Re: confused between 10 years old cars and new technological advance cars
Honestly, If you need a flashy car go for Accord but if you are ok with a calmer design and so called TAXI brand vehicle then go for TATA Manza. TATA cars are rough and tough but over a period of time, the age creates alot of issues with them. Moreover, ASC network of TATA and Honda are miles apart in Service and Customer Satisfaction. Honda Cars on other hand are a bit delicate than TATA. Performance wise, Manza is no match to Accord. You'll have a devil's smile with the kind of fast paced performance it has. However, apart from higher cost of spares and poor FE in Honda Accord, you should consider the fact that after 2 years you'll need to apply for fitness of Accord and then have to pay Road Tax too since its only valid for 15 years. I would say, in 1.5 L you can go for Nano, Alto, Wagon R, Chevy Spark, Even 1st gen Swift and Jazz can be considered.
