Cars Q&A

I think you should not go for used ford cars as they have very high maintenance cost. And average of 1.6 is generally low around 9-10.

You have not mentioned if its a diesel or a petrol version. If it is petrol version just forget it. Diesel 1.8 Zxi ikon is the best in the lot. I owned one for 2 years. On highways (made a RT to Bangalore from Hyd) - it gave 20 plus km to a litre, in the city 12 -14 kms/litre

aveae is near about 13 to 15 and you ust buy only petrol a very nice car once you use you find it batter

hi
ford ikon is very good at perfomance,but very high at maintenance,low mileage totaly no resale value.it is better if you have any other choice

I have ford icon 1.6 year 2002..milage is about 12 to 13 km per hour maintenance cost is high but low maintenance..best car for highways..2002 model should cost 1.75 lacks if in good condition..

The Cost could be 1.5 lakhs only. Ford is a good car.

hi these is vahid here icon is sports car youngster love the car . the second hand give the less milegage but the speed lover alway love the ikon . on road it give mileage upto 12 n on city gives 10

Hello there,

Icon basically as such is a good performing vehicle provided maintained well. There's hardly any maintenance except for the fuel consumption / mileage. For a 1.3 flair, mileage varying anything between 9 kms to 11.5 kms within city limits & on highways anything between 11 to 14kms should be great. Since you are planning for 1.6, milage should be slightly less as the power is more. Ideally should vary a 1-2 kms compared to that off 1.3 flair, subject to engine condition. Also note, that these are designed to perfrom with Air Conditioners. So you should not be worrying much about the fuel consumption with A/c on. As the drop in mileage is bear minimum. Nothing more than a kilometer. Apart these facts, there aren't any issues as for I've noticed. Besides service is done every 20,000 kms / 6 months at Ford service centers. Oil top up along with replacement of filters are done once a year or as and when required.. So the service/maintenance expenses should be arround Rs.5000/- per annum It's almost 3 years ever since i have been using. Honestly speaking am happy with the performance.. If at all you are more cautious about mileage, I would then strongly recommend you to consider the new Ford 1.4 Flair (Deisel version). This new Deisel version has a great engine same as fiesta and performance is also simply fabulous. Hope this feedback to be fine.
