My First Car - Proton Waja P20Y 1.6(A)

It's really been an amazing year of 2005, exactly 1 year after my graduation and 8 months since i begin my journey into the corporate world. I managed to save enough money for the downpayment for my first car. So, the excitement begin with some research online and calculate my budget before i make the decision.

The Proton Savvy in the first car that came to my attention especially i have a tight budget on selecting car. Thus, there's not much options rather than our very own Malaysian make vehicle. The long queing list of Perodua MyVi have really cut down my option. So, in a bright sunday morning, i decided to test drive some cars in Proton Edar, the pretty sales ladies just keep me going on that day, explaining all the advantages of each Proton Vehicles, they have the Savvy, Gen2, Wira and Waja. Generally speaking, i dreamt of owning a Waja when it launched in 2000, i thought the sedan car is pretty elegant. So, as the day goes on, i have test drives all the Proton cars, in the end, i'd decided to get the Waja since it's a limited edition Waja that came with the leather seats and royale burgundy color.

I got the car 2 weeks after i paid for the booking fees and got the number plate straightaway from the runner. "WNP 2177" it was and it's my user ID in IBM, sigh, i'll think of work when i drive my Waja. Overall, i'm satisfy with the car and i'm a proud owner now although there have many bad rumours about Proton.

^Cheers for our National Car^
