[QUOTE="riggy, post: 533832, member: 5465"] Hi, been a long while since I posted on a forum pertaining to the R3. Shaunchen, sorry to hear of your predicament(s) as regards the r3. While my own ownership of my wira has been pretty spotless, this isnt a good sign for proton if a supposedly 'hand assembled' or bespoke special performs in such a way. What should be done by RACERALLYRESEARCH then? Its like me reading the local edition of EVO (didnt read the UK edition on this), where Rowan Atkinson wrote about MG-Rover's bespoke sports car, mentioning about Aston Martin in the 1980s, where it is the CUSTOMER who becomes the test drivers for the company. Ahhh..buy an aston, get tons of glitches, tell the factory, they'll bring it up in the meeting, slap together something,...give the customer a fixit..hopefully it stays fine. But we note that this happened in the 1980s..not 2005, look what happened to the company MG Rover now...i wonder if Rowan Atkinson regretted the purchase now that Rover bit the dust. But then again, mR Atkinson is filthy rich...whats fifty thousand quid to him. Might i suggest that all R3 staff do a proper shakedown in each and every unit? Not the usual 'LULUS' but a more thorough check. Preproduction was basically screwed by the suppliers (like the CF spoiler incident) and checking during production isnt being properly done. The r3 is supposedly a bespoke performance car..surely r3 staff (aside from those we hear on this forum - maybe its those grease 'monkeys' - maybe if you gave em more respect they might do a better job, some of them also know how to log on the internet or have friends -while 'grease monkeys' is a phrase commonly used, them monkeys sometimes have feelings too) can have more pride in their work? I may have to suggest that Adian, Faisal and even the head of R3 do the QC checking. Maybe not for this r3 satria, but the next. [/QUOTE]
