When there’s a car which is said to be made of “Carbon fiber”, it’s enough to make a goose bump even though there isn’t any gadget or air conditional with it. Its whole concept is just for the sake of speed and lightness. Under the skin, there would mostly be a monstrous engine. On the skin, it would be a shinny badge with legendary racing pedigree. Carbon fiber is 3 times more expensive than steel, thus although the car has no air conditioner, satelite navigation, or radio, it can cost  thousands of pound. I like the concept of carbon fiber and i find it ironic because Rolls Royce was actually the first to use carbon fiber but now it turns out that they are the only luxury car which does not emphasize the use of carbon fiber and resulted in few tonnes heavier than other cars.

It’s safe and convenient when driver can be more alert on temperature outside the car, but when there’s a pro, there’s always a con.  That’s goes the same to the indicator that shows a car temperature which just turns out to be a failure. The problem is that if the indicator doesn’t show any meter or numbers, with just 2 symbolic alphabet which are “H” &”C” on the screen, driver would not be able to notice how the temperature changes.

In another words, changes in temperature is unpredictable. Any action of precaution seems impossible. The appearance of the “H” in the indicator is in fact a “warning” that is “too late”. (It’s true that even if the temperature is shown in digital number, people wouldn’t think much or care less on bothering at it because diagram from a meter is easier to comprehend than numerical impression.)

Nowadays, roads are getting creepier and more complicating than ever, sign board seems not very helpful for sometimes when driver just don’t have much time left to stop by and find their way on the board.

GPS seems to be the only remedy instead of having a good memory. One can get those GPS services in many ways such as cell phone, car shop or originated from a car. The cheapest type of GPS would be just having a simple arrow of direction and distance shown on the screen instead of mapping direction which could point out the driver’s current location and adjacent building.

The most superior type of GPS is included with voice system which is available in different type of languages.

How Often do people considered CO2 emission of a car when buying them? The answer is rare even one is vegetarian. Car with low CO2 emission is normally a collateral element which linked to fuel consumption of a car. The more aggressive of fuel consumption, the more emission produced.

In Europe country, tax from a car is based on the emission of it instead of fuel capacity, this concept encourages more people to buy cars with lower emission due to lower taxes. As a chain effect of it, car maker makes car as green as possible.  

1.     The first impression would be Elon Musk when people think of revolution in car industry. They think of Tesla but not REVA. Although both share the same source of energy (Ion-lithium), results they produced are totally different. It’s like Albert Einstein versus Alfred Noble, nuclear versus dynamite.

Unfortunately in nowadays, Tesla is still considered new and remained suspicion by majority for their reliability. People may have known more about the time for charging than its unprecedented concept; the hourly charging has always been their main topic all the time.

However, its “bad habit” for charging is not incurable; there’s a setting for which the user can choose the voltage or ampere they want, lower power takes more time but costs lesser and higher power takes lesser time but costs more.



Thus a user can monitor the charging cost through utilizing the charging time. So far, 70A/240V is the highest power for charging in less than 4 hours. It’s still not a good remedy when comparing with the time of fuel injection, but the time sounds more cheerful than charging a cell phone.

It’s true that an EV would have a better life expectancy than a fuel injected vehicle because it’s solely relying on electricity instead of combustion. The horse power of it would also be much harder to disintegrate off through years. Thus making the car ultra reliable.

In order to shorten the moment of charging into the most ideal time for which is enough to compete with the time of fuel injection, it’s a necessity that the power needs to be around 150A /240V. If not, the fact of compromising still exists.

1st May 2010 Labour Day ,it’s was a public holiday I wake up at 10 am. I had my Breakfast with my family at Restaurant Dim Sum. We had the breakfast about an hour, after that we went to grandmother house. My grandmother house located at Wangsa Maju. The distance between my house to Wangsa Maju about 25km. We reach there about 12.30pm. At the time we reached, my brother suddenly got stomached, then my parents take medicine to him. After a few hour my brother feel better then we went to Sungai Besi for dinner. About 9pm we just went back home.







Jazz’s hybrid is coming next year in Japan! Although there’s still isn’t anything heard yet other than that, the fact that it’s the cheapest hybrid Honda ever produced (1.5million yen) would still be a thriller to the car market. 

Some people may think that it’s another hot news for hybrid after civic and accord, yet it’s certainly not the latest news for Jazz to come out a hybrid version since they actually had came out once before, 3 years ago in Brazil which was using alcohol (ethanol).

The use of electricity for hybrid this time makes a different story; it may not be able to start up its engine in cold weather like the previous hybrid. Yet, a better car performance and fuel consumption would be expected from it.

Be patient for its arrival with few more years on Malaysia!




They say it’s a brand new luxurious wagon with no rivals at all. They say it’s so superior that it just not worthy to compare with a mere SUV. They say the body line and body height is made to be more “coupe” and sportier. Indeed? It’s questionable..

Many people wouldn’t agree on what “they” say. Yet, one thing for sure is that it’s spacious enough for 5 passengers, buyer wouldn’t need to care on lack of space at all. At least this German vehicle doesn’t create seats for 4.4 passengers like a normal good looking wagon does.
4 types of engine with 3 different fuel capacities are available (2.0, 3.0 & 3.2). The diesel engine has the best fuel consumption among others. Horsepower is available from 170 to 240hp, typical high performance family car with 4 wheel drive system. On average, it consumes 8.5 liters of fuel per 100 km (27.67 mpg). It can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h around 6 to 9 seconds, reaching a top speed of 222 km/h. The engine is as good as always. It’s plausible on the car performance and reliability.
Surprisingly, it doesn’t get good evaluation from car viewers. Partly is due to its dullness for the shape designing, nothing special or no surprise at all, like a higher and bigger A4 with no boots. Partly is due to high expectation from car viewers for the name of Audi.
It cost around £26k to £36k as expected from a luxury wagon, a price which an Audi would normally cost. It’s probably a primary choice for middle aged urbanize where they just hate or couldn’t afford to buy the truck size Q7.
It can be a practical wagon of all time due to its car performance, but people wouldn’t be completely besotted by its so called sportiness design.

Today is Saturday, 3rd of June. It's a sunny day, i woke up at 6.30 am, after that I jogged at my home garden for half an hour, after that i had my breakfast at 7.30 am and as usual i went to my working office. About 12pm, i took a break for lunch, i went to Kuchai Lama to buy my friend a Birthday present. After going through a long consideration, I bought a wallet.
After the Break time, I went back to work until 6pm. At night, after I finished my lunch i went to Pavillion to watch a movie at Kuala Lumpur with my friend. The movie called Percy Jackson and the Olympic Lightning Thief, this movie is fantastic and it was finished at 11pm. Before going back home, I bought a Traveling Bag for my own pleasure.
