Recently, Used Car Expert was criticised for writing about the same cars all the time. But the reason is that they are popular cars in the market. Popular means lots of supply, which makes for cheap prices and great deals. If you want to read about o... Right Car Right Price: Cars you won’t buy
Chevrolet Lacetti (2008 Apr)
Review
Relevance / rating:
“It’s a Lacetti Sport is it?” People always smirk slightly when they see the word ‘sport’ on the side of the Lacetti and I’m not really sure why. The styling of the car is not unsporting, nor is it unattractive. I... Chevrolet Lacetti

Proton GEN-2 GLS (2004 Oct)
Review

THE what? I hear you asking. Not surprising, because Proton's new five-door family hatch has just gone on sale with barely a whisper of publicity.That, says Proton, is because the first batch from Malaysia is aimed at its existing customers - the ful... Proton GEN-2 GLS

Proton well-equipped but slow (2011 Oct)
Review
Relevance / rating:
PROTON'S five-door GEN-2 has impressed me in some ways, but there are a few downsides.It makes a decent second-hand buy, with high spec and reasonable prices, along with any remaining of the power train warranty of six years or 100,000 miles.It’s a g... Proton well-equipped but slow
