1998 Proton Tiara GL 1.1 from Malaysia
Summary:
Value for money
Faults:
Normal problems would be drive shaft(s) replacement, overheating, wiring and soft body panels.
Only thing I hated most is the dashboard display. No RPM, no temperature meter (once red is too late) and extremely inaccurate petrol readings.
Making me have to fix external RPM meter and temperature meter. But it looks cool anyway.
General Comments:
I bought my Tiara back in March 1999 brand new.
However I noticed a lot of Tiara owners in Malaysia don't know how to take care of the car. Or should I say they have no idea where to go to repair and do enhancements to the car.
But I am glad to once lead a club of more than 100 Tiara in Malaysia under AX Tiara Auto Club Malaysia (AXTAC).
Anyway, if you need help or parts, do let me know and drop me an email: rickwong@zerotohundred.com
Would be glad to assist fellow Tiara drivers.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

You should have let me know earlier. I sold my Tiara for a really dirt cheap price as I was facing continuous overheating problems and gearbox 2nd gear problem. Send back to Proton only to be ripped of by them and they can't even solve the problem.
