New Toyota Wish Launched



It's finally launched!

I don't quite like the styling, but there are some improvements in this model such as a larger cabin, repositioned side mirror for better visibility. The new paddle shift on the steering wheel looks nice. The speedometer looks cool too.

Cheers,

www.wishclub.org is now defunct!

Was tidying up the site a bit and realised that the old wishwerk website is now gone. Wonder if the workshop is still around.

Met Sebestian the other day and he is now running Makan Express. He has a italian eatery and a sushi joint at Clementi Ave 2 coffeeshop. Enterprising guy!

Finally.... The Alpine W202 head unit is up!

After a few false starts, and putting this baby in cold storage for about 2 whole years, finally got off my butt and took the Alpine W202 set and all the accessories to be fixed up at Darren Audio yesterday. Optical cable, Ipod Cable, 701 processor, remote, etc, were all installed.

In addition, I added something else!!!! It's the DLS 4 channel amp!



Due to space constraint, I could not add the A4, so settled for the reference series.

More to come!

It's been so looonnng!

Wow! It's been sooo long since I last update this blog. More than a year ago. Obviously I've lost interest along the way as there wasn't much left to do that I found appealing.

It's not that I don't like my car anymore. In fact, over the years, I've grown to like the Wish very much and the way it handles on the road. A lot of friends still wonder why I get such a big car when that's only 2 of us in it most of the time.

Anyway, had to do some spring cleaning and dug up a box of stuff that I've yet to put in the car, so decided to get back into the game and put whatever I can find on the ride.

Will update a bit on what happened in retropect if I get around to it.

Also, this was previously a closed group, restricted to a few. I have now decided to open up the blog for all to read.

Cheers,
