my daddy would need a hatch for his local travelling in his native place.
though we have a new scorpio in our hands, dad is a bit apprehensive playing with the new vehicle.
current history with armada suggests dad might end up brushing up the car since of his age. (he is 60+)
usage would be primarily in our native place @ sindhudurg.
dad would travel from mumbai to our native place by train and use the car for his local day to day travels.
looking at the current prices of diesel cars i doubt if one can get a diesel car under 5 Lakhs.
so i have convinced dad to consider a pre-owned car.
so keeping the maintenance costs of the car (if pre-owned) in consideration, what would you guys recommend.
for reference our roads are decent enough all year except the monsoons when potholes get up .
also some parts of interior roads are on have a steep incline. so its maneuverability should be decent.
the purchase if it happens will be 4- 6 months down the line where dad would do the occasional weekend visit there.
so looking under with the considerations and the proposed tax in sight what would you peeps suggest me to?
as of now considering the ford figo, swift vdi ,ritz vdi, and vista.
anything i am missing here?![Confused [confused] [confused]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Confused.gif)
