I am planning to let go of my 2006 Dec Indigo LX which has done 64000 km. It has 4 alloys, central locking with engine immobiliser, Blaupunkt music system with 4 speakers. Normal big city scratches and dents (nothing major!). How much can I realistically ask for it?

Hello,

I feel you will not get more than Rs. 1.25 lacs for your Car. Considering the immediately required repairs worth Rs. 20,000 (new 4 tyres & removing dents)

Do you really need to sell this Car? I think you should convert it to CNG (if available in your city) & use it as city car for family.

Thanks,

Thanks Jignesh, now i atleast have some idea of the expected price.

The drive is not much and we are not thinking of diesel or running cost.
The only problem with the car is that it does not have a power steering and hence is difficult for my father to drive. So we are thinking of selling this and buying either ALTO800, Alto K10 or WagonR with a power steering.

Guys....my father in law who stays in mumbai is Planning to buy a used i10 that is registered in thane.
If it is registered in mumbai additional octroi has to paid. So we are Planning to register it in vada where they have a legal address. Yet the dealer insists on paying octroi which amounts to 2%

As far as i know vada comes under thane district so octroi isnt required.

Kindly advise guys

Hi Friends,
One of my close friends is looking to buy his first car. We are looking at Used cars in the budget of 2.5 to 3L in chennai. During the car hunt, I found that the Zen estilo to be the cheaper most used car in the Market. Able to see 2009,10 Zen estilos going for 2.2 to 2.5L that too from dealers. We were initially looking at i10,Wagon-R. But after seeing the ongoing prices for Estilos, My friend wants to go for it and save some money. My concern is, Whether estilo will be suitable for a first time car buyer? what should be the realistic price for estilo cars of 2009,10 Vintage? And, why such low price for a car from Maruti stable when other cars of the same stable commands a high resale value? Kindly chip in your inputs.

Estilo was never in demand (compared to other products from MS stable). A low demand of a new car translates to less demand in the used car market as well (few exceptions are there though), and less demand would mean lesser resale value too.

As a car, estilo is a wagonR with different skin, and is as good/ bad. If your friend is happy with its looks, no harm in going for it.

You could also look at Chevy Spark. Another case of low resale value which should benefit your friend.

Fiat Linea 2010 Emotion Diesel Model. It has clocked close to 50k and in good condition.
As per carwale, its current value is close to 3.3 lakhs. What do you guys think?

I guess 3.3 lakhs would be the dealer price here, 3.3 lakhs for a diesel car seems too low to me even though Fiat has a very poor re-sale value, but i guess if you manage to get an individual buyer the car can fetch you somewhere close to 4 lakhs, though if you are out to buy the vehicle, then 3.5 would be a decent enough deal !!

Good luck !!

Thanks bro for the suggestion. And yes, Spark is also a nice option. I'll suggest my friend the same.

Yes wada comes under Thane district. I dont think you need to pay any octroi for the transfer of the Thane registered vehicle. I think the dealer is trying to fleece you with that claim.
