U-Va, Getz, Zen-Estello or which car below 6 Lac - Team-BHP

paragindia · 15th May 2007, 14:38

I was driving palio for 5 years I sold it this this month.

I am looking for car:
- 50 KM daily running
- Driver drives on weekdays
- I drive on weekends
- 3-4 long trips in a year
- Budget is < 6 Lac

Which car shall I go for?

The Team-BHP favourite - Maruti Suzuki Swift. What else ?

50 kms a day !!! Why not look for a diesel?

SWIFT DIESEL should serve u well..

This time Palio Stile 1.6. After heavy discount it is 4.6 on road pune.

I thought it was: Fiat Palio 1.6 Sports!

Back to topic, the Car that comes close to Palio's features is: Aveo U-VA!
Test drive it & then decide.
Also check out Swift D, but I heard a huge waiting period of 3 - 6 months, so that may not be a good idea!

Pawan, Parag was driving a Palio before. He may have a reason not to look at Fiat again.

With a six lakh budget, there are a lot of things you can look at Parag. Let us know your needs in detail.

Yeah, you are right, it WAS.

But now it is the Swift.

I feel it is still: Palio 1.6 Sports!

We can have another poll if you want to?

What do you mean?
All those who recommend a Palio here, own a Palio!
Unlike some who have never driven/own a Palio, but would blindly recommend not to buy a Palio!

Since its both chauffer and self driven and considering long trips, Palio stile or Indica(go) may fit the bill. If you travel rear seat when chauffer driven, then I doubt Swift. Can the Estilo meet Palio in terms of ride quality?

Just that many members suggest palio while discussing but end up buying swift ..

I would say go for Getz(non prime) if you want a petrol car, and Swift DDiS if you want diesel.
