50,000 Miles with some cars

Miles: 11,450
1989 Ibishu SAGA
(DISCALMER) At about 900 miles I decides to restart the odometer of the SAGA at grid map V2 So I could actually have an Area To drive at 100 Mph for a few hours, and then 0.24 Dropped. And I had to restart the Odometer.. Again. SO here is 11,450 Miles of driving the SAGA in grid map V2 on beam Version 0.24.1 (sigh)
Back to the car
We were traveling at a steady 101 MPH for most of the time and after about 10 hours of driving we reached 11,000 miles. What We noticed while we were driving was a unsteady cruise control that was set to 105 mph, but was actually going 101. Besides this mishap nothing went terribly wrong with the SAGA in the long haul, in fact it is probably one of the best road tripping cars out there. Speaking of comfort The SAGA is lacking in such with a boring plasticky interior, The Leather brown interior helped a little bit but not enough to make a difference. Lastly there is the performance Area of things, with a turbo 1.8 Liter engine making 121 hp. this SAGA scoots to 60 in 9.3 seconds these performance times never really got better or worse over the period of time. Compare these times to a 2010 Gavril H25's scoot to 60 in 8.8 seconds, but the H25 made more Horsepower.. pick your poison. It is worth mentioning the SAGA is very fun to corner at the limit, as we said above even though the SAGA is fun to rip around corners, it is also a comfortable long hauler. Please note that the SAGA has not been pushed very hard at all, but that will change in the next update.

[Please ignore the 2010 Gavril H25 in the background, this is our camera van]
Check back next time to see how the SAGA performances in speed bumps and handling courses.​

1989 Ibishu SAGA
Right after 12k miles ticked off we turned around and headed to the testing facility. This is where we tested the SAGAs suspension and ground clearance. Speaking of ground clearance the SAGA has very little of it but that is expected for a sports coupe. The SAGA goes over bump not very well as we found out the hard way, so we suggest you skip rallying. SO the SAGA can't handle well, can it at least corner well. Yes. The SAGA corners very well and has a great steering feel, but in some fast sharp turning situations the SAGA has a tendency to oversteer. Keep in mind though that this SAGA was punished during this testing time. A result of this was a overheating temperature of 238 degrees Fahrenheit at about 19,200 miles.

But you can go into rally team and custom saga to rally cor.



Will be there some another car after this

 

I completed all 50k miles with the SAGA and just haven't had time to finish and hammer out all the mis-spellings and stuff like that. And besides I got a lot of Comments out of the forums that this thread was a bad Idea.. So I'm debating weather I should choose another car or stop this thing.

 

Bad idea? That is good idea, cuz it's realism

1989 Ibishu SAGA
As soon as we were done at the testing faciality, we headed back out into the unknown. We set our cruise control for 130 mph and stayed at this constant speed until we reached 38,400ish miles and the engine reached a hot 234 degrees Fahrenheit. So we slowed down and waited for the engine to cool down. Soon after the waiting ended we tested braking and we experienced brake fade.. This problem never went away. but at best the SAGA could achieve a stopping distance from 70, in 7 pessima lengths. After this Issue we decided to collect our last bit of performance data before our SAGA died..
At about 246 degrees our SAGA threw a 0-60 time of 8.7 seconds. A top speed of 133 mph, before it stalled out. After a few more hours of waiting we proceeded to drive at 125 mph for 8k miles, at which point our SAGA took it's final breath and died.
Results:
The SAGA is a great vehicle for winding up and down back roads.. and that's about it.

A hint to our next vehicle, If we do another vehicle. It's American.​

A teaser to our next testimony

Full first review coming soon

 

Wendover at gridmap or maybe gsp.

 

Miles: 9,947 miles
1994 Soliad Wendover sport SE 3800 (A)
For our next car, we choose a 1994 Soliad Wendover sport SE. Soliad was all out of SE 4400, so we choose the next best. The SE 3800. Our tester car has No potions whatsoever. We are starting out this test so far with just plan flat out driving. At 120 mph. We have logged no serous issues, or complaints. in our testing we reached a 0-60 time of 7.4 seconds, and a quarter mile time of 16.3 seconds. At around 7,570 miles we downshifted in a quick turning maneuver, and in this instance the engine over-revved to 6,300 RPMs This issue did not affect performance, as the 0-60 time was still 7.4 sec. So we conclude that this was just a misshape. But the automatic transmission has in some cases over the time has refused to upshift in third gear and if it does it loses momentum for about 1-2 seconds. There is also torque steer.. but that is expected.

Check back, probably not soon to see how this Wendover fares in handling.

Soliad, don't ashame yourself
