[Events] We headed over to Brotzeit German Bier Bar & Restaurant in Mid Valley on Saturday, 17 September 2016, for the beer tapping ceremony at 7.30pm (Malaysian time) which is roughly about the same time that the first Oktoberfest barrel is tapped in Germany by the Mayor of  Munich.

The (2017) Honda Jazz Petrol is powered by the 1.5L i-VTEC engine coupled with Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) which was developed under Honda’s Earth Dreams Technology. The engine provides 120 PS at 6,600 … Continue reading A Date with the (2017) Honda Jazz 1.5L V (Car Review) and New Price List with SST (Effective 1 September 2018)
