It was an officer's car, at the back there was a sticker 'Pegawai Penyiasat PDRM' and the 'KL' sticker.

Haywire,
U WON'T get a summons from these vehicle, these are crime investigator and I have overtook them numerous times, sometimes they see me coming fast, they will move to the middle lane to allow me to overtake.
I even invite EVO patrol cars to race, normally driven by young officers and they gladly obliged. Many times already....

Wow, serious ka? Must be quite sporting of them to oblige. :)

They are really bored in their seats, who dare to race with them. They really like it when you go alongside them and wave them to race. Polite and good chaps. One tip, always allow them to overtake u at least once, otherwise their ego hurts.
 
And this is probably the reason why one of the PDRM's evo's crashed in the past.
Hahahahahaha...

Were you the cause of that dude?

Wow, serious stuff uh. I always wondered, whether these moving patrol cars on the highways are actually setting traps for us to fall in, tracking our speed, or simply just getting from point A to B.

I have encountered numerous times, patrol cars travelling at about 90km/h on the slow lanes, and when they spot BMW's or Merc's, immidiately speed up to about 130~140 km/h, just to see if those cars would dare pass the 110km/h speed.

With your story now, i guess they are monitoring speeds while moving too..

Same thing happen to me as well. I'm tailing a patrol car at 160kph & he is driving on the right lane. Of course normally ill flash the car infront if they drive too slow on the right lane but this is patrol car. I dare not flash but tailing. After tailing around 10km, he finally keep to left & let me pass. This guy really trap me as i kena speed trap after 1km!!!!! So beware of speed trap if the patrol car let u past them..
 
If i see a patrol car speeding in front of me, i normally slow down..
Once i came accross a patrol car that was zig zagging its way through traffic just to entice a couple of "Ah Beng" modified cars, luckily they had some brains..
 
Dont be suprised that a saman will come to us after they crash saying that we are the cause , since they gave us a chase because we didnt stop.After all they need to justify why they crash. If me , i will slowdown .. after a while passing them , then i will tekan again.

Tweiboon missed one VERY important point in that post. The government will stop those USED parts, new parts will still be able to import la.

Now also can import but need 1 month or 2 months only get the spare part loh. For my concern is if 2nd hand spart part no more than will increase the lost car cases. And those less spare part car like BMW , Benz , chevrolet , volvo and etc might be very top target for the thief already.

Government claimed that accident occurred alot is because of using 2nd spare parts , do u really think so ?

I think it's also highly influenced by driver's skills themselves. We're not perfect drivers, and some, even more gung-ho than others, and some, well, just plain unlucky. We all just need to stay safe always.
 
for you its okay coz ur car e39 M5 and you very good driver...we all lousy driver so cannot use 2nd hand parts...

Guys, harping on the banning subject,

Will this also apply to stuff that we purchase online, for e.g., I might suddenly opt for a used pair of fog lamps from UK, and will the ban extend to such purchases?

Probably will be banned as well, but fyi fog lights is not included. Crucial parts only as listed by tweiboon.

So what is the government's motive to stop the 2nd spare parts to import to malaysia ? Wants to increase stolen car in order to get more spare parts ?

Don't look at it that way I would say.

Some cars, well, hot demand for parts. Or just plain unlucky, being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Any car also can be stolen, period.

As for our cars, well, always take preventive measures then? If you're always afraid that your car will be stolen, then by all means, prevent it from even happening in the first place.

Don't even think of leaving your car running when you wanna close the gate or run out to grab something, it's these little things that count, and of course, some common sense to ensure our rides are always safe.

As for the g'ment's motive, I really got no clue la. I'm not really keen on local politics.

no lah, not me. For me, if a driver is racing beside me and I feel he cant brake in time to avoid an obstruction in front, I will always slow to allow him to cut in.... After all, why take it so seriously to cause harm or death to an fellow motorist who is out to have some fun alongside with u.

True... true... age catching up i guess... nowadays just feel like plodding along rather than zipping along.
 
never knew the cops could track speeds above 200km/h. Always careful near cop cars on highway. Sure as hell never invited a cop car for a race. Pull off at R&R, minum teh and then back on the road and gun it. Hemmm got to be more careful. Thanks guys. cheers

I am currently driving a e36 and looking to upgrade to e39. Check out quite a number of e39s but the condition was not that good. The best is this unit at this site

http://www.carlist.my/used-cars/316443/bmw-528i-a-2-8auto-e39-m-sport-new-facelift.html

I find that the mileage at 80+ k rather unbelievable. Is it possible for an 11 year old car. How is the price? Is it reasonable?
