Dear Sirs,
I am reading this forum for last 3 months and find you advice people very neutral and very good. Looking for all your advise to choose the right car and book by next week.
I am 45 + executive and need to buy a sedan car ASAP. I stay in Bangalore for last few yeas. The car ex-showroom cost must be within 10 Lac. (including discount). The main use will be :
1: City Drive - 20 KM (Home to Office and back) - 80%
2. Hill - Ghat area drive : twice in year : 1500 KM max. - 20%
I donot know petrol or diesel car to take or not. Anything is good for me.
My objective:
A car with :
1: Less yearly service cost
2: Very safe car with good build quality.
3: Easy to drive in City.
4: Good fuel mileage
Verna/ City not considered at all at family donot like them.
Took TD for the following:
1> Tjet 125S :
Pros: Very safe, very good breaks, very good pickup.
Cons: Not easy to drive in City, As per the review it will cost me too much for fuel bill, Bit costly to maintain, leg space very less.
2> Skoda Rapid Ambition 1.6 MPI
Cons: Very good to drive, very comfortable in back seat, Nice look,
Pro: Seems bit slow pickup but not sure.
3> Skoda Rapid Ambition 1.5 TDI
Pros: Very good pickup, Loved to drive in city & highway
Cons: Vibration noticed, Notice noise ever what the ac on and all windows closed.
4> Volkswagen Vento Comfortline 1.2 Petrol AT
Pros: Automatic....I liked it as I will grow old I might need it in city drive. All others same as Rapid.
Cons: Seems highest in maintain cost among all the four option. ATF cost very high. DSG gear box not dependable????
* I need to keep the car (my only car) till the time possible.
