Our new permanent HQ Store is at the awesome and realistic Visiwa estate - Click here for a store LM.
Look to highly realistic displays of our first SL sportscar / motorcar - the much sought after Carrera GT.
This highly detailed sculpted vehicle will weigh in at under the 31 allowable prims for a true SL vehicle !!! That's with it's high level of detail including a full 3D sculpted interior and detailed 3D modelled V10 motor, even down to rear suspension coils! Doors will open, bonnet and engine cover will open, and aero-fin will raise and lower at speed or on request.
Genuine recorded Carrera GT sounds will be included, as will a driving HUD.
At the moment we are working hard to get the SL physics as accurate as we can for this classy vehicle, and preparing it to release soon after Havok 4 hits the grid.
This is by far the ultimate Second Life sports-car, and will be the envy of all.
Apart from the showing of a few new Carrera GT's in various colors, displays will include a partly constructed Carrera GT going through its final stages. Users will be able to run a Dyno-test on the motor, as well as do a quick oil and visual inspection underneath the vehicle by using the mechanics creeper. This display is mostly completed.

New Proton
The Proton Saga is the first car produced by Malaysian auto manufacturer Proton. Originally based on the 1983 Mitsubishi Lancer Fiore, the Saga first debuted in September 1985 and retained its core design for two decades, before a successor designed in-house by Proton was launched to replace the aging platform in 2008. The Saga is currently the longest surviving model produced by Proton, soldiering on for nearly 22 years.
Since 1985, the Proton Saga and its variants contributed to most of Proton's sales and revenues. The saloon variants of the car are also popular among Malaysian taxi drivers and operators who need cheap vehicles with good fuel economy
Saga (1985–1991)
The Proton Saga was launched in September 1985 by Malaysia's Prime Minister at that time, Tun Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad. Before the production of Proton Saga, a contest was held to choose the name of the first national car, and the name Saga was chosen from the winner of the contest. The winner of the contestant was Ismail Jaafar[1], a retired military soldier. When asked why he chose this particular name, he replied as "saga" (Abrus precatorius) is a type of seed commonly found in Malaysia, and that the Proton Saga is as strong as the saga seed.
The first Proton Saga that rolled off the production line was presented to the Malaysian National Museum as a symbol of the beginning of the Malaysian automotive industry. Tun Dr. Mahathir also used a new Proton Saga to cross Penang Bridge during the opening ceremony of the bridge on 14 September 1985.
Early Saga models were powered by SOHC 8-valve 4-cylinder petrol engines sourced from Mitsubishi, available in both 1.3- and 1.5-litre displacements. Both engines were available with a 5-speed manual transmission, but a 3-speed Mitsubishi Tri-matic automatic was available with the 1.5-litre engine in 1990.
The Saga was originally offered as a 4-door sedan, followed by the addition of a hatchback variant, introduced in 1988 as the Proton Knight and was later know as Saga Aeroback. The Proton Knight was designed for the European market as the hatchback was more popular in United Kingdom.
In 1989, Proton sold the Saga in the United Kingdom with the slogan Japanese Technology, Malaysian Style. Since then, United Kingdom contributes most of Proton's export sales. The Saga name was not used and it was simply known as the Proton 1.3 or 1.5. The UK models reverted to the dashboard used in the Mitsubishi Lancer, complete with HVAC controls not found in the domestic model.
In 1990, the line-up was revised with the introduction of 12-valve Megavalve engines, which increased power ratings to 75 bhp (56 kW) (from the original 70.5 bhp (53 kW) in the former 8-valve (Magma) version[2]) for the 1.3-litre engine, and 90 bhp (67 kW) for the 1.5-litre engine. On domestic models, the Saga also gained the "Megavalve" moniker. Minor exterior modifications included a new grill and wraparound black trim pieces. In addition, rear seat belts and a third brake light were fitted as standard.
Saga Iswara (1992–2008)
In 1992, the Saga was given a facelift and its name expanded as Proton Saga Iswara (also known in short as Proton Iswara), after a species of butterfly in Sarawak. Modifications included slimmer headlights, plastic bumpers, side mouldings, coloured door handles, grooved taillight clusters and rear number plate repositioned to the bumper. This particular model is used as taxis in Malaysia and some are converted to NGV. Due to the modification, boot space was reduced by half to accommodate the NGV tank and there are only a few petrol stations by Malaysian oil-giant Petronas in the Klang Valley that sell natural gas, although there are plans underway to increase the number of stations selling it at various locations around Kuala Lumpur.
Models exported to Singapore and the United Kingdom were available with multi-point fuel injection and catalytic converters to meet Euro I emissions standards. This model was known as the Proton MPi in the United Kingdom. The introduction of the Proton Persona in 1993 replaced the corresponding models in the Saga range in the United Kingdom and this continued until the entire range was replaced in 1996.
In 2001, to regain sales and be competitive with Perodua, Proton introduced a special edition of Saga Iswara Sport based on the Aeroback version which included a new bodykit, jewel-effect headlights and Altezza lights, among other changes. It was only available in silver, with a manual transmission and a 1.3-litre engine. The original Saga Iswara Aeroback was still available in a 1.5-litre engine.
While the Iswara Aeroback underwent further modifications in the domestic market to become the Saga LMST in 2003, the saloon variant remained on sale unchanged.
Saga (2003–2008)
As a loose successor to the Saga Iswara Sport, Proton gave the Iswara a new facelift and renamed it back to Saga (or know as Saga LMST by local car community) in 2003. The interior has an entirely new dashboard, door panels and an instrument panel with a digital display consisting of an odometer, a fuel gauge and a temperature gauge. Meanwhile, the exterior received new headlights and taillights and colour-coded bumpers and wing mirrors. Proton retuned the 1.3-litre carburettor engine, and fitted a new exhaust system, increasing its power rating to 83 bhp (62 kW). It is only available with the 5-speed manual transmission.
On 5 March, 2007, Proton launched the 50th Merdeka Anniversary Promotion in Malaysia, where the announced new price of the Proton Saga at that time was RM26,999. The promotion was made as a support to Malaysia's 50th Merdeka Day and also to thank Proton's customers for their support since Proton Saga was first launched,[3] receiving several minor cosmetic changes. The move was also an attempt by Proton to steal potential sales from Perodua's then-forthcoming budget supermini, the Viva. That year, the Proton Saga became the second best selling car behind Perodua MyVi and the best selling saloon car in Malaysia, with over 15,000 orders.
Second generation (2008-)
On the 18th of January 2008, Proton unveiled the long-awaited successor to the original car, which will be phased out in June of the same year. Retaining the Saga name, the new car is an indigenous design, essentially based on a stretched Proton Savvy platform.
The new Saga is powered by the same 1.3-litre Campro engine (which was co-designed with Lotus) that is fitted to entry-level Gen-2s. However, it has a new Integrated Air-Fuel Module (IAFM) which varies the airflow into the engine to improve efficiency, smoothening out the problematic dip in the torque curve in the lower and middle rev ranges. The car feels peppy to drive and acceleration to highway speeds is good. It boasts the biggest boot space in its class (413 liters).
Because the new Saga, like its predecessor, is expected to be popular amongst Malaysian taxicab operators, the car is designed to accommodate a compressed natural gas tank without considerably restricting boot space.
The new Saga will be the cheapest Proton once the RM26,999 original is retired[citation needed] in June 2008. Pricing varies between RM31,500 and RM39,800, which led Proton to dub the new Saga as "The People's Car".
As of February 2008, approximately 23,000 customer bookings had been made for the car since its launch (18th January 2008) and the corresponding waiting time for delivery during that same period stretched up to 5 months

