My Citroen App: Now available for the Brunei Market!
What does it do? It can track your car’s stats for each trip. We’re talking about from where you started your journey to where you end. How many km did it travel, what time the car was used and our favourite part, how much fuel did it consume in the local currency. As you can see our latest trip cost 0.45 BND for 12km of travel! And our trip to KB? It cost us 4.62 BND!
Doesn’t all this make you wonder why taxis are overcharging by a lot?
The app also tells you when its time to service your car, tire pressure warning, where the car is currently located and how much fuel you left. Basically, everything you need to know about your car can be seen in the app.
Father’s can use this app to keep track on where their children is bringing their car. Employees can easily claim that fuel allowance and if your car went missing, it can easily be tracked through this app.
We rate this app a full 5 star for its usefulness.

Interior: one thing that we like is the fabric seats. They have designed it in such a way that it feels like a lounge chair. It made our long trip to KB felt cozy for the front and back passenger. The addition of a 3-point safety belt for the middle passenger made this car even safer. However, the placement of the belt coming from the roof made it uncomfortable for the left passenger as it often gets in the way. We wish Citroen would improve on the design for future models.
Having a built-in wireless charger is a plus point as getting yourself tangled with wires in the cabin can be a hassle for everyday driving. Place your phone on the charging dock and connect it to the car’s infotainment system via Bluetooth. The system is simple and easy to use but a bit slow for our liking. We’re happy that the interface is well designed and doesn’t look like a cheap system that you might find in other car brands. Well done, Citroen.

The exterior of the C3 AIRCROSS looks great from the side and the back but the front makes it look like it came from a Disney's Monster Inc. movie. This car can connect more to the young with a bubbly personality.
However, driving this in the city was a breeze. One of our favourite part was the light steering that made turning into tight corners and maneuvering into any parking spot less of a chore than it normally is. When you're gonna daily a car, this feature will not drain your energy as compared to wrestling with a tight steering all the time.
Citroen made a great job in making this small compact SUV easy to drive.

What's new with the 2019 Mazda CX-5?
- Lighter steering.
- Driver attention alert.
- Apple Car Play & Android Auto.
- 360 cam.
Our favourite feature is the Driver attention alert that re-aligns the car automatically into your lane when it senses the car drifting sideways. It makes it one of the safest mid-size SUV in the market right now.

He had zero knowledge on how to restore a car when he bought the Corolla KE35. Passion drove him to self learn on how to restore it.
Started off with making the engine work, then the braking system..and the rest followed.

Day One had us driving from the smooth tarmac to patchy and bumpy ones. We hit the roads from Kuta to and spent almost 3 hours along the roads with lots of sharp turns and changing altitudes and temperature. Nevertheless, the journey was comfortable for everyone inside the All-New Ertiga.
