TAI'ns,
I just joined recently to get advice from experts about which car would suit for my family need. Below are my requirements:
1. The main purpose is to keep for long drive; we may drive 3000 km easily for long journey (Hyderabad - Coimbatore - Cochin - Coimbatore - Hyderabad).
2. Three people usually on board but occasionally 7 people (5 adults + 2 kids) for long journey.
3. Expecting pretty good luggage space, I am okay with roof top carrier.
4. Should be very comfortable for long drive. We have elder in our family (aged 60+) but she is enthusiast for long drive.
5. City drive should be comfortable as well for all of us (7 people on board).
6. Expecting to drive only on highways. NO OFF ROAD drive.
7. Budget can be up to 11 lakhs.
8. We have planned to keep the car for at least 10 years, so not worried about re-sale value, but at the same time I don't like too many visits to service center when the car becomes old.
9. My daily drive to office is about 40 km a day and weekends may go up to 150 km.
I have not shortlisted any cars so far and I am open to take any practical feedback from TAI’ns and I am not in a hurry to book the car immediately as I can wait till December 2013. Any suggestions appreciated.
