katabeachbum Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I think it's going to be 2012 City ,Yingluck told Ford's Alan Mulally to bugger off (my take on it) when he lobbied the government 0ver the 1.6 Fiesta. so Honda and Toyota gets to share the car cake as usual, and some left overs for Brio and March and Mazda2. City que is presently 3 months, so i will need a sales manager to supply November City To bad, Fiesta has what it takes to be a winner, except government connections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like Toyota rather skipped a few altis 1,6 sales, than letting Ford have a slice of the cake with Fiesta 1,6 japanese oligopol is back on its feet in TH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kartman Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 He's a real sucker, swears theres nothing wrong with his seats then posts photos, one of the rear not sat on looking nice and firm and one of the front looking total the opposite SSS( satin sad and sloppy). I know you can't go back now and take them when they were new to post so the cats out of the bag just accept it , we've had enough evidence don't keep posting it.

Will27 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Jeez thaicruze, now it's gotten to the stage where you're posting pictures of leather polish. <deleted>! I think you might be a little obsessed with your car. It would almost be reasonable if it was something to brag about like an Audi, Beemer or Porsche, but a run of the mill Cruze! Honestly, you sound like a 15 year old talking about a Sony Playstation. Can you post some pictures of the lube you use on the exhaust when you spend the night with it?

Yes but the dealer told him the actual retrimming cost was 20,000. I'd say he ended up with what he paid for. It does look cheap. But he's happy and he's the one who is going to live with it...
