The original CKD 206 with smaller peugeot wording and repeated small and large lion emblems at he rear.
First of all i used a tape to mark up where the Peugeot word goin to be.. and also to make sure i didnt mess it up when put the logo and ended up the logo is uneven or slanding at one side
Check out the size differences of the CBU and CKD Peugeot emblems. Its comes with pre-stick double-sided stikers

Then at the Go-kart, Pumbaah also telling me it was in the newspaper. But since we are having the go-karting events, i didnt managed to get a copy myself. But luckily at was available for download from Peugeot site here
Now lets go to the interview part, i was interviewed by Syah from the CBT, and it was done at the Steven's corner at Setapak.. 'TT interview session' la lol. Basically we talk about what do i like about the car, and how does it felt, the handling. performances etc. In the artical he mention about the 'me demonstrate the sharp U-turn' well lol i guess it was when i was making a fast U-turn on the way back after the interview session. And about the modifications.. i guess those who followed my blog before will know that i am looking for a new set of bigger n nicer rims.. which till today still failed to do so haha oh well.
By the way it was nice for them to mention the my206club blog tho.. kinda promote it abit haha. Well in the end it was just a simple interview for the Peugeot Vision fo the testimonial section. so, Andy.. stop calling me star of 206 lol...

After been waiting for almost 2 weeks.. finally the day had arrived!... Go Karting!... Started my journey to Subang Parade and met with Andy there, then convoy to the Shah Alam and reaches there around 1.40pm.
Seems like we are the only 2 that just arrived... or maybe not.. seems like Pumbaah had been there even much more earlier!.. and from what i can see, he is getting very excited about it haha..
Later, Terry arrived followed by Koinmove and Ethan, got our info registered and still waiting for Xloader and Joe.. Finally around 2.30pm all had arrived and the fun begins!
For the whole racing session/events i was actually quite confused.. one i started into the track i saw a few kart infront of me.. after overtaking them on the first lap i couldnt see anyone, anymore.. the kart vibrate really bad too, the steering is very heavy, but the fun thing is at the corners where you can actually drift on it! LoL
Frankly speaking i only driven a kart before once in my life.. and that ways more than 10 years ago, so this time it is kinda new for me.. a noob i would say. Thats why i been goin into the pit and every 2 laps lol..becoz i tought it is over.. and at one time i did even ram into a tyre of a stationary kart infront of me because i was getting confused.
After the first session ended which is around 10mins, we drove back to the pit and waited for the next turn. Around 20mins later its our turn again and this time we were joined by others group.
And this time i manage to get some idea on who to actually drive it fast n hard lol... however after a fews lap it started to rain and it is damn hard to control the kart. At first i was following a 2 seater kart and when i was about to overtake them at a corners suddenly they spin and luckily i managed to take the left side and get out of it, then around half of the lap, its really raining alot and i also actually spin the kart too... wow..it was scary yet fun lol... no longer after that i also saw Andy spin his kart LoL... having a slick tyre on a wet road is really difference feeling.. the steering doesnt respond so good.. infact as Pumbaah said, when he turn the steering but the kart still moving in a straight line!.. taking corners also a challanging, you will bound to oversteer, drift at almost 99% rate if you are goin fast.
Overall it is a very fun experiance, and after that we went for an actually TT. which really had teh tarik lol..

Then I've been to Volcare too located at the Jln Ulu Kelang along the MRR2, altho thier service is good in the sense of friendliness but they are lack of equipment and experiance staff... a normal service or oil change is ok.. but others might had some trouble.. and by the way they are using Total engine oil.. so i would recommanded for an oil change there if you like. But they also fail to rectify the steering problems.
Enterance to the building
It was when i was there to for the 308GT test drive time, I get to met the new Head of Department of the Peugeot Service Operation Divisions, After Sales. Mr. Hin.
At first look, he does remind me of my uncle (Alvan's Dad which is also a Technician). He was friendly and really care for the cars owner, infact he came to me and told me about how to take good care of my car. He even offered me to do some 'magic' & 'protection' on my car! But since it was on saturday which means halfday operating. So i booked for monday to had it done.
One of the Servicing area
Mr.Hin came to me personally and explain whats he goin to do with my car, first he goin to add some protection cover and seal up the gearbox flaws which is quite fame with water goin in problems.. which only happens in Malaysia..? Next he goin to do some grounding on my cars electrical wiring. All is kinda alien to me as i am not much a petrolhead.. (which in my defination still learning to walk). One good thing is Mr. Hin love to use resemblen wording instead of technical word which makes us understand more easily.
On the sametime someone from NZ Galaxy also arrived and took all my doors panel away for redoing all the screws and nuts. (Thanks to 'someone' from the Marketing department which attend to me when i told him the problems of loose screw inside the door panel which makes a clicking sound)
Around 12pm the servicing bay is closed for lunch. On the sametimes Mr.Hin also often came to talk to me about some car care tips, maintaining tips and so on.

Again waited for awhile and Mr.Hin came to talk with me and another customer. And he kept telling me they are on it now doin the steering shaft.
Waiting area
However there is some tips tho. to get things done smoothly
1. Be cool, yes you might lost it especially all the problems you facing before kept coming up and seems like no one care or no one can solved it.. still be cool..
2. Talk to the right person, dont bark at the wrong tree.
3. Make sure you clarify your problems with as much details as possible as it will be much more easier and faster for them to check n detect fault. Eg. when does it happen? how does it happen? what kind of symptoms and cause that you think it might contribute to the fault (modification)? etc etc.
4. Be patients.
The best is if you can talk with Mr.Hin personally and he will be more than happy to help you, to bless your car. Just a piece of advise tho, dont try to act smart, dont lose your coolness, be humble and surely enough you wont had any problems communicate with him.. and when both of you in in the right track i am sure all your problems will be solve. Let him do his thing, let him bless your car.. and you will enjoy it for the rest of your life.
Those who met Mr.Hin and actually spoken with him before will know what i meant.. so good luck :)
