Hi Cyue, just talked to gordon, time fixed, 2:30pm in the afternoon. by wed latest, all test drives would have been done. A good news is , I just find out the jeep my wife likes is the Sorento, and it wont be available until next summer. Dont think she would be interested in any current...

I think Joe had earlier posted a picture showing the damage caused to the head by lean burn. Worth looking.

You guys buying cheap tires should make sure you buy from a reliable source. In HK, some very cheap goodyear and michellin are being offered. These cheap tires are made in Thailand. They do have the same look/pattern as those made in euro, but dont offer the same performance. Dont think they...

The MK Is are fitted with 15" OZ wheels, offer a better look than the 16" wheels from dont know who in Mk IIs. besides, only Mk IIs that were made in late 2002 were fitted with ESP.

Good morning, young man. Didnt expect to read your post so early. My boss is now having a long meeting, so I can have a few good minutes for doing something really interesting. Will gvie Gordon a call later this morning to fix a time for the test drive. After that, will visit the opel...

"2.0L laguna is lacking a little". I told u so, didnt I? But then be fair, it produces quite good low end torque and is more responsive than the 307. For family cars, like the new megane, bhp is not that important. Driveability (at low rev, mind you), running cost are the keys to success...

I think Ben is busy working on his assignments from last term. haha. Will be damn busy this weekend (test drive the JTS on Sat, my son has invited over 20 kids home this Sun, not too much time left to prepare myself for a LegCo hearing to be held on Mon), otherwise, can go out with you...

Welcome to the water ingress family.

Mike was talking about ABS light, not airbag light. Nothing to do with the wiring under the seat. maybe brake fluid.

Who says japanese cars lack style?

The nissan gearbox is not the problem. The problem is fixing it to a car that is not suitable. Their failed to choose a right ratio that match the character of the engine.

From what I read, I have the feeling that the guys at the HK Alfa club are quite different from the old school alfistis. They care the look/image more than the performance and handling. Stupid comments can be found frequently, for example many of them agreed that modifications were no good...

I am not an official member of the alfa club. Dont think those who prefer to drive safely and respect everyone on the road would welcome me; but should have no problem to download those comments for ya. Getting an interesting summer job is always difficult. Wish you luck. Tony

Thats why you need to introduce some competition. This will make them realise they have to provide customer service. On the other hand, I fully agree with you that many ppl in Hong Kong know nothing about cars, they care more about 4-leg animal, and make unreasonable demand. My wife once...

wiring problem in alfa is nothing new. Wilman pointed it out to me few years ago, that in many cases, Alfa was using second quality wire. The isolation layer was not thick enough to withstand the heat, and melted. I am not 100% sure, but modern alfa should have adopted multiplexing. This...

Hi, Cyue, Gordon called me this afternoon. We talked for some 30 minutes. He said he would send me some JTS info and also arrange a test drive this Sat. Looking forward to that. BTW, how long will you stay in HK this time? Tony

They are made in Korea, right?

hi cyue, i know how you feel. Thats why I always keep PC link to the Internet while I am in the office. Still waiting for Eddies call. Seems that he is not too enthusiastic about the whole thing. Talking about customer services. Lets be more realistic, unlike toyota/honda, reno/alfa...

147 GTA is not yet available. Not even in the UK. The one you saw, may be the 2.0 model. BTW, the is an alfa owner site in HK. ppl there prefer driving "with good care and responsibility" (that what they said). A a few days ago, they were complaining against Kingsway, saying that its...

Cyue, welcome home. I also met a silver 172 in Happy Valley yestersday afternoon. Waited for him at the traffic light, but he was rather shy and didnt come next to me. Dont know who he was. Ben, agree with you that pricing the new Megane will be vy difficult. I suggest you to stop...

The last time I test drove 156, the car was fitted with a manual, not selespeed. Not sure if I can acheive a smooth change. Anyway, am looking forward for a test drive.

Cyue, will let you have my feedback asap. Tony

Ben, I prefer the estate more, too. However, for reasons unknown to me, your ppl are more keen to sell me the saloon than the estate. David gives me a call on a daily basis after Ivans contract. I told him to give me a few weeks to consider and shop around. There is a chance that I will...
