Swift or Getz or.... Fiesta?

Hi folks,

I am new to this forum and have read up as much as I could in the last three hours. And I must say that I am now far better informed as well as far more confused.

It will be great if you could provide your thoughts on my choices.
I have narrowed down to the following: Hyundai Getz 1.3 GLX, Maruti Swift Zxi, Ford Fiesta 1.4 (Petrol) Zxi <-- The last one is a bit above budget (which is 6 lacs) but the test drive was awesome! :-)

I plan to drive mostly in the city (Pune) and quite frequently to Mumbai (On the MPE). Very rarely on other highways.

For me the following are of key importance (in order):

1. Driving experience (Both in city and on highways, with AC)
2. FE
3. After sales experience
4. Passenger (rear) seating comfort
5. Resale value

I am more inclined towards the Fiesta, but want to know whether spending that 1 lac extra is going to be worth it. I haven't heard or read the best about Ford dealers in Pune.
