- Which are the main problematic areas of Zen ?
- Will there be any shortage of spare parts for the next 3-4 years after the Estilo launch ?
- Is it always better to go for the MPFI models ?
- I've heard that the 1st MPFI version is having 55 BHP & the last model is having 60 BHP. Is that true ?

1.Problematic areas--steering wobbling due to old tyres or poor balancing,improper suspension(lower arm is not as strong as the Esteem),poor a/c and pick up on the old carb models
2.MPFI is anyday a better bet particularly in large cities.I don't know if Cochin allows carb cars to be registered now.
3.Zen spares would be available for many years..after all Premier Padmini was out in 1996 but spares are freely available even now.So you can safely bet on five years
