indica xeta, is the car reliable?

dr_aryan · 13th September 2007, 21:17

so xeta is reliable.
what will you guys suggest me now that i have extended my budget upto 4.5 lacks and can go for even a swift ls model. should i go for xeta and save money or should i opt for swift?

drkhalsa · 12th October 2007, 20:31

I am interested in knowing the FE figures for both Xeta Models 1.2 and 1.4

Atleast one of the auto mag I have read states that both have same figures and even sometimes 1.4 can give more milage due to better low end torque and so more usage of higher gears!

Can people here advice about FE figures of the both as I am interested in buying one of them

thanks

13-14 consistent mileage in city, almost same on highway, full ac, fully loaded

I think its time to sell my wagonR now. 13-14 is too tempting! I get only 11

phamilyman · 13th October 2007, 21:16

he he, that is fine. but the chhoti chhoti niggles (in my other thread) can become a nuisance.

that being said, bhai uses it most under CNG mode, which embarasses my bike on a daily basis

and aajkal mom's alto has plainly refused to give anything over 11-12kmpl in any kinda driving so even she's fed up and just waiting for 10k km to fit CNG

Which one you suggest 1.2 or 1.4 as i am planning to buy within next 10-15 days as just waiting for hyundai PA.....!!

wolfinstein · 27th October 2007, 07:45

1.4 is better, incase FE will not be a major factor, The power in a 1.4 is amazing.

The 1.2 will make a good VFM buy since the FE is better by 2 KMPL approx, and then the 1.4 is available only in Top of the line GLX

phamilyman · 27th October 2007, 13:56

atleast the GLG 1.4 gives 13-14 consistently with pyaar mohabbat driving. Donno if GLX with 14 inchers has different mileage.

and even you're in delhi. put CNG and make bikewalas spite!

I have one query ?

I hope many of you have seen the popular AD - Dumb, Dumb...... of Xeta

I want to know what is the color of the car in it ?
is it Oceanic Blue ?
i have never seen Xeta like that nor in any showroom or even official website

or is it just for the AD special color

Interesting!!! in the start you were inclined to xeta and than were comparing between xeta and swift and at last decided to go for Palio 1.1 slx. It will be equally interesting to understand your thought process for this decision. can you spare few minutes to share that with us..

wolfinstein · 4th November 2007, 11:44

The colour is available since launch,Forgot the name though.

Hey Zappo,

Planning to buy a car shortly and with the great discounts , unbelievable cabin space and nice cheerfull beige cabin , i am quite inclined towards Xeta. But looking at a LPG variant.
Any info on that ?
How is the maintenance ?
Is the car built to last for half a decade if taken care of ?
Any idea on cost of spares ?
thanks,
Kedar
