RC has committed position. Wrist ki mom sis in a week (gym join karna padega to sustain). Duke 390 is hooligan.

Ninja 650 wud b best, but 5.47lac otr pune hai. Ninja 300 pricing is not good, but it has slipper clutch i think. Duke 390 best.

 

Else jump to street triple or z800

 

Next jump directly to zx10r

or zx14r (total road domination)

Gayabusa is puuraana maal, no updates frm a zero RnD corporation to it. No traction control. No power modes. It only gets aftermarket parts love. Bekaar hai wo.

Guys Need some advise(again) in finalizing few deals that i came across.

I am looking for a used car around 2-3L range and primary reason for that is

(1) So that myself and my wife can learn to drive instead of experimenting on new one

(2) Don't want to go for a new one. Because if i want to buy a new one, i would only go for i20/polo . But we don't want to go for a new one because there is a chance that we might go out of country for a while in the next 1 year. And do not want that new shiny car sitting around doing nothing. And also scared of giving it even a tiniest of scratches :P

 

So decision has been made to go with i10. If the condition is very good, it would be a keeper as well in future. So not considering resale value etc at this point.

 

Currently have the below options. Please advise

 

Option 1:

Grey i10 Magna with ABS/Sunroof etc (2008 limited edition version)

ODO: 66000 Kms

1.1 L iRDE engine

Condition : Decent with minor dent on the back of the car. New tyres

FinalPrice: 2.9L - 3.0 L (carwale valuation at 2.8L for good condition)

Have to get it checked at showroom but assume no major problems

 

Option 2:

Beige i10 Asta with ABS/Sunroof etc (2008 version)

ODO: 41000 kms

1.2 L Kappa engine

Condition : Interiors are very good but exterior there are lot of minor scratches which i feel we can get rid of.

Final price: 3.2L - 3.3L(carwale valuation at 3.0 for good condition)

Yet to get checked at showroom but assume no major problems

 

Option 3:

White Ford Fiesta ZXI 2007 model

ODO - only 35000 Kms

1.4L engine

Conditioin: Very well maintained car overall

Final Price : 2.5-2.6L

Yet to get checked at showroom but assume no major problems

 

 

Please suggest which one seems a good deal. I want to go for the ford but as it is a sedan , just wondering if it will be problem/difficult to drive etc.

 

Also the prices are from Mahindra first choice so he would be giving 1 year warranty on engine / gear box etc for around 5K.

 

Thanks in advance.

Which gearless scooter would you most recommend? Activa?

 

I'll prefer second hand if the durability of the vehicle is good.

Who will drive it?. My wife has a Dio since 2yrs and apart from the mileage , it is the best gearless vehicle i have driven.

Excellent pick up and smooth drive.

 

So before going with the activa, try to do a test drive a DIO as well

Get the vespa

 

Pacifier get the Fiesta, it's a driver's dream car.

Few mins back called up that dealer to tell I am coming and he said it it is sold :( tough luck I guess. This is the second time such thing happened. May be I am too slow for making decisions . :P
