Was having this discussion about the underbody plates of the fourth generation yesterday. Its a plastic plate held by plastic clips. If it's similar for the third generation, not much difference with or without it. You will need to take it slow over bad patches of road.

That said, I doubt if Etios comes with underbody protection either! Does it?

Not to mention all the additional hassles and running around to get the RTO formalities completed.

I see similar cars with asking price of 5-5.5L here. The owners may come down to reality once the car stays unsold for a long time.

Yes, RTO hassles are the biggest hurdles. If the RTOs were transparent, carried out the processes efficiently and refunded the road tax promptly after re-registering in another state, buying used car from neighbouring states would be the best move for KA people.

In such a case the car in the previous post could be had for ~3.9L :(

Haven't gone the online way. But shall scan it that way too. My search is limited to one dealer in my city and in the cities of Aurangabad and Pune.

No, I'm not sure if the Etios comes with the underbody protection. Actually, addition of these plates and a dashboard camera are the two mandatory additions I'm going to do on any car that I buy. That said, if the City comes with plastic plates, I'm sure I can add metal plates!

The same thought crosses my mind when I look at prices in Mumbai. For a car that is ~5-year old, you need to 75% of 14% of invoice value (assuming invoice value is less than 10L). See this: http://rto.kar.nic.in/KMVTA%202010.pdf

For a Linea, I think the tax would be around 1L. Add transport plus the hassle of arranging for NOC etc, and decide if it is worth pursuing.

Yes! I visit Jalgaon every year for a month or two, there are hardly any great used car dealers in the town there. I would highly recommend you to scan online. You might end up finding a decent car in Aurangabad, Pune or even Ahmednagar in that case. Moreover, Etios Petrol would be an easy find in Pune.

How much can my barely used 2013 VW Vento Comfortline diesel fetch? This has done just 16000 kms and is in showroom condition with close to a year of extended warranty left. Original VW alloys and front air dam & fog lamp chrome lining (from VW, whole set) as in the Highline version are the lone additions.

Carwale is quoting 8.07
T-Bhp / IBB is quoting 6.63 - 7.25
Orange book is quoting 6.17 - 6.55
Das Auto at my place is quoting just 5.5
Das Auto at another place quoted 6.5 a month back
A broker is ready to take it for 6

I'm grossly clueless with this wide range. Can some one help me out.

What was the on-road price you bought in?
As per the quotations you have received, I would suggest stick to the quotation provided by Team Bhp and Indian Blue book, both have suggested the right price.
Do not expect it to sell for around 8 lakhs as the vehicle is already 3 years old now!
I would suggest push the broker further and strike a deal for around 6.50-6.75, 6 lakhs suggested by him is quite low but then he is trying to milk in more commission by selling it for around 6.5 - 7 lakh mark. Do posts adverts online, will help you fetch the desired deal or even more.

Hi, So people seem to reply to this thread, have a query. Hopefully we are to get a new car (1.6 S-Cross but being delayed a lot now)

I have a 2008, Swift Dzire Zxi, Dark Grey in colour. Run 30,200kms till date, no accidents and a 50% NCB on the insurance. Well maintained, a new set of tyres put on it at 18,000kms (time takes its toll on rubber).

Team-BHP says 3.10lacs, NEXA Buy Back says 2.40. How much should I expect?

Yeah, no way it can fetch 8 or even 7.5 but it is tough to decide on a sell-able price with so much varying reports. As you said, I should be looking for anything from 6.5.

It costed 10.5 on road 3 years back.

[vishusingh]

Hey guys, how much should I ask for my i20 i-gen?

Model - 2012 Asta 1.4 CRDi (White)
Registration - Delhi
Odo - 60k

Michelin tyres installed at around 50k, they look in perfect shape as of now.

No dents, minor scratches on bumpers (delhi traffic..sigh)

Team BHP price check says 4.9 - 5.4

Anything around 2.6 lakhs to 2.9 Lakhs would be a good deal! That too because your car is well maintained though the value has decreased due it's high age.

6.5 - 7 lakhs would be quite decent for 10.5 and a 3 year old vehicle.

Rightly said by Team - bhp, anything around 5 - 5.3 Lakhs would be a great deal for your i20 CRDi and as you said, the tyres where changed recently, something 5.15 - 5.30 lakhs would be pretty good deal for the vehicle. The rest depends on your vehicle's mechanical conditions, if that's not in order then expect something around 4.75 to 4.85 Lakhs!

What should be decent price for Honda Brio S (O) MT, bought in August 2012 odometer 28000 kms? Car is in good condition barring few scratches.

I am looking for a good drivers car in Bangalore and most of the online quotes including Team BHP is unrealistic. I feel awkward to ask the buyers the actual value. Don't want to go the dealer route but seems I will be forced to :(

[zaheer5776]

Coincidently I m looking for a used Vento. I found many Ventos on internet and 2013 models are available from 5.5 L to 6.5 L range. I happened to miss a Parsi Owned 2013 Vento registered in 2014 which was available for 6.25 L on cartrade.com. THe guy called my twice as he didn't want to give it to dealers. But due to engagement with work I couldn't make it on time to check the car. And it got sold.

The basic re-sale value of Vento in other states varies from 5.5 to 6.5 L range, though down South it's always going to be a lakh above overall as consumers there have to pay higher taxes than us increasing the vehicles value. I was shocked a few days back when a relative told me the Etios Petrol base variant costs around 8 Lakhs on-road Bangalore whereas it's around 7 lakhs on-road Calcutta.
