See the picture and notice the difference.

The buyer should definitely opt for extended warranty if possible.

You are right about the Kompressor badge. I don't see it listed against the CDI versions. So it has to be a C220 CDI BE then. And the C250 still seems to show up on the Merc India website.

If the car is in immaculate condition then about 6.5/6.7 is a good price. But do negotiate. It's a buyers market out there. I'm sure he'll drop a few thousands.
First thing to do is take it to the Hyundai ASS or a well known garage and get the car thoroughly checked before making a move.

Hello Viana,

If you are very sure that the car is in real good condition, you can offer Rs. 6 to Rs. 6.4 lacs for 2012 i20 Diesel Sportz variant with 8,000 kms on ODO.

Just ensure that there is a valid reason with the owner for selling the car & the complete service history is available with no cliam bonus on insurance policy (If the policy is renewed once).

Thanks,

[lightinin95]

Hi Guys,

Cheers, Sam

There is no Hypo info on the Smart Cards in KA. You can check the insurance papers since it would be mentioned on that if there is a Hypo.
I was at the RTO today in fact to check what documents are required to terminate the hypo.
In case someone needs to know:

-Smart Card/RC book- Original
-Form 35
-NOC from financier
-Fees paid challan

Insurance and Emission certificate copies.

Regards

I suggest retaining the car. Most of the people nowadays repel when you mention Petrol car.
Thanks to our ever increasing petrol prices.
If you want to get rid of it it should fetch somewhere around a lakh, max!

Not sure if this actually qualifies as a price check point but here goes.

We just booked an i20 in Gurgaon; the dealer valued our Zen at 90,000.

The particulars are:

'05 Zen LXi
No accident/damage
Tyres were stock
Battery is 3 years old
Very regularly serviced, so no major repairs coming up

I wonder if they actually look at all these things (beyond damage, battery, tyres). We also got a 10,000 exchange bonus.

Hope this helps. I sold my zen vxi, 2004 model for 2.1 lacs in September 2012 . (I paid 3.9 lacs in 2004 onroad) this was sold to seller directly, I asked for 2.25,and ended up with 2.1 lacs. If your zen is non estilo model, there are die hard fans of pre estilo models.

Dealers will most likely offer you anything between 30-50K max I suppose. If you can manage a direct customer and sell it off for anything between 50k-100k than it will be great deal.

Congrats on booking a new car
Maruti and Hyundai cars retain a very good resale value as i know. Tata cars on the other hand is a whole different story. There are many post 2002 Zens in Maruti's true value yard in Mangalore. Starting price is from 1.5 lakh.

Hi all, I am on the lookout for a used car at around a budget of 2 lac in Bangalore. During my search i see a lot of ford ikons (petrols) under this budget mostly 2004 ~ 05 models. Is this a good buy or should i avoid? My usage will be mostly at around 600 kms/month and i want a reliable easy to maintain car. Please suggest.

My brother in law had exact same situation( in Bangalore). 2005 model Kerala registered zen lxi. Replacement car was the i20. Was valued at 85000. We felt that was an extremely low evaluation. One reason quoted was the Kerala registration. We took it to Kerala where it was registered and sold it for 1.6 lakhs within a day. I myself sold my 2003 model zen lxi in 2011 for 1.5 lakhs.That too I was 2nd owner and I sold to true value. I think your car deserves a better price. Try selling it directly or via maruti true value. You should get a better price.

Note: all this is in Bangalore.

The biggest issue is - the car is MH-registered. And my folks would rather get less money for the car than have to worry about getting the registration transferred and how and who to sell the car to. Had I been there, I would have done all that; did do it when we sold off our Corsa. But, this time convenience was much more important.

Plus, the resale value of cars in NCR is low anyway.

But yea, I understand your point. The car would have fetched a lot more had it been True Value or an individual.
