Yes we are hoping for the same. Will wait for some more launches like Octavia and XUV700 and then will finalize our decision by the festive season or the year end.

Thank you for the response

Guys,

I've seen a 2019 Ford Aspire Titanium Plus TDCI, which has run just 17k Kms and the seller is asking 7.5L, which is tempting!

The above-mentioned car is for my brother, who is willing to replace his 10-year-old Swift VDI, which has run 160k Kms!

Is 7.5L a good value for a 2-year-old car, considering the new price of this car is around 11L?

This is good price for the car. GO ahead

Why did the seller sell a 15 day old car? Something fishy??

Odometer reading 69000 Kms

I would say in the ball park range of 140000-150000. Reasons below

1. Discontinued car
2. Low selling Model
3. Low selling OEM with poor service support
4. 3rd Owner already
5. Car due for 15 year renewal in 4 years (if rules still allow for that in 2024)
6. Red Micra, is a not so hot color, especially in the used market

Dont know which variant is this, but I am assuming the above for top of the line variant.

Hi, how much should a Scorpio Getaway 4wd command. Car in question is 2018 model, first owner with nice alloys and 70% tyres. The overall condition of the car is good and the deal is directly with the owner. Asking price is 8.50 lakh.

Hi Friends,

I am trying to take a plunge into the luxury car segment. That would certainly be my dream come true if it works out.

Coming from a modest middleclass background and having driven simple, reliable cars like the Dzire (diesel), Celerio and Santro, I think I have done my homework and decided to take the plunge before it is too late (I am in the late Forties).

Can you please suggest basis the below info please?

KA registration- Audi Q3 - 2016 - Diesel Auto - Premium with Sunroof with 120K Kms on the odo. Single owner, direct seller and seller looks genuine and quite well maintained.

Questions -
1. Is 120K Kms too much for an Audi Q3 from maintenance and failure point of view?
2. Is 18.5 Lakhs a fair price?
3. Given the current scenario where the future usage will be less, is it good to wait for another 6 months? I know this will be a personal choice - but given the price looks good (not sure), should I take it right away?

Thanks.

Few red flags

1. German car with 1.2L on ODO is not a good idea. Unless you know the seller in person, know the car was taken care well, I would not even think of buying.
2. 18.5L for a 5 year old Q3 with 1.2L on ODO is high, that too for a model is not in sale anymore.
3. Audi has stopped selling diesel car in India, availability of parts might pose a problem.

If your running is low, may be a used X1 Petrol should be better option

Let's talk price first which seems very high.

Two Q3 Premium diesel variant cars were sold in my family. Both were 4-5 years old and regularly maintained at the Audi showroom. First one had run 60k kms, very well maintained and was sold for 16L. Second one had done 85k kms, decent shape and was sold for 12L. Both of these were OD registered cars and were sold there. KA prices would be about 5-10% higher for a similar run car.

In this case, 120k itself is high for a German car. Look for something which has done 50k at max.

And given the Covid restrictions, you can't drive/enjoy a car even if you buy it today. It's better to wait another 6 months. Meanwhile keep looking for good deals and you can take a plunge if you find a lucrative one.

I am not sure of your budget but there is one BMW X3, 2017 model - 28000 KM driven in Bangalore, for sale in classifieds.

Ex-showroom price was ~ 8.2L and OTR price 9.5 L. If condition is good, bargain and bring the price down to 7L (2 year old car with 25-30% depreciation).
