hey hola....

the last time i was reading up on the forum, you were hating Hondas after having spend 25,00 on some sensor.. so, ar eyou a Honda-fan again? :)

Yeah machang, atha kapuwatha honda..

To see its not bad at all. Cause a friend of mine who has a mitsubishi pajero IO had an injector problem last month and it has taken 31,000 to fix it (90octane issue). So worse things happens. My next car will either be a Xtrail or a Honda (model not decided yet) :D

Dont worry mate, ur on the right track...still curious to know why they have 2 names??!!! ;)

i think it's to do with the location of assembly and the market...opel's done in germany and vauxhall in the UK...they're both under general motors as you might already know...

another example is the vauxhall monaro and the holden monaro...virtually identical...bodies slightly differ...

Story from BBC NEWS:

A Swiss man caught speeding on a Canadian highway has blamed his actions on the absence of goats on the roads.

The man was caught driving at 161 km/h (100mph) in a 100 km/h (60mph) zone.

A traffic officer's notes said the Swiss driver had said he was taking advantage "of the ability to go faster without risking hitting a goat".

Canadian police spokesman Joel Doiron said he had never found a goat on the highways of eastern Ontario in his 20 years of service.

"Nobody's ever used the lack of goats here as an excuse for speeding," Mr Doiron told the AFP news agency.

"I've never been to Switzerland, but I guess there must be a lot of goats there," he said.

The driver was ordered to pay a fine of C$360 ($330; £175) for speeding.

Out of curiosity what is the minimum engine capacity you get on a car? There's one advertised as 660cc, I had no clue they come so small, thought 800 was the bare minimum you get on a 4 door. :D

Atleast Alto is a small car but some of those Buddy Vans also come with 650cc engines. Suzuki Every got 658cc engine and once I saw 6 passengers travelling on it at around 60kmph. :(

I think those 600cc stuff come with turbos :( If I am right, there is a race version of a suzuki with a 600cc turbo engine.
