Are you the one who belongs to school of thinking as per whom a medium class person does not deserves a car?

@bits I would say look at Santro/Wagon R, you can also look for the Wagon R Duo model.

I am of the school that says cycling is a heck lot cheaper and faster(depending on city) of getting from A to B
go buy an uber alienware lappy with the leftover money :p

^^^ WTF mate?
What makes you think 4L will not get him a decent car?
There are several very capable cars available for under 4L OTR

And you can use that alienware lappy to optimize route between point A to B using bicycle :rofl:

I agree with you if this is a serious advise.
If you want a cheapest maintanance, you have first choice Maruti, second is Maruti and third Maruti.......
If you are single and want to enjoy life , get a new 800 or an alto. Only petrol.
these should serve you minimum 10 years if you are a good driver...

[Praks]

Agree with Anand,

Cheapest maintenance - Maruti,

[Poga]

Err.. another option is..since it seems you want great bang for your buck...wait for the first quarter 2010...some good options are lined up...micra maybe (its nissan so ageing will be slow)...else go for ritz or alto (ritz looks better tho)..if u wanted to use it for 3 yrs i would have suggested spark...its a fun car and comes with 3 yrs maintence...but then its a chevy.

Alto is your best bet bro and you will get the top end model at a price of ~rs2.95lacs ex-showroom and you know how good their service is but seeing that so many new cars are new in the market then i10 is very good you can go for that too, and yes A-star also.

See what suits your style and likings :hap2:

Which is of these two is better Chevy Spark v/s Maruti A-Star.

Only city driven by lady and senior citizen to be converted in to the CNG from day 1.
