I've heard that the 2022 version of the 408 is priced at around 70,000. Does anyone know where to find it? Is it worth it? Can any experts share some insights in the comments? [Masichun's Smile]

When you slow down to stop, and the RPM suddenly goes up to around 2000 before dropping, it could be related to the transmission downshifting or the engine management system adjusting for some reason. As for the brakes feeling a bit soft, you might want to check the brake fluid level or have the brake system inspected for air or leaks. If anyone has more insights, please share. Thanks!

I've heard that HiPhi only has three months left for a revival period. Does anyone have any insights? Although HiPhi cars are average (or rather bad) and the pricing is quite ordinary, the design is really cool! [laughing]

You're considering buying a 2009 automatic Kia Sportage, which was purchased in 2022 in excellent condition for over 40,000. Now, you plan to offer around 13,000 for it. Is it worth buying?

With a budget of around 100, you are looking for a 992s with four-wheel drive, in white with a red interior or in silver. At this price range, you might be able to find a used car in decent condition. The exact condition will depend on factors such as mileage, year of manufacture, and maintenance history. It's recommended to check the service record and perhaps get a professional inspection before purchasing to ensure the car's quality.

Hello everyone, is the original dashcam of Xpeng any good? Is it worth the 1200? If anyone knows, please share some insights. Thanks!

I’ll share my personal test drive impressions of various SUVs in the same price range. Can anyone explain the difference in chassis feel between the GV70 Flagship and Luxury models? If there's someone who has driven both, please provide detailed insights! I've also tried SUVs of the same class like BBA, Volvo, and Jaguar. Personally, I think the new GLC has the best overall chassis quality, with Genesis coming in second. Genesis has the best sound insulation! The throttle response is the worst on the GLC! The X3, Q5, Genesis, Volvo, and Jaguar feel quite similar. Subjectively, the GV70 ranks in the top two for overall comfort and drivability. PS: The Q5 feels more filtered and softer. The X3 is a bit too ground-hugging and follows the road surface too much, which I don't like. Volvo is in the middle, but it has the worst sound insulation in its class! The GLC's chassis quality is great with a solid, integrated feel, but the throttle response is really lacking! The Jaguar F-Pace has a slightly firmer chassis and a more sporty driving feel, but its downside is average noise control with some resonance, and it has the smallest rear space. Genesis offers the best overall driving experience. Even with 21-inch wheels, the suspension is really excellent, and the power delivery is smooth and responsive. The space is similar to the X3.

I want to buy an Alto, should I go for a manual or automatic transmission? Locally, there's a 2013 model that's priced around 13,000 and has run about 80,000-90,000 kilometers. Is it worth buying if it's a manual transmission?

I'm planning to buy a Panamera soon. Initially, I was considering a regular Panamera with options totaling around 140. But I recently discovered that the new Active Ride can only be selected on the e-Hybrid, which is about 16 more expensive even if I forgo some options. Can any owners share whether the Active Ride feature is worth the money? Is it cost-effective?

Since this is our first family car, we decided to go with a petrol vehicle that’s suitable for both city driving and long trips. After trying out and comparing many cars — Korean, Japanese, and even some Chinese hybrids — we finally chose the 2025 Changan Eado High-Energy Edition. Honestly, the first thing that made me choose it was the design — I really liked how the car looks, and the color matched my personal taste perfectly. The second reason was the engine — the 1.5L turbo is more than enough for highway driving. Even though it's a small engine, it delivers excellent power on the road, and at the same time, it’s fuel-efficient in the city — unlike a 2.0L that would consume more. The third and most important reason was the price — I see it as an excellent deal. I ended up with a good-looking car that’s packed with features. As for daily use, both my wife and I are new drivers, so having 360° cameras was a huge plus — it helped us a lot with parking and narrow roads. Honestly, without them, we wouldn’t have dared to enter many places. The car's performance is solid, acceleration is great, and just a slight push on the gas gets it moving quickly. The space is also impressive — three people can sit comfortably in the back, and the trunk has enough room for travel and groceries when we return from family visits. The smart features are also really helpful — I can use voice commands to control the A/C, start navigation, or play music without taking my hands off the steering wheel. On top of that, the car has a built-in dashcam that records continuously. Just insert a memory card and it overwrites old footage automatically. Exporting videos is easy too. In short, for around AED 70,000, I got a car that meets all my needs and protects me from the heat and the rain. It’s been an excellent experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a practical and affordable car.

I bought the 2025 Passat 380 Star Edition, and since we already have a 2024 330 Elite model at home, I was able to directly compare the two. The main differences come down to a few added features — like extra millimeter-wave radars, one additional camera, and three more ultrasonic sensors. Most of the other specs are nearly identical. The biggest improvement I noticed is in the adaptive cruise control, which is now more responsive and accurate. The rear parking sensors also trigger more easily. Fuel consumption is actually quite good: on highways and elevated roads, it averages around 7.1 L/100 km — nearly the same as the 330 (which ranges between 6.8 to 7.2 L). As for space, it's one of the main reasons I chose this car. We’ve got kids in the family, and this car is mainly for weekend outings and family use. Compared to the Magotan, the Passat offers better ride comfort, and its 2.87m wheelbase ensures a roomy interior. Feature-wise, the Passat covers everything needed for daily use: side mirrors that tilt automatically when reversing, ventilated and heated seats, auto hold, adaptive cruise, and active braking. It’s all there and makes daily driving much more convenient. Now for the downsides: the infotainment system feels outdated. The screen is too small, there's no built-in navigation worth using, and no wireless phone connectivity, which is a letdown in 2025. Also, there’s still a bit of jerkiness at low speeds that hasn’t been addressed. The gear shifter is still wrapped in leather but looks pretty basic. Overall, at this price point, the Passat is still a solid choice. It doesn’t have any major flaws, and it’s a good all-around car — perfect for someone who wants a reliable, practical ride without too much fuss or flash. Not the flashiest design, but definitely a sensible and balanced option.
