Forgive me if I am asking noob questions, what all expenses can i foresee in the near term for a vehicle done 65K. Tyers changed at 40K. How many more kms can i clock without hassles.

Any help on the above would be really helpful as we need to close the deal by tomorrow. One more info which i missed is the vehicle is registered in Bangalore. Thanks.

Friends,

A friend of mine is moving abroad by the end of this month. And he wants to sell his 9-month old, 13k run Mahindra Verito D6 (bought for 8.5 lakh in Aug 2012) off. Authorized resellers like Mahindra First Choice are quoting way too low (5.5lakh) for this vehicle.

What price can he expect?

Note that it's a Hyderabad-registered vehicle.

A 2008 LT with 76k on the odo was recently sold for 8.8L in Gurgaon. The car was in excellent condition. For Bangalore probably around 9.5L would be a fair price if buying from owner directly and if the car has full service history. Definitely check service history for the vehicle as 65k looks like typical dealer car mileage to me.

Hello Vikred,

That is very true about Authorized used car dealers. They offer really low price for used cars as their profit margins are higher.

If your friend's time schedule permits, suggest him to approach local dealers who may offer upto Rs. 6.4 lacs for this car & if he can find some direct buyers then the he can upto Rs. 6.8 lacs for his August 2012 Mahindra Verito D6.

Thanks,

Hello,

Rs. 4.5 to Rs. 4.6 lacs will be a good price for 2010 Ford Fiesta 1.6 Sxi with 27000 on ODO.

I will also suggest to have a look at 2009 / 2010 Maturi SX4 which will available in similar price band & is a much better car to own & drive.

Thanks,

Sorry for going OT. But I guess, you haven't driven a fiesta 1.6, drive one and you won't say the above statement ever!

Better car to own, sx4 yes, but when it comes to drive, fiesta trumps sx4 the by a huge margin.

Cheers,
Sameer

Thanks for your inputs Jignesh. On the SX4 comparison, I would go with Sameer's take - the Fiesta is a much more fun car to drive.

Hello SPEEDY_RACER,

Would you really like to buy a 8 year old Ford Icon?
The price you have offer is good. Do not offer him more than Rs. 1.2 lacs. Also since you are based in Banglore & the car is registered in AP, hope you have considered the cost of getting it transferred in your name.

Hello SlowRider,

You can expect maximum of Rs. 90,000 / 1,00,000 for your car if you manage to get a direct buyer.
Used car dealers will not offer you more than Rs. 75,000 for your 2002 Hyundai Santop LP with 1,16,000 kms on ODO.

Thanks,

Was there anything special about the 1.3 ikon? Anyway I think you are being really generous in quoting such an amount for the car let alone for the car and where it is registered. Drop the offer and walk away. The owner might call you unless he traps some poor soul

Is that really possible? The car is more than a decade old and the fact that it has crossed the 100000km mark and that it has 2 old tyres don't help it either. I would think a good adjusting of door panels (usually recommend that to most old cars to take care of vibrations), wash and interior cleaning could help in fetching about 75-80k SlowRider

SORRY I DON'T KNOW HOW TO MULTI-QUOTE FROM MY PHONE.

Hi Guys, Quick question - What will be the ideal buying price of 2008, 53K run Safari LX in Chennai? The vehicle seems to be in good condition, but is still running on original tyres.

I was offered a similar condition Safari (2008/LX/Single Owner/48k) for 4.3L in end March. By any chance it is Pear white with TNxxxx707?
