[mohitmanaktala]

Dear friends,

I am using a hyundai Accent gle for past one year ... i have a daily runnig about 50-70 kms ... i am looking in for a substitute of accent as i find it not fun to drive... i love driving and so want a car which is more driver centric.. My budget is max Rs 8.0 lacs... Previously i owned a swift vdi which found more comfortable than accent ... KINDLY ADVICE WHICH CAR WOULD BE A GOOD FUN TO DRIVE CAR WITH ADEQUATE PICKUP AND GOOD FUEL EFFICIENCY...

Palio 1.6 Sports - If you are looking for a petrol car.

Hi Mohit,
If you promise not to shout at us again, I am sure there will be many people advising you here.
Since you have not mentioned any other requirement, I can tell you the the Ford Fiesta 1.6 is a drivers car. A.S.S is expensive though.

For your daily running it would workout to around 2000km p.m. ( as per 50-70km daily usage). I would suggest you to go for a VERNA CRDI. Amazing power. Im sure it wont disappoint you. One suggestion do go with the ABS.
Cheers!

I second verna crdi. It will be easy on your pocket too, and its a hoot to drive.

I agree with TSK's choice. Put some strut braces on the Verna and you have a reasonable solution to aid its cornering as well - increasing the driving experience.

Hi Mohit,

Nothing to beat the verna crdi boss, get the verna with ABS and your good to go.

Mohit since your budget is set at 8 lakhs max, I think the verna crdi with abs would cross that budget.
In my opinion you should go for the Getz crdi same engine as the verna and would come to about 7 lakhs on road leaving you with atleast 1 lakh to pimp up your ride.
Believe me when i say this, the Getz with a pete's box is like a pocket rocket.

if you want petrol then fiesta 1.6 and if you want diesel then verna crdi.. fiesta has a better driving dynamics than a verna anyday.. fiesta 1.6 is a hoot to drive and the handling is in a league of its own..

buy the verna my friend and be happy its a lovely car

[iraghava]

If he doesn't need the boot then why not the Getz CRDi?

[aman345]

buy verna crdi sx if it fits your budget it has lovely interior

[ramie2400]

why not soup up your current car install a sports steering wheel bucket seats and some engine mods with upside wheels and a good ICE..sure it will make your drive pleasurable

AFAIK,accent is good car to drive and have good speeds too

[vkochar]

I agree with Ishan .. If you do not need a boot then Getz CRDi is the hottest hatch you can get. Spend a Lac on the getz and get it pete'd and Install some alloys and fatter rubber. Wow !!!

Wow..big missile hitting there. Agree that verna CRDI is a good engnine. Not the car. How about a turboed Swift LOL? Verna with alloys (for fatter tyres or the FUN may become slightly dangerous) pete's box etc will cost more than 8.
