Is it possible to do an internship....

Sensui — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 22:25:56 +0800

I usually see people doing their internships while they're still undergoing their degree program during their 3-month end of semester breaks.

Just say I have already graduated, would companies be willing to employ me for an internship?

Daihatsu Charade Aura or Perodua Kelisa?

Sensui — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 00:09:49 +0800

I like the Daihatsu Charade Aura. Its got a 1.0L engine and the design looks cool. But some people say the car is too old, parts are hard to find and expensive, not cheap to maintain and may not be reliable.

On the other hand we have the Perodua Kelisa, which is actually a rebadged Daihatsu (forgot which model). It too has a 1.0L engine. The pros for this car are that the parts are easy to find and cheap to maintain. But I don't like the fact that its a rebadged Daihatsu. I like an original Daihatsu.

Please share with me the pros and cons of both cars and which should be the better one. Keep in mind that image and brand does matter for me. I would actually prefer to take the Daihatsu assuming the cost of owning both the cars are the same and spares are equally easy to find.

On another note, is it possible to have a Daihatsu Charade Aura but all the internals (engine and others) are replaced with newer Perodua ones? Perodua supposed to be a rebadged Daihatsu right? So are the internal parts interchangeable?

Anyone here actually manage to buy a car at a really cheap price (eg below RM5k) and spend very little to bring it to decent running condition?

Please state the car and how much you bought it for and how much you spent on it to repair afterwards.

Fresh grad in need of suggestions for a car

Sensui — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 02:44:22 +0800

What is the cheapest car to get and reliable and availability of spares still alright? Budget below RM10k.

I prefer brands like Mazda, Hyundai, Daihatsu, Mitsubishi, Nissan. Brands like Proton, Perdua, Toyota and Honda are too common.

Fresh grads who have finished studies and no prior working experience will be stepping into a very different environment in the working world. Is there any advice how to prepare ourselves mentally?

Sensui — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 21:05:45 +0800

Is the Peugeot 206 a cheap car to maintain? Since they have the Naza Bestari now, does it mean cheaper and more abundant spare parts?
