Drove Peugeot 308 @ Genting Highlands

Recently drove the Peugeot 308 down the Genting Highlands just to have a feel on how the car rides with all the winding stretches and the constant braking.

The 1.6 VTi 120bhp machine with a 6 speed automatic transmission has a firm steering feel but slight understeer when I was driving it down the hill.

Thai Food @ Bukit Genting Hill, Penang

Was told that the food was worth the drive there but I am not too sure how true is that cause it doesn’t taste all that great to me. Maybe it’s the landscape that help build the rating up. (more…)
