I have been driving Ford ranger,dakota ,toyota hylux since last 4 years. they do not give any issues or pain.
But when i drive punto after 3 or 4 months gap I have pain in my right ankles ,left arm and wrist which fades off gradually within 2 days.
still i love punto not because i am a masochist .
The fun ,involvement and thrill i get in punto is something which does not come in above mentioned heavy big cars while you drive.
They can be driven by ladies,and kids . my boss's 12 year old kid drives dakota 4.7l V8 (302-
bhp) in weekends ,it so easy and comfortable you just need a finger and one foot.
It was so good driving old toyota LC but new one just felt like robot.
that said have you driven any of the true offroaders, you may be bedridden if you are not tough enough. I have tried a customized military one. ohh god it was scary.i had to stand on accelerated to make it move trule built to last for 2 century.!!
nano is manual steering it may probably give bit of pain initially.
Indica vista had well wieghted steering i too experienced pain initially but after when I changed seating position it was fine.
tata manza is so easy to drive there is no feel at all in steering.
Comfort levels can be increased with over assisted hydraulics or electric motors but they steal true spirit of driving giving a dead feeling.
some things like you can go over mount Everest in helicopter too but look so many people are trying and dying trekking.
I think older tata cars had lot of issues. even Indica vista tdi is problematic. But qaudrajet and later is very good one i suppose.
One of our member cooldhaya has a Tata aria let us see what he would say about inconvenience in his ride.
Dhaya are you reading?
I dont think popularity increases resale
that is very strange statement.
