For all drivers out there! Ever wonder that you might need a special design shoes for driving?!
This is it! Porsche design moccasins black leather shoes.
Take this quote:
When driving a car, the right foot works in a different way than the left one. The quality that more than anything else makes this shoe unique, is the exclusive projection of the soles, designed with different profiles in order to optimize the use of pedals during driving. The right sole has a series of splines (stabilizing element) to improve the hold on the pedals and to enable a faster passing of the foot from the gas pedal to the brake, ensuring an optimum support to the heel.
Isn’t it a bit too much?! Driving porsche car, wearing porsche shoes… “posh” everywhere…

Saw WhatCar? commented on our Proton Gen.2 today.
… However, it still doesn’t have anti-lock brakes, even as an option.
The only model in the Gen-2 range which has anti-lock brakes as standard is the £10,595 1.6 GSX, so this is the only model in the range we can recommend.
Perhaps Proton should seriously consider in listening to what the consumer wants especially when it has big dream to import its range of cars outside of Malaysia. Safety feature such as ABS is not a luxurious feature but an expectation on every driving machine in Europe.

This is a fowarded mail received few day ago…
A married couple is driving along a highway doing a steady forty miles
perhour. The wife is behind the wheel. Her husband suddenly looks
across at her and speaks in a clear voice.
“Darling,” he says. “I know we’ve been married for twenty years, but I
want a divorce.” The wife says nothing, keeps looking at the road ahead
but slowly increases her speed to 45 mph. The husband speaks again.
“I don’t want you to try and talk me out of it”, he says, “because I’ve
been having an affair with your best friend, and she’s a far better
lover than you are.” Again the wife stays quiet, but grips the steering
wheel more tightly and slowly increases the speed to 55 mph.
He pushes his luck. “I want the house,” he says insistently. Up to 60
mph.”I want the car, too,” he continues. 65 mph. “And,” he says, “I’ll
have the bank accounts, all the credit cards and the boat.”
The car slowly starts veering towards a massive concrete bridge.
This makes him a wee bit nervous, so he asks her: “Isn’t there anything
you want?”
The wife at last replies - in a quiet and controlled voice. “No, I’ve
got everything I need.” she says.
Oh, really?” he inquires, “So what have you got?”
Just before they slam into the wall at 75 mph, the wife turns to him
and smiles.
….”The airbag.”….
Never underestimate how a woman thinks.
Moral of the story:
Buy Toyota VIOS as it has only one airbag (for driver only). The
husband sure die and wife gets everything!
So, for a husband don’t buy a Vios today…. 
Husbands, pls take insurance! but.. think twice for MCIS insurance.
Know why?

Test Your Tire Safety Knowledge!
You drive everyday… BUT…..
Do you know the correct PSI for your vehicle’s tires? CLICK HERE to take a quick quiz to help you determine how much you know about tire maintenance and safety.
The “What’s Your PSI?â€? campaign is designed to challenge consumers to learn the correct tire pressure ( pounds per square inch or PSI ) for their vehicle’s tires, help them to maintain proper pressure — and ultimately help everyone avoid tire failure and crashes.
In addition to making road travel safer, inflating tires to the correct PSI has other benefits as well. Motorists who “know their PSI� and maintain it can help to optimize fuel economy and tire life, saving dollars and protecting our environment in the process.
The PSI number on the sidewall of a tire is the maximum permissible pressure for that tire as determined by the tire manufacturer. Since tires are designed for use by a variety of vehicles, this number does not necessarily reflect the correct PSI for your vehicle. Always follow your vehicle manufacturer’s PSI recommendations.Drive Safely…..
