Mercedes Benz service centre

Sent my car for service a couple of weeks ago. The location was spotless clean.


The best is the service you get while waiting. There's food galore! I guess that's why is so expensive!

Boys' road trip to Johor Bharu for a friend's wedding - his second!

A boys' car trip to JB for a wedding of our common friend Firdaus - his second wedding. Before the trip, the obligatory breakfast selfie.


This is our vehicle for the trip - a Jaguar.


Based on the computer, it will take us only 3 hours and 20 minutes to JB (average speed of 97.5 km/h). However, that estimate is about to change drastically once we were out of the city traffic.


Yours truly sitting like a boss.


We actually shaved off 1 hour off the original estimate. by 12:30 pm, we were already at the wedding venue.


Very classy.




Here comes the newlyweds.



Firdaus and his new wife.






After the end of the event we decided on our options for the rest of the day.



We decided to stop at JPO for a spot of shopping.



These sets of photos were taken by my friends.










We are actually traveling at over 200 km/h!!




Congratulations!!!

My wishlist of the best super sexy sports cars in the world

While surfing the net you get to see a lot of "Top 10" lists by many people. I have never bothered to do one but today I'll make an exception.

As you know I am an avid watch collector and anything to do with horology. Unknown to most people, I like cars too, especially sports car. Although the idea of the maintenance requirements scares me, just to look at one gets my heart pumping.

Of all the current sports cars available in the market today, this is my TOP Eight. I have arranged them from the most to the least desirable.

Ferrari LaFerrari

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4

Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport

Ferrari F12 Berlinetta

McLaren P1

Porsche 918 Spyder

Ferrari FF

McLaren 650S

When I was young, I wanted to own sports cars. However, considering the huge operating budget needed to keep them in tip-top condition, I guess my bucket list will be to rent each and everyone of them (if possible) for a couple of days for the experience.

Collecting my new car at Nissan's New Car Collection Centre

Big day. Time to collect my new car. At noon arrived at the Nissan's New Car Collection Centre in PJ. In a special showroom fully air-conditioned and mirror walls on three sides (the fourth side is a sliding door leading towards the road), all the cars waiting for delivery to their new owners wait patiently.

The day I took my car, there were two other cars to be delivered on the same day and all in white. 


The customary inspection of the car as well as the confirmation of the chassis and engine numbers. The explanation of the various gadgetry in the car took some time though.


Final shot before we drive out of the showroom floor and the value of the car drops by 30%. The salesman wanted this picture for this trophy..... :-P

Driving my Naza Ria for the last time...

Today is the day. The day I deliver the Naza Ria who has served my family since 2007 to its new owner. The odometer reads 175,303 km/h. There is still a lot of distance left on this old lady. I hope you be of good service to whoever gets you next.

So long and thank you.

Goodbye Naza Ria, you have been a loyal servant for the last 7 years

It is sad to let go but sometimes it is something that needs to be done. My old second-hand Naza Ria which I bought back in 2007 is going to a new home.

Some last pictures with the family...


The bulk of the children's lives evolve around this car.


Took this car to a lot of interesting places during out "Cuti-cuti Malaysia" phase.


Manufactured in 2003 in South Korea, this CBU unit was re-badged by Naza.


We shall miss you.
