Cars Q&A

City is always the best choice in terms of look, power, economy and resale value

I suggest that you buy the new Honda city. Its a great car to drive & pratically Zero maintenance if looked after well.

honda city new will be an excellent choice if you stretch your budget a little
you will not regret buying it the only negative aspect is the ground clearance when there are 4 or more in the car. if you are careful you can negotiate the humps well with ease
fiat linea is also a good choice which is feature rich but personally i did not like the looks and it lacks the power punch
the option of a diesel car for economical reasons is justified only if you are driving more than 60 kms per day on an average
petrol vehicles are any day much smoother and cheaper to maintain than diesel vehicle in whatever latest form and technology

In my point of view & taking consideration of all your requirements FIAT LINEA is the best choice for you.

Hi
If u want a all in one package, beauty and brawn , look no further just go for Fiat Linea ! and its with in u r budget,
and none can beat it looks and performance.
All the best.

Fiat Linea looks good but its power is less compared to its body. Honda City is the good choice but has ground clearence issue if fully loaded. I have also driven Hundai Verna CRDi which comes in your budget and has a great driving comfort compared to Handa City. Seating comforts you can't get better than Honda city.

guys thnx a lot for your suggestions.
i had dropped the plan of linea as i was informed it costs more than 10lacs.
the main caution i was given was that it is fiat....xpensive spares, high on maintenance, less reliable.

hw about tata manza?

city is the best deal long term diesel maint is high and it covers up all ur savings so no poing.

besides city is the best in that class in terms of after sales service etc

safety feature wise also honda is better

guys i have shortlisted 4 cars as last options.
honda city, manza, linea & verna.
Owner of following cars & the experts plz suggest the best option keeping in mind cost, mileage, style, resale & maintenance.
i love honda city but its damn xpensive & its petrol with a just about ok mileage.

Honda City is a good buy-am getting 15.6-16 km/l locally & 19km/l on the highway-use the fuel flow meter & an eye on the RPM-(1800-2200)

Considering everything I feel, Honda City is the only option you have got. I don't agree that the car is not fuel efficient and that it is expensive to maintain. According to me it is easiest to maintain car amongst quality cars. The problem is that you won't get a diesel variant

wat about veto or scodararid in diesel version
