[QUOTE="aoch88, post: 542695, member: 8491"] Actually my car is considered alright (UK specs) but some of the things which I'm not quite happy about: 1. I cannot check the service record and I bet the mileage must be really high. 2. Undercarriage, disc brakes, etc are corroded. There's nothing much we can do except replacing them. 3. The AP holder (car dealer) is not very honest. Promise this and that but end up otherwise. I am pretty sure they didn't service the car at all before handing over to me. No after sales service, I can't complain or go back to AB, etc. I'm on my own. 4. Despite being a 2007 car which is considered quite new, there are quite a number of things to be changed, my IBS sensor went dead on the first month of ownership, absorbers are producing sound (maybe springs) due to stagnant position like stuck in the port or God knows where for some time? Maybe they swapped parts before putting it in the showroom? With a local CKD car it's easier to tell and most importantly, it's normally better maintained. At least service records and warranty is there. Just my 2 cents :) [/QUOTE]
