        Figo has great value for money. But the rear mirror cannot be fully retracted and its ground clearance is a major issue. Ritz I feel is a bit costly compared to Figo. But Factors like Maruti and its service will give u relief on the long run. Swift has very less head room in the rear. and very long waiting period. Don’t go for the beat diesel as…[Read more]

        if your nt in a hurry, book and wait for the swift.
        swift gt te perfect blend of performance, low maintenence cost and fun 2 drive factor.

        With all due respect , who ever said maruti vehicles r cheap to maintain, especially diesel vehicles. and how come the figo is not even on the chart, having owned both figo and swift, I’m happier with the figo.

        Maruti Ritz VDI is best option for you Ashish. The headroom. legroom and the comfortness are unbelivable and it has the airodynamic shep and because of that the you will get stability on the road at the time of driving. The ground clearence is higher than other cars and the tyer size is aslo more it also help to creat stability on road. And…[Read more]

        FORD FIGO, suits his requirements.
        Also you’ve forgotten the Micra, reports of 25+ kmpl have been trickling in. It’s worth the premium.

        As pointed out by fellow mates..Ritz Vdi with ABS would be the best available option. Secondly I’d prefer a Hyundai i20 mainly because of it’s looks and interior plastic quality which is excellent, saying that would add that looks are subjective. And BTW if your heart wants a Swift go ahead with it and make no compromises.:)

        I suggest u go for Figo the best value for money car! All cars have its own disadvantages but when your looking for a car wherein u wont be shedding out a lot of mny and also longer waiting periods go for figo it surely has a better legroom than ritz and better looks than ritz or beat!
