2000 Proton Waja 1.6 from Malaysia
Faults:
Head lamp intermittent (frequently)
Rear door handle broke after 2 years (common problem)
General Comments:
No major problem, just some minor problems due to use of low quality materials, especially in the cabin where cheap plastics are used everywhere, though Proton make an effort to use leathered dashboard.
Very stable on highway, I managed to cruise comfortably at 170kmph and still feel safe.
It will be a better car if Proton looks into its quality problems more seriously.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

I would just like to say that I have owned a proton 1.6 since new, and have covered over 80,000km. to be honest there are small problems with it. but overall I think it's a great car. so stop being so critical of it!
