V-Power : Real Performer or Over-priced Unleaded Petrol?
Fellow enthusiast Eric had questioned my choice of fuel for my spanking new Satria R3. Since some time ago, I’ve religiously fed my Persona with Shell V-Power and now my SR3. To be totally honest, I neither have substantiated evidence nor literature that V-Power actually works and warrants the premium RM1.57/litre price it enjoys over [...]
Satria R3 – 850kms and counting

Since getting my car precisely 3 days ago, I’ve done 400kms. I’m attempting to run-in the car as quickly as I can. Getting a little impatient running [...]
The Limited Edition M24 Satria R3 : First Impressions
It’s here. Finally. After more than a month’s wait. Was it worth the wait? Here it is guys. Collected my car with much butterflies in the stomach and excitement a 3-year old would demonstrate when given an ice-cream. Really cannot explain how a car can have such an effect on the full grown men. But [...]
