I AM THE LAW~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AAARRRRGGGGHHH!!!!!

GAGAL!!!!!!! FAIL Fail!!!!!!

yup thats what i got after the PUSPAKOM inspection... This is the governing body commissioned by the road transport department to inspects all Vehicles on the road... I had to get the car inspected because its been off the road for so many years...

they mentioned that it failed the alignment test and they want a letter from JPJ for the new floors that were put in.... sigh.... My guess is that the i need to rebalance the wheels... I got it balance at a shop near the house and when i went there to complain the guy confessed that he had used settings for VW Beetle as in the NEW BEETLE.... @#^$#$@$E@... stupid moron... of cos being a typical malaysian shop i didnt get a refund but they offered to give me a free balancing and alignment work done for my car...
gave him a look and drove out of there. Then i went to the shop i originally bought the tyres from and he did a great job la,,... i was so stupid not coming here in the first place

Then I went to JPJ (the road transport department) and interestingly they are wondering why PUSPAKOM is making such a fuss about my floorboards... they said that they only do inspection on floorboards for commercial vehicles only.... but agreed that a letter of 'ubah suai' (replacement and repair) is needed when replacing floorboards... but again complained about puspakom pushing the matter to them...

So they said they can do me a favour and said that inspection is by appointment only which they set ta date in two weeks time !!!!!!!!!!!!!TWO WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!

My local vw club was saying this sounds soooo fishy... as in are they fishing for money... anyways....

he got back after half hour with a file with him... asked me more questioned and got a copy of my id and licence and then told me it would take a week to file the report and a letter will be issued when its approved...

I tell you it was one confusing month... looks like what everyone is saying is right.... jpj themselves dont know whats going on within the rules and regs and guidelines ..... SNAFU!!! alert...
after going from one counter to the other... then from one officer to another... as you all know i got a date for JPJ to inspect my car... which i had to wait two weeks... and when that date arrived i went there early and handed in my car to the officer... who told me to go have breakfast and then said he will call me once they were done...his estimate was around 10am (which meant he wanted to go have breakfast first lah).... after waiting for two hours... i sneaked back to the inspection area to find my car parked at one side... and nobody was around... when asked at the counter if the officer was around and if my car was done... i got the usual "oh dia pergi minum" (he went for a drink) a few minutes later the officer arrives and tell me that the inspection is done and in a weeks time a letter of approval will be issued..

One week later and i didnt get any neas from them... So I called the officer and he said that the letter is ready but just need his director's signature.... and guess what?? The director is on vacation///....

Malaysia Boleh

After two weeks i still dont hear from them...... so I called them up again and he says come by next week as the director will be in.... Wow... i didnt know Directors in a government office can take more than one month holiday... so i let a week go by and i then i just showed up there to surprise them... and he sure looked at me surprised.... I just asked 'Is the director around to sign my approval letter?' and he says yes... 15 minutes later i drive out of there with my beetle endorsed by JPJ........ and guess what... I didnt pay a single sen... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! scumbags!!!

I drive in to PUSPAKOM early the next morning and to my surprise i got into a priority line because one of the officers mistakenly thought i was VIP........ seriously so you mean the rest of society has to line up for hours waiting their turn... while the VIP just cuts into the line...

When they suddenly realized i wasnt a VIP all of them were looking at each other like they were trying to pin the fault on someone... KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKE the look on their faces was priceless....

a few minutes later im out of there with my approval certs.......

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA so long suckersssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!

with all those documents i finally get my insurance and road tax done.... and the next day the Beetle is finally road legal again............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

15th of August 2011.... the day my Beetle was road legal again.... sigh.... finally....

Upholstery

Its custom.... but kept to look like original...  very very slight difference to an original design but ofcos the material is not original at all...

...i love it


I managed to find a 65 driver's side seat but still cldnt find a passenger side one... so my 66 passenger side seat will do....

Picked up the rear seats from the shop but i cant seem to find a before shot of the seats.... hmmmm

Sent the front seats to the shop and after a few days went to visit.....   

 The car pretty dusty at the upholstery shop........ but still looks goood..........

Nope im going to leave those wheels like that.....
