looks like spirit has maintained the same interiors as in Elegance.. but that BIG steering wheel is such an eye sore..and its still missing the climate control for this class!

Well the car is very good to drive in the city. Visibility is good and this is one of the few cars in which you can see your bonnet from inside. The steering is light at slow speeds and easy to manoeuvre. It's not as light as the honda city's. The ground clearance is very very good, no problem fully laden on any bumps. Theres ample torque from the 2L engine and you dont have to keep shifting down a gear. It's happy in 3rd gear at slow speeds.

On the highway it really excels. It doesnt have the problem as the verna and honda city of being excessively bouncy over undulations on the highway. No pitching at all very stable. The steering weights up nicely and you can easily maintain your line over turns. The suspension over bad roads is again very good and one can sail over them easily.

Mileage I havent got an exact calculation but as you can see 15.5kmpl after 550kms with 200kms in city and 350kms on highway.

Sorry for bumping up an old thread. Thanks to everyone who helped me. I booked a Manchester Red Cedia Sports yesterday. Didn't like any of the colors in the Select/Spirit so went in for the Sport. Delivery is scheduled for the coming week.

Vid already posted some nice pics of his black cedia, lovely looking car. But, IMO, the yellow one looks even more attractive

The styling of the car grows on you. As you keep seeing it more you really admire it. I dont know if you noticed but the sports has an extended front bumper which makes it look really good. the sports lengths is longer than the spirit/select because of the front bumper.

It's one of the few low slung cars left in the market. Nowadays all are hunchbacked cars.

Congrats reignofchaos, I'm sure youll love the car and in red colour sports model she looks hotttttttttt.

Enjoy.

Good buy. The 'styling' is something I am yet to come to terms with, but thats a personal opinion. Its a very chuckable car which doesnt disappoint in the power department - seems very eager even if not class-leading.
