Folks,
I am a newbie to this forum and since this is my first post a little bit of introduction about me. I am from Mumbai and stay in Andheri. A daily commuter to work during peak traffic hours. I have been mainly considering the Swift or the Esteem but have not been able to decide firmly on one. some factors that I have been considering are -
Usage : I would be mostly using the car on the weekends on long drives. Commuting to work from Andheri would be a BIG NO except on a few rare occasions (I hope). I guess on an avg I would do 300 - 500 kms per month.
FE : This seems to work against the Swift. But would it matter much for the usage pattern above ?
Boot space : Esteem seems to have better boot spacce than the swift
Looks: Swift kills

Stability / Ground clearance : Swift seems to be better.
Budget : Around 5L. The cheaper the better
what do you experts think ?
cheers !
