Hi,

I've been looking to change my nearly decade old Zen for some time now, and have been getting confused with all the different choices, etc., but an incident last weekend on the way to Aurangabad seems to have made up my choice for me. As I came out of a curve, I found myself face-to-face with a lorry... slammed on the brakes, veered to the left and thankfully avoided the lorry, which had simultaneously moved back into it's lane.

So... I've decided to put safety first for my next purchase and have ended up deciding to go for Swift Zxi - because of it's good safety/crash rating, ABS and airbags, I feel that it is the safest choice in the small car segment.

I just wanted some opinions about my choice. I like to go for long drives... however I generally don't drive too fast, rarely exceeding 100kmph, and never above 120. But I learnt now that's it not all up to me :( and hence the emphasis on safety.

Thanks a lot in advance,
Amit.
