Introduction
Proton is a company with one or two tricks up its sleeve. As well as acquiring the Lotus brand, it has started to develop cars that are surprisingly good to drive. The Impian was the first Proton to really raise eyebrows with its crisp road manners but it was always too conservative on the inside and a little dated on the outside to appeal to a wide audience. The Malaysian company fixed that in 2004 when it launched the GEN-2 hatchback. With modern styling and a chassis carried over from the Impian, this is a car that needs no excuses. Inexpensive to begin with, a used GEN-2 nets you a lot of car for your money.

Models
Models Covered: 5 door family hatchback and saloon 1.3, 1.6 petrol [GLS, SX, GSX].
