Hmm...At least, i try my best to drive 90km/h in Singapore HW. To keep low fuel consumption and don't wish to get any "free ticket" from TP.  :D

Hmm...look like i need to give TP your latio plate number...so, that can straight away give you some "free entry ticket" when they meet you on the road, since you always over 90km/h on Singapore road  :devil2: :devil2:

ooops! think i hv made a wrong post. haha!

It can be done. Close to half mark and it is 139km for me, my target is 150km that's all. Just have more cold start, traffic lights + short distance driving can liao. But the car is just fine, on NSH trip, same car same petrol can get >14km depend on how fast you drive. Latio FC is very much depend on your route and speed.

This car not so good for new driver if you intend to orientate him after he gets his license....cos the handbrake not within ur reach...the last time i orientate my younger brother who just got his license, I almost die of heart attack...other than shouting for him to brake...there is nothing else i can do to stop the car...also....latio accelerate is super light...compared to the lesson car he has been driving is very different...hence he tend to overstep onto the accelerate when moving off from stationary....last...our steering wheel super light....so he overturn the steering wheel with a loud bang when he turn it to the maximum very quickly and suddenly....heartache when i heard that sound.....

Thanks for sharing your experience.  You are right that the front passenger is passive and cannot stop the car for the driver.  I will make sure that we are in a super big and empty carpark when I orientate him.

One more thing, you got pump air for your tyres regularly....I realised that it really helps...I do it about once a month...think should be enough... :smile:

The 35L warning light is it in the manual or by experience?

If scared reserve is not 10L can pump once the warning light comes out, then see how many litres pumped in.
