Don't offer more than 15 Lakh.
Logic : It's a two year old (by RC) car now and soon to be 3 years old + BS4 version

Typically, cars depreciate ~35% (from ex-showroom price) in 2 years. Considering the ex-showroom price of compass limited 4x4 to be ~21.5, it comes around 14.

Add max 1 lakh to it since this is coming from a dealer.

Remember, it very tough for the dealer to for find a buyer willing to buy a pre-owned car for 15lakh that too in end of year.

Also, a Honda dealer offered 12Lakh for 2017 Limited Diesel with 13k when my uncle asked for a exchange deal. So, your offer won't be far off.

All the best

I think that's on the higher side. 35% from On road price is more realistic.

Thanks! I was thinking of offering 15 lacs myself. I also have my Nov 2015 manufactured (Jan 2016 Reg.) Scorpio S4+ to exchange. Any idea how much I shall be looking to get for it. ODO stands at 46k, extended warranty till Jan 2020.

Guys, looks like BS6 diesel will not go well with BS4 diesel engines, whereas in case of petrol it should be fine, as there is not much difference in the composition of BS6 and BS4 petrol.

In case of diesel, the reverse is also not going well. There have been reports of the BS6 Seltos throwing check engine light on BS4 diesel.

Not sure if anybody has tested the BS4 diesel engine with the BS6 diesel for a considerable mileage yet. The negative effects might be more pronounced on the bigger capacity engines.

Factor in these before considering buying BS4 new or used diesel cars.

For 50k why would you risk buying a vehicle driven harshly my many drivers?

If you are spending 17 big ones spend that .5 extra and buy a new one itself. Personally I woudnt risk it even if I get 1lakh discount on a demo.

This is already discussed here.

At this time, when Jeep is struggling to sell compass, moreover it's year end, 50k discount on last year's demo vehicle is laughably small. It's not enough even if the vehicle was just standing for the whole year.

Demo vehicle and No miles seem like a joke, for sure they would have reset it (or did you mean low mileage? heard of some weird combo that used to exist to reset, maybe they will be able to do it at dealer level when is used below 200 kms, not sure how many times)

15-20% discount is what I would expect, since for sure it is a used 2018 vehicle.(bargain showing the price of resale 2018 models)

Demo vehicle in showroom and not test-drive vehicle. I think I might have confused everyone here. Apologies.

Same response as above. Also included 80k worth genuine Jeep accessories. So the Math is as below

New 2019 Sport variant after discount 18.35 - No Accessories

Old 2018 Sport Variant 17.8 plus 80k worth accessories. I managed to push it to 17.35 but not confirmed booking yet.

A 2017 Hexa XTA 6 seater is available for Rs 12.5 lakh. 43000 kms. First owner. The owner runs a Tata Motors showroom. How to find out if the vehicle was used as a demo car?

About the car itself, it is innsilver color, and appeared very dull to me. Since this is the first Hexa I saw in this color, I don't know whether the color itself is dull, or it's due to poor maintenance. Looking at the car I felt that this color doesn't suit at at all.

Hi Friends,

Been hunting for a good fortuner since last 2 months and have seen alot of them. Mostly odo is tampered or too much run and not maintained well enough for the liking. Few genuine ones are priced very high.

I had come across the below and finally the dealer was asking for 14.50L for specs as follows.
https://www.olx.in/item/toyota-fortu...iid-1544879943

Toyota Fortuner : 2012 Automatic 4x2.
Kms Done : 84000 kms ( claims to be with genuine service records )
Single Owner
Insurance : Comprehensive.

I had intially offered him 12L, then stopped on 13L, and he has come down to 13.75L. (this is after taking test drive which i found good).

What should be best price to be offered for same? As only after negotiating i would be sending the vehicle for complete scanning at the Toyota workshop and on clear report proceed with the deal.

Looking forward for expert advise on above.

Thank You In Advance.

A good fact is that it is not a NCR registration. Usually, these SUV's are not owner driven. Employed drivers do not handle them very well in most cases. Please check out as to whether it was owner driven?'The 84,000 km on odo is OK. Please check the year and month of the tyre manufacture for each tyre, including stepney and this may give some clues about it's use. Also, please check the driver's seat for wear and tear vis a vis the front passenger seat. The tyres (wear and tear pattern) and wheel rims give good clues of good and bad use.

Introduced in 2009, and thereafter with some additonal features/ options incl auto transmission wef 2012, this is the first generation Fortuner (in India). The second generation Fortuner (of 2015) came along in India November 2016. Hence, as the model is already one generation old and as the newer model has already done three years (half life), you could bargain further for the price. And these companies make available spares for a limited number of years (it should be 10 after the model's discontinuation) but many don't adhere to the norm.