Car Accident Protection Plan
Car Accident Protection Plan
When you’re behind the wheel, the safety of your passengers is your top priority. But anything can happen on the road. So in the unfortunate event of an accident, we know the first thing you want settled is the wellbeing of your passengers.
The Etiqa Car Accident Protection Plan is designed to protect you and your passengers against any injury caused by an accident while travelling in a private vehicle, minus the unnecessary paperwork and delays. We not only take care of you; we help take care of the people around you too.
This policy is available in five different options that offer various benefits:
What it Offers
Death benefit
Permanent Disablement benefit
Reimbursement of medical expenses
Special extension
In the event that the insured person is unavoidably exposed to the natural elements, which may cause injury following an accident, such injury shall be constituted as a claim for death or permanent disablement benefits.
However, there are a few exclusions such as war, nuclear risks, suicide, sickness, racing and accidents occurring whilst the driver is affected by drugs or alcohol.
How much does it cost?
Premium is calculated based on the seating capacity of the vehicle and the cost varies for each plan. For example, if you choose to purchase Plan 1, you'll have to pay RM60 per annum for a five-seat vehicle and RM142 for a 15-seat vehicle.
What are its special limitations?
Only passengers above the age of 16 are covered for 100% of the insured benefits. Passengers aged between 3 and 16 are entitled to 50% of all the benefits provided. Children below the age of 3 are not eligible for any coverage. In the event that the actual number of passengers exceeds the number stated in the policy, the Company's limit of liability per person will be reduced by the ratio of the actual number of passengers declared.
How to Apply
We would like to ensure that this is the plan that best serves your needs. You can contact us at the nearest Etiqa branch, email us at info@etiqa.com.my or call our Customer Service at 1-300-13-8888 for a quotation and further detail of this plan.

The Etiqa Car Accident Protection Plan is designed to protect you and your passengers against any injury caused by an accident while travelling in a private vehicle, minus the unnecessary paperwork and delays. We not only take care of you; we help take care of the people around you too.
This policy is available in five different options that offer various benefits:
What it Offers
Death benefit
Permanent Disablement benefit
Reimbursement of medical expenses
Special extension
In the event that the insured person is unavoidably exposed to the natural elements, which may cause injury following an accident, such injury shall be constituted as a claim for death or permanent disablement benefits.
However, there are a few exclusions such as war, nuclear risks, suicide, sickness, racing and accidents occurring whilst the driver is affected by drugs or alcohol.
How much does it cost?
Premium is calculated based on the seating capacity of the vehicle and the cost varies for each plan. For example, if you choose to purchase Plan 1, you'll have to pay RM60 per annum for a five-seat vehicle and RM142 for a 15-seat vehicle.
What are its special limitations?
Only passengers above the age of 16 are covered for 100% of the insured benefits. Passengers aged between 3 and 16 are entitled to 50% of all the benefits provided. Children below the age of 3 are not eligible for any coverage. In the event that the actual number of passengers exceeds the number stated in the policy, the Company's limit of liability per person will be reduced by the ratio of the actual number of passengers declared.
