A knight in shining armor is a man who has never had his metal truly tested. Likewise, a pristine looking car is a car that hasn’t been driven much. While the former may be an inspirational phrase, the latter is a sign of a good used car. When shopping for a used car, it is normal to see dings, scratches, or the occasional putty. Small damages are good for bargaining, but a used car with major damage is much better avoided. Whether or not to go on with the purchase is entirely up to you. This en

In the video, the person holding the camera was focussed on the burning car that the fire brigade was already working put out. But “auntie” unwittingly caught the accident between 2 Perodua Myvis

A common excuse for buying an SUV would be the added safety in the event of a crash. SUVs are bigger and thus we instinctively associate them with strength. And there is some truth to that. In the event of a collision of two cars, it is usually much better to be in the bigger car. But SUVs are also associated with higher centres of gravity and they generally rollover much easier. So, if safety is your main concern, should you get an SUV or a sedan? It depends. To be fair, we’ll be looking at an
