Question

I am new to car driving and am not sure.. i saw some Maruti cars and also spark but after looking into some of the articles on the net, i am really confused. I find that an average buyer has too many choice and hence a lot of confusion too... Wagon R, Estilo, Spark, Alto, 800, Getz, i10, Santro, Indica, Palio, Swift, Aveo UVa and to add to the fuel, three new cars to be launched in Indian Market soon!!! Splash, A-Star and Nano... What a confusion...? Can someone give me a comprehensive and consise reviews on the mentioned cars and their variants or suggest a website where i can read up on the said cars... so that i can make a decision at the earliest ... also can someone confirm when the Trio new cars are going to be launched in Chennai?

Answer 2

Answer 4

Well I deeply recemond you if your not Brand Savvy then you should go for FIAT or TATA, these cars reliable and have a great value for money, well i can say if you buy a Fiat or Tata you will some how develope a feeling with them, It'll make you feel something which you can't express.

Well i would also recemond that you should go what you feel is good or pretty rather then get carried away by other's review or view for something afterall it's your car then you should be the one who should have a will to live a life with your car, I believe purchasing car is something like getting married to it and have a life with it.

Some people understand it the rest would lagh.

Now it's upto you.

Well if you still want to read some reviews the visit the following site it's got plenty of reviews regarding any thing.

wagon r or swift...

Answer 6

i will advice you to go for diesel car or one with the LPG option so you have wagon R,indica LPG and indica Diesel if u want low running cost maruti 800 LPG is also there but 800 is not comfortable, getz & swift are more than ur budget if u dont mind high running cost then u can go for i10>alto>santro>estilo>palio>uva

Answer 7

Hi

Within a budget of 3.5 lacs you have the option of a Santro Xing, WagonR, Alto, Estilo and the i10.

Out of these above models the wagonr and estilo have not done well and are not basically good cars aprt from the engine. Worst is the very poor resale value.

Alto has done very well and is a small and compact car for city roads with a very good resale value.

Santro xing has now lost the charm since its the same model running for 5 years now. I own one and its done its job very well. But now its too old to turn and look at one. Its resale value is much better than the wagonr and estilo.

i10 is now hot and is quite good, sleek and compact but with lack of pep in its engine.

I would suggest you to look out for used brand new cars as you are new to driving and also u get about 25-30

5 of the onroad price of brand new showroom cars. In used cars for your budget you can look for Swift petrol, getz and many more cars.

Forget the spark its not a good car as it comes under chevrolet brand and has no buyers when comes for sale. Very poor resale value.

Consider my points and all the best for a happy motoring.
