New Colors Available for 308THP

En. Ismik of KS Services Sdn Bhd called me up this afternoon telling me that Lunar Mist and Tauranga Blue colors are now available for 308THP, but in limited number. I chose Lunar Mist, which is more suitable for an elderly uncle [earlier, I booked for Babylon Red color]. Formerly these colors only available on 308VTi.

This is the Lunar Mist 308Vti on display during the launching...



Lunar Mist color makes the car look elegant and appear to be larger too!

Peugeot 308THP TKOs Nissan Sentra Turbo

Last Thursday around 4:30am as I was cruising at speed limits from Kuantan to Kuala Lumpur on Karak Expressway suddenly a Nissan Sentra Turbo turned on hi-beams from behind and overtook me in an unfavorable manner.

At first I was forced to follow the car from a comfortable distance while sustaining the same speeds without any intention to cucuk - just to observe and record the drivers behavior, his skill as well as the raw power/handling of his car. Admittedly the car looks powerful on the straight/level part of the Expressway until the last long ascend before Genting Sempah Tunnel where it began to lose power.

Could it be due to mismatch between the gearbox and the engine torque curve... or the driver picked the wrong gear?

The Nissan Sentra Turbo with big wheels/tyres, big exhaust box/tailpipe which made lots of big noise was Technically Knocked Out (TKO) by a fully laden stock Peugeot 308 THP (carrying 4 adults including the driver).
