Goodbye Aveo...Hello Exora..:-))
As the proud owner of a 6 years old Aveo Chevolet, I love my car to bits. It has never given me any major problems nor breakdown on me. It never strikes me to replace it until my hubby mentions it. He says once a car crosses the 5 year old mark, it's high time to get a new one but my answer is always "let me think about it first!"...
Hubby knows I love driving big cars and suggests to get an Exora (reasonably priced and looks good too) but I hardly fancy Proton cars. It's not about the price, it more of its performance. I told him I rather buy a Perodua car than a Proton. I have been checking around on other cars but not really enthusiastic about it...
Anyhow, it was finally time to decide either to get a new car or to keep my old buddy. We have shortlisted a few like Mazda2, Exora and Alza cos these are the latest models on the road...
The first car which, I've tested was the Madza2. It comes in 2 designs : sedan and hatchback. Hubby likes the hatchback but I prefer the sedan cos it suits my age and I don't like flashy and eye catching cars ;-)) After having tested the Madza2 and before I even test drove the Alza and Exora, I told my hubby perhaps I should get the Alza (with Toyota's technology). Hubby gave a fierce NOand said, "don't tell me or decide anything now before you test drive the other two cars"....hehe!
Without wasting any more time, I hurriedly fixed appointments to test drive the Alza and Exora on the same day itself. Disappointingly, I didn't feel good driving the Alza. And what surprised me was that the performance of the Exora truly captivated me. Prior to all these, I had never given the slightest consideration until I tested the car myself. The feeling of maneuvering it was superb. The interior of the car is spacious and I really loved it..
But then, do I really need a seven-seater car??? Hubby assures me that a seven-seater car doesn't mean it needs to ferry 7 persons all the time - very true indeed..haha! . He says as long as I like it, go ahead buy it and I will...:-)
Goodbye my long-time green buddy, Aveo...I'd definitely miss you..
