vivek_pinkoo · 28th November 2007, 11:56

I have got a Matize (2002) and have to run and maintain it (for my wife) now my concerned is

1. are spares going to be an issue?
2. Regular service spares (Oil Filter, Air Filter etc.) are available as Service centres?
3. Is Body work possible since it required compete body paint.
4. Where I can get good service in NCR, specially in Gurgaon and Noida?

I have a 1999 Matiz in Mumbai, no problems with parts/ repairs since I go to an ex-Daewoo service centre. With number of Matiz cars dwindling, you should see parts availability as a problem in 1-2 years. At least in Bombay, Matiz cars have become a rarity. Body work is a routine job for any paint shop.

@ vivek_pinkoo:
spares: not sure about availability

air filter, oil filter : available

bodywork: piece of cake, can be done by any regular bodywork shop.

good service in NCR: no idea.

HI.. I own a 1996 ceilo and have no problems about avilibility of the spares. You can get Dwewoo spare part form a single nut to engine block, doors, silencer, tail lamps , head lamps ....... you name it , they have it in sector 16 car market in Noida! Most spares are resonabaly priced and carry "Made in Korea" tag.

As of now there is no spare parts problem in Metros, but in small towns, spare parts for Matiz is not available.

I have read somewhere that the Chevrolet is going to give support for Matiz through their service stations.

I would be thank full if you do so.

Now I am relieved person after getting so many positive response as far as spares are concerned.

But what about good body work? where I can get cheap and best service?

See, U have a good car and unless u have a lot of money to burn, please retain ur Matiz.
I too have a matiz and have found that service is not a problem.
All decent car mechanics do the basic stuff well.
Body work is indpendent of make / model.
Zen parts like ower arm etc can be fitten on Matiz.....verified from a damn good mechanic in Chennai
