Hello everyone!!
This is Raghu from bangalore.

To live I code .
My hobbies are test driving cars in India. I used to do this when I stayed in US, as the chances of driving beamers and mercs is 100%.

I have driven all the new cars in the B / B+ segment. Have varied opinions about pretty much everything. Actually speaking I had a tough time in settling for one as I sold my zen and Indica DLS.

Yesterday I settled for Swift Vxi. Hopefully I have made the right choice.

Will be writing about my test drive experiences and dealer experiences pretty soon.

"Arise,Awake Stop not untill the goal is reached"

Cheers!! and drive safe.

Totally agree!

Welcome to the forum and do familiarize yourself with the rules and regulations.

I feel its going to be altogether a different driving experience in India than in the states. Swift is a pretty good choice. DLS is not meant for personal use ! may be g ood for a company and a taxi ! sorry about the same. Zen its too small if you are used to 6 / 8 cyl powerful machines !

Hi, RAghu,

Welcome to T-BHP. So one more buy from Bangalore.....U will enjoy commnicating with people here. Swift is a good choice. But would have appereciated if u had gone for DDiS......Yeah, I know the waiting time.....6 months here. Nevertheless, VXi is also a good choice. Do share ur experience about the Vxi & preferably the dealer experience....
