Well ,i kept the OHC 1.5 exi (type 2) for nearly one and half years and man let me tell you i had a terrible time with that car ,mainly coz of the unsettled, harsh ride (though, no doubt about the faboulous engine) !

The build quality of the car was even worse then those of the koreans !!! I mean , on smooth roads it was ok but as soon it was on a rough road(majority of indian roads) you could easily realise it , as it used to make noises from the dash board and mainly from under the body which you could feel and hear(loud and clear) while driving , even if you had put cotton in your ears !!!
Seriously, one of the WORSE SUSPENSION i ve ever come across . Would you believe it , my palio(half the price of OHC) rides much better than that .

In short what i mean , What is a car without comfort ??? A BULLOCK CAR(T) !!!

If a car costing 8.5 lacs(OHC) cannot provide you the smooth ride , comfort , noise free interiors ,then is of no use ,irrespective of the power train , the looks , the brand !!!

SAME IS THE CASE WITH CORROLA (elder sister of the OHC) .
