Hi Guys

I've been stuck with the same confusion as mohit on this thread. I drive a 2001 accent and I want a driver's car upto 8 lacs. My daily run is 25kms max but I like to go out on the highway once in a while(once in three months). I have narrowed down on the palio 1.6 and the fiesta 1.6

I want a car that I will keep and cherish for many years because I like to take care of my machine and I think it's a lot of fun to drive a through different phases of a car's life cycle. By driving an old accent I have learnt a lot about cars in general.

I almost booked the palio but the only thing that stopped me is that it doesn't have safety features like airbags or abs. The downside with fiesta is that I don't need the boot I mostly drive in the city and I mostly drive alone.

Should I spend the extra money and go for fiesta because of abs and airbags or should i buy a palio and save the remaining money for fuel and A.S.S.?

Please give me some advise that will help me decide. I'm utterly confused.
