Cars Q&A

Question
Dear Mr. Shankar, I am a media professional, heading a vertical of one of the very respective internet media company. I am indeed very impressed with your Portal for providing the impressive reviews and auto news from automobile industry hence when I have to go for a new diesel car, I seek your advice. I have listed down the shortlisted diesel models along with my points, I would appreciate if your could help me finalise one as soon as possible. 1. Ford Fiesta EXI - I like this car in all angle moreover it also fits in to my budget but my worries are after sale service, spare cost (as I have heard & read that they are expensive, etc) and resale value. 2. D'zire - Well I am not very convinced with the shape of the car however, just because its Maruti and service seems to be much cheaper and resale is better, I am considering this. 3. Tata Manza - It seems to be a good car though I haven't test driven it so far and price wise also, it's cheaper (compare to fiesta & Verna) however, Is it worth buying this new baby and how about after sale service, spare cost and resale value. 4. Hyundai Verna - It's little expansive one however, if it's a very good car among all of them and has Good after sale service, less spare cost and good resale value then I can try to stretch my budget for it. Also, you may please feel free to highlight any other point about the above mention cars in your revert. I would sincerely appreciate your valuable suggestions at the earliest. Best regards, Diwaker

Hi Thank you for the feedback
Inthe options mentioned Fiesta and Verna are good in performance but maintenance cost is comparitively high. SwiftDzire solves th epurpose as a entrylevel sedan.As mentioned, Manza promises much with its specifications, style etc, it takes a while toknow its onroad performance.
For the preferences recommended to test drive Fiat Linea Active.It has the best combination of power and style and cost effectiveness.
