My reviews
after nearly 1 week of driving 
Behind The Wheel
(4/5)
The fairly roomy interior seats comfortably 7 adults (I tried it
with 7 adults and 2 kids). The driving position is upright with
limited adjustment, but the large wing mirrors give a good rearward
visibility. The design of the cabin is simple and it's pretty user
friendly. There's a good quality stereo, central locking on all
five doors, heated rear window and good lightings (includes front
map reading lights). No power steering is not so much an issue
(small tyres).
On The Road
(3/5)
It's an agile and nimble car, ideal for city driving. Its compact
shape means it can weave through traffic and park-up in tight
places, while its engine gives nippy acceleration up to 40km/hr (it
performs best with lighter loads). The steering is pretty sharp,
but you need to be forceful with the gear change and careful around
sharp turns (high centre of gravity means that there's a lot of
body roll). On the expressway, the 1.1-litre engine can feel
stretched and at higher speeds the steering can become a little
vague. You sit almost on top of the engine, so engine noise is a
problem - especially at higher speeds - creating a 'buzzy' noise
inside the cabin, making longer trips a chore. It also lacks power
at 50-70kmh/hr, which means overtaking moves have to be well
planned. I tried driving up a slope with 6 adults and yes its not
fast but I can still move at 40kmhr (3rd gear).
Brakes And Wheels
(3/5)
Ventilated disc brakes at the front and drums at the rear provides
me a better than expected braking power (of course when full load
have to keep my distance).
Safety and Security
(3/5)
It is a budget car, but from the price that I am paying I have no
qualms over safety. The car comes with fog lamps (front and rear),
remote central locking and alarm.
Running Costs
(4/5)
As it is 3 yrs warranty, parts will not be an issue for me yet.
However it is a cheap car and generally quite cheap to run
(insurance, road tax & parts). I will update the Fuel
Consumption (FC) figures, after I the first 1000kms run.
Reliability
(3/5)
Generally mechanically robust, like most cars it needs to have
regular service. As expected (from the price), the interior isn't
as heavy duty, much of the trim can be easily damaged.
Verdict
(4/5)
You get for what you pay for and I feel very satisfied with Hafei
Minz. It's definitely worth my every penny, but let me know if you
can find a cheaper or similar price mpv
