At 15-18 lacs:-
If petrol,then:-
Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla V.
If diesel then:-
- VW Jetta.
- M&M XUV W8.
- Toyota Corolla(in case chauffeur driven)
- Skoda Laura M/T or Yeti 4X2 Ambition.
If used then:-
- Toyota Fortuner.
- Skoda Superb.
Correct..
If you are looking for a second hand sedan, look for the Cruze. This will be around 11-12 Lacs. Else, if you want a new car, look at the Rapid, Vento and Verna. Verna and Vento maybe a little over your budget.
I am also tilted towards the Verna but worried about the ride quality..
His budget for an apt new car is 16 - 18 lacs.
Fazer, since you were using Chevy Optra and liked it, a used Cruze will be one good option. For a family of 3 and only one person travelling for most of the time, lack of space in Cruze won't be an issue.
Else if it is a new car, with your priorities and budget, Laura Diesel could be a right choice.
Mmm..Cruze. I went to used car shop yesterday but found no Laura or Cruze..
Used diesel Sedan: Cruze / Altis / Jetta / Laura will fit well within your budget. Each one has got their own Pros & Cons.
I would suggest you to reconsider a used UV too. Since you already had a Chevy at home, why not a Captiva?
Dude, you are not confused, confusing us
Rapid is such a nice car, but not sure about off-road capability.
Used diesel sedan : Cruze (I am searching desperately for it.), Altis (NO! My car will not be chauffer driven.), Jetta (I would hardly get Highline vairant loaded with features, so, NO!), Laura (Yes..Great car but could not find it!..Vipul : What about selling yours to me?
)
no..Fianl decision : No UV..:)
Yes, I know, My mind is not becoming unstable, everytime I see a car going on the road (from my window), I start thinking that - What about this one??!
Sorry..
-----

New Requirements:
Fuel : Diesel
Car : Sedan
Manufacturer : Any one except renault, mitsubishi..
Budget : New Car : 18 L max on-road .. Used car : 12 L Max.
New "Cars considered" (FINAL DECISION WILL BE FROM THESE CARS ONLY) :

2. Chevy Cruze LT/LTZ
3. Skoda Rapid
4. Skoda Laura
5. Hyundai Verna
6. Maruti SX4 ZDI
7. Nissan Sunny XV
IF, I CONSIDER UV'S (If you guys want me to buy a UV), THEN :
1. Tata Safari
2. Mahindra XUV500
3. Mahindra Scorpio
4. Skoda Yeti

Yesterday, I went to the Used car shop, the same shop from which we brought the Optra and to which we sold the optra.
The Owner greeted us and showed us several cars - Tata safari, Mahindra Scorpio, Yeti, Linea, Fluence and Sunny, But, We didn't liked any because of the condition!
Now, Dad and I will go there on Tuesday to see if he gets any more cars..
