I have been searching for a pre-owned automatic car for my wife. She currently commutes through cab/auto. Came across 2 listings on Olx. Both listings are by owners.

Listing 1: Honda Amaze 2016 S AT (pre-facelift) with 1.10 Lakh km on the odometer. Ask is Rs 4.25 Lacs. The deal can get closed at around Rs 3.5 Lacs

Listing 2: 2019 VX CVT with 32K on the odometer. List price is Rs 7.7 Lacs. The car is in warranty till Nov 24.

Which option should I go with? And, how much should I offer to for the second listing?

Location of listings: Noida

You should go with the second option, i think around 7 lakhs will be a fair price also get the vehicle inspected at an ASS and check the service records and insurance claim history.

Getting a used X1 (xdrive) - 2016 made, 2017 March registered. 50K odo done for 18L. (First owner)

Getting directly from the dealer, he can get it under used car warranty for about 70K, but he said the warranty claims are handled by a third party and are treated like insurance claims - may get rejected.

The car will need new tires, full service history at the dealership.

Is it a good deal?

Total out the door looks close to 20L with the new tyres and warranty and registration.

Anyone has experience with this warranty?

The car won't be driven much - maybe 5k a year.

It's for the Mrs.

Dealer said that maintenance should average out to 50K a year.

Is this warranty provided by BMW or by some third party company with ties to the used car dealership? What's the point of paying upfront for a warranty that won't even give you peace of mind?

Yeah, it's provided by a third party, I'll get more details soon.

But is the price okay for a car of this vintage?

It would be a decent price in Kerala, Karnataka etc where the RTO taxes are very high. But in NCR, you have only 3 more years of life left with this car. There is nothing rare about a non-msport x1. It was BMW’s best selling model for years and you could probably find a better deal if you look around more.

Year - 2022 (Manufactured in Jan 2022, Registered in Mid Feb).
Warranty - 4+1 extended
Insurance - valid Upto 2024 (Zero dep with consumables)

On road price (including fancy number) - 18.6.

Please suggest the right price he can expect.

Thank you in advance.

Factor in around 15% depriciation on the on-road price.

Hi folks. In the market looking for a used 3 GT or 3 series petrol, 5-6 years old.
Found this listing on bmw certified (https://www.bmwusedcars.in/buy-used-...-gt/22039.html) though it’s also cross listed on OLX with date of posting as Dec-22. Any feedback on the condition / pricing and / or suggestions / ideas on how I can evaluate this car given that am in another city would be much appreciated. I checked out the service history and it seems to have denting painting and rear light change - so possibly an accidental case?
Thanks!

Hi guys,

I have my eyes on a 2019 Passat connect Highline which has done 91k. The plan is to replace my Rapid 2020 onyx diesel MT which has done around 45k KM with the Passat.

1) What should be the right price for the vehicle considering the discounts that it received in 2019? (I am based at Coimbatore, TN)

2) How is the reliability of the car over all? (in terms of the gear box, suspension and other electronics)

3) I plan to keep the car for about 5-6 years so is it recommended to buy a high mileage car? I do about 15k KM a year.

The adaptive damping suspension on passat is very expensive to replace and Passat in general is not a very reliable car, spares take a long time to reach and VW ASS isn't the best to start with. If there is no 6 Year 125 k Km extended warranty on it, i would steer way clear of the passat. I have seen one too many DSG Mechatronics failure on the passat which led to them becoming parts bin car.

I used to own a 2016 Jetta Diesel Manual which had the aforementioned warranty, I promptly sold it off a year before the warranty ran out. Mighty fine car both of them but not the best ownership experience.
Cheers.

Hi Folks,
I'm looking at a 2019 Manufactured 2020 Chennai Registered Nissan Kicks Diesel (Top of the line model - XV Pre O) which has run about 15000 Kms, the owner is asking
10.25 Lakhs for it and it has a 5 year warranty from 2020.

What do you guys reckon is a good price, considering not much resale value when i sell it after 3 years or so and the fact the owner (Very probable) got a minimum 2.6 lakh discount on it while buying. It cost 17.75 On Road Chennai, so minus the discount he probably got it for 15 Lakhs approx.

Is the asking price alright or should I negotiate?

A colleague of mine recently bought a X1 20d 2016 manufactured for 18 lakhs here in Mumbai - it has 55k on the odo. It was then the top end model. He spent close to 1.25 lakhs in getting the issues sorted out and is quite happy with the car. The used car dealer he bought the car from was a known reference. My colleague was saying that here in Mumbai X1s with other dealers were listed upwards of 23-24 lakhs.

You have not mentioned the engine here but ball park you are near the price quoted to my colleague - Delhi should probably be lower I think.

Hope this helps.

What would be the right price for a MH02 registered 2010 Ford Figo Zxi Petrol? Its a sparingly used single owner car with approx 12000 kms on ODO. The car is always serviced at Ford authorised service centre every year and insurance is valid till July 2023. Thanks in advance.

What should be offered for a '21 Audi A4 Technology? Most of the dealers are quoting an absurd 40+ for the car (brand new car left the floors at 43.5)
How is the depreciation calculated these days? Is there some sanity left in the market? Why would I buy a 2 year old car and become the second owner for 42, when I can get a new one for 50 (which is exaggerated itself).

What should I pay for a 2021 Hyundai Tucson GLS Diesel 4wd with 15000 kms on it, no visible dents or scratches, no insurance claims and has extended warranty of 5Y 140000 Km. Dealer is quoting 23 Lakhs.
