I purchased this car (5-door hatchback) brand new in 2015, while living in Sydney (still have the original purchase papers) and 3 years later (in 2018), I returned home to New Zealand and brought the car with me. At that stage, it had only done 10,000km. (I lived next door to my workplace).
It has now done 37,700km. (genuine)
The Proton Suprima-S GXR has a turbo 1.6L. engine, 7-speed CVT automatic gears, plus sports mode and paddle gears, Lotus handling/suspension, auto headlights, auto windscreen wipers, infotainment system, leather seats, reversing camera and front sensors as well and loads more features.etc.

Features of the GXR are best summarised in the attached infomercial video link: youtu.be...

Obviously the warranty described on this infomercial has expired.
The Micro-SD card slot (which housed the NZ/AU GPS navigation micro-SD card) became faulty and was taken out by a local auto-electrician. Replacement slot can be ordered from the Malaysia infotainment manufacturer apparently (I have the contact details). so at present, the GPS Sat-Nav. not working, but ALL other features of the infotainment system (as described in the infomercial) are working well (eg: Android, WiFi, bluetooth, DVD/CD player, radio, etc.). Overall, really great car, excellent road hugging and sporty as well as comfortable. Never had any problems with it and regularly serviced. Just had a new W.O.F. and service done (June 2022).

A “GHOSTLY” SOUND IN KAPITI?

Music aficionados everywhere appreciate and love the complexities of top-flight chamber music. This is music written for and played by small groups of musicians, each instrument having its own part to play within the whole, the result being the beautiful sound we hear. In earlier times “chamber” music was just that – music played in people's homes for their own enjoyment. Nowadays, chamber music is heard in concert halls and on recordings too, but it still works best when the musicians are close together and close to their audience to appreciate the live sound.

Ghost Trio is a group of such musicians – Monique Lapins (violin), Ken Ichinose (cello) and Gabriela Glapska (piano) and they will be appearing soon at the Paekakariki Memorial Hall as part of the 2022 Mulled Wine Concert series. Organiser Mary Gow is delighted to have such a fine group playing on the Kapiti Coast. “They are a fairly new group” she says “formed in 2019, they have been getting rave reviews wherever they go”. The group has recently toured nationwide for Chamber Music New Zealand and were commended for their elan and unfailing attention to musical detail.

The trio is international in outlook – Monique is the second violinist of the NZ String Quartet and lectures at the New Zealand School of Music, Ken is a graduate of the UK's Royal Academy of Music and Gabriela is from Poland, where she received her first degree, later studying for her Ph.D degree in music at the NZSM. She is the rehearsal pianist for the Royal New Zealand Ballet. The group will present an interesting mix of music at its concert on Sunday 19 June. The great masters will be presented: Beethoven and Brahms will be featured, of course, but along with these will be more modern composers – Eve de Castro-Robinson's “At Water's Birth” and the Piano Trio of Fauré.

“A feast of sound for the discerning listener” is how the organiser describes the concert. The venue will be the lovely sea-front Paekakariki Memorial Hall which offers stunning views of Kapiti Island to match the wonderful sounds within. AND FREE MULLED WINE.



====================



Mulled Wine Concerts present GHOST TRIO: Monique Lapins (violin), Ken Ichinose (cello), Gabriela Glapska (piano) . Paekakariki Memorial Hall, 96 The Parade, Paekakariki 5034 on SUNDAY 19 June 2022.
