehículos Motorizados decidió no emitir más las matriculas cuestionadas para mantener la tranquilidad en la población.

Terengganu Perdana V6 maintenance handled by drivers and superior officers

New Proton Saga Blm

Terengganu State Secretary Datuk Mokhtar Nong said the maintenance aspects of the state’s Proton Perdana V6 Executive fleet was handled by the car’s drivers or their superior officers and that the state paid for the maintenance based on “claims”. Each state exco has two drivers - one is a permanent employee of the state and the other is appointed on a contract basis by the exco himself.

The MBs of Pahang and Kelantan have come to defense of Datuk Ahmad Said’s claims that the Perdana V6 was expensive to maintain. Pahang MB Datuk Adnan Yaakob claimed his Mercedes-Benz incurred a cost of RM42,000 in 2007, while his state exco’s Perdana incurred a cost of RM57,500.

The Terengganu government has also corrected the figures published yesterday. They admit that they made a mistake with Idris Jusoh’s car. The following are the new figures:

  • Idris Jusoh’s car from 2004 to 2008 - RM131,449.83
  • Idris Jusoh’s car cost in first two months of 2008 - RM27.923.41
  • Most expensive car to maintain - Toh Chin Yaw’s car - RM175,229.79
  • Total bills for all cars over the past 4 years - RM1,071,668.82

One of the car workshops appointed by the state government to maintain the fleet of Perdanas is AMBL Services. AMBL Services is one of the lucky four workshops appointed to maintain the Terengganu state fleet. The other three workshops are Pusat Servis EON, Tenaga Setia Service Sdn Bhd, and Pusat Servis Ranaco.

AMBL owner Nazri Omar admitted in an interview with Bernama that he charged the government 25% more than what he would usually charge his other customers because the state government pays the workshop 1 or 2 months late. This is contrary to Datuk Mokhtar Nong’s claims that payment is made within 2 weeks of receiving service orders.

Nazri also added that it typically costs RM8,301 (this figure is already marked up 25%) to change a gearbox of the Perdana V6. Another unnamed workshop owner said that a recond gearbox could be used for about RM3,000. Nazri also added that if repair costs exceed RM12,000 the workshop would have to wait for the Public Works Department approval (who was the previous Works Minister again?).

Based on these workshop’s quotes we can assume that the cost to replace a Perdana V6’s gearbox should be under RM10,000. However Selangor State exco Ronnie Liu’s Perdana V6’s gearbox was changed at a cost of RM23,000 two weeks ago. Why such a huge discrepancy between the numbers? Are there cases of bocor in other states as well?

Other state governments are already considering emulating Terengganu’s “cost-cutting” exercise. The Selangor state government is now considering the Toyota Camry for its state excos. Ronnie Liu said the proposal for the Camry is not in their interest but it is because the excos need a safe car to “travel all over the place”. Yeah right, like the rest of us do not, but we have to live with what we have. I’d like to see you people take the public transport system for one month, then we’ll see some real action to improve the system.

UPDATE: According to The Star, the Prime Minister has given the go ahead to the Terengganu state government to use the Mercedes-Benz E200K as its state exco cars.

New Proton MPV Model
are rumors circulating in forums and blog about the new MPV(multi purpose vehicle)model from Proton. Lot of pictures found, but which one is true? Is this really "gambar model baru proton MPV?". Well, you judge it. It does not look like a photoshop picture to me. If you have a look at the photos, you will see that the interior features the Toyota Wish dashboard, but it has a Proton steering wheel. The interior seems to have a bad fit and finish - weird gaps here and there very

Part 4: RHB Islamic Loan Approved
On 18/02/2008, my RHB Islamic loan been approved. Bank did fax the LOU to the original sales person (guy). Then I call this gurl to inform that bank already fax the documents. She told me that they didn?t received it. So I faxed again to them.

Part 3: Pushing me around (Very Annoying)
After few days I mention to her that I want to look for my own car loan, she did gave me call few times asking when the loan approved, and submit LOU from bank to her. She did mention that if her manage and arrange my loan, surely the loan will get approved faster cause she want to push the car for me ASAP. *my question: when we pay the booking fee, are we supposed to be queue? Why must wait the loan to be approved then get queue? In fact, I booked the car with RM500 bukan with AIR LIUR.

Part 2: Cancel their panel bank (CIMB) and take RHB Islamic
On sunday, I already ask my friend at RHB Islamic about their interest rate, and found out that their rate is lower than CIMB that sales person offered and told me that their rate is lowest on market. So, on monday I gave the sales person a call and asking for booking fee receipt and car sales purchase order. I did mention that I want to find my own car loan to her. Then she fax me the booking fee receipt and car sales purchase order. After I received all the fax document, I realised that the

Proton Saga BLM - A New Saga Begins
Today after work, i went to test drive Proton Saga BLM at the The Curve. The exterior design and interior is nice but a very great dissapointment when it come to the engine performance. The engine is very noisy when i try to speed up and moreover when i try to accelerate, it take about few second to speed up, in short the pick up are very slow. Maybe I am not use to drive saloon car or maybe the engine of 1.3cc is not powerful enough for such a big car. At least minimum it require 1.5cc. Th

Proton Saga: 23,000 bookings, 5 month wait!
Bookings for the new Proton Saga ?mark II? has reached a total of over 23,000 and the waiting period for delivery is now between 5 to 6 months. This is another sales success for Proton, right after the Proton Persona, which just goes to show that if the right car is produced for the right market and at the right price (something which Proton enjoys in our market), cars will fly off the shelves. Of this 23,000, over 9,000 units were from EON outlets, and EON?s recent EON Karnival 2008 in Sha

My personal thoughts on the new Proton Saga
The new Proton Saga (then code-named Proton BLM) is such a hot topic - that if you have not heard or seen it, you?d probably have not been aware of its launching recently.  I went to Carrefour Kepong today and was surprised to see one on display in the shopping mall.  There was no salesman there - but I could just take a peep into the car & also to see the exterior from my own eyes.  Hmmm? it looks nice & sturdy. Proton claimed that the new Proton Saga is built on the same platform as

The previous Proton Saga advertisement posted here featuring our Angkasawan received some interesting feedback. Here is another Proton Saga advertisement video, this time featuring David Arumugam of the Alleycats.
