The only reason that Protons sell in Malaysia is because it’s one of the cheapest cars you can buy. That’s why you hardly see any protons outside of Malaysia. 
 

The only slightly decent proton is the X70 which is a Chinese made car.

I’ve already ordered a Haval H6 PHEV. All reviews thus far gave it high marks. Much better specced than anything else available at the moment, could well be the best value car of the year. Reliability record seems good.

I have tried to get the price for the H6 PHEV a few times, via LINE and at a mini motor show a couple of months ago.
Asked again today as GWM had the Jolion HEV and H6 HEV  on show at the local mall but the rep said price will only be revealed on 7/8th October .

 

Do you know ??

 

( serious question as I am interested in a PHEV )

I have a very gay neighbour who washes his MG car every other day and pops out the sunroof to clean the roof and it winds me up so much and he has all the British made stickers all over it.

For this reason I hate the MG even more than I should.

Apart from that it's probably OK but I always feel that these sort of cars have a very low deposit to get them out the showroom otherwise why else would people purchase them?

He's lucky gays only by MGs.  His reputation is in tack.

 

Very gay, as opposed to a little bit pregnant.

Thanks for quoting, I really should un-ignore some folks, as probably missing a good chuckle now & then.

According to GWM, price will be announced on October 7 at 6 pm, on their website presumably.

Who all have factories in China.

Isuzu make very high quality cars. Japanese brand.

I remember sitting in an Isuzu once in a grab, probably the worst car I’ve sat in, in terms of smoothness, actually MG might have been worse overall in terms of smoothness because they’re cars versus trucks. Old Toyota taxis ride better.

This one is built in China

Here what a longtime well known uk motoring journalist had to say

MG ZS EV Review 2022

Nothing else beats it in terms of value for money. 273-mile range on the latest models. Practical and surprisingly well-finished interior.

Yes, same as Fortuner, which is a nice comfy ride.  Would expect the MU-X to be about the same.  Latest generation a collaboration with GM.  But yes, still a truck 'platform' SUV.

 

Would think rare, but not a stretch for GRAB driver to use, as we got picked up once in a Fortuner, and was a very pleasant surprise.

was a pickup truck Isuzu, not sure the model, back door wasn't very big so wasn't a full sized pickup truck, not much space in the back 

I googled isuzu pickups and just briefly looking assuming it was a d-max because the backdoor is quite small on those.

Basically your comparison based on going in a pickup once,  is worthless, then.

I can't help wondering what the difference between gay and very gay is? 

 

Does buying an MG make you gay or very gay?

 

Does it depend on the colour?  I've never seen a pink MG.

 

Perhaps it has to have a pop-out sunroof? or BRiT badges?

 

Apparently, I'm a lesbian, I know I'm a lesbian because I met a girl in a bar last night and she told me she sleeps with women which makes her a lesbian, QED I must be a lesbian because I do that too.

Avoiding buying chinese cars is very easy !

so even when they have choice people do the wrong choice and then later complain that they are doggies of china hahahaha

so funny

 

 

 

Claiming that views conflicting yours are 'funny', 'laughable', 'hahaha', in no way gives credence to your narrative.

Try another strategy, might work well for you...
