Dont forget to read about the other options in the market.

Although i too am in favour of baleno, its helps when you know all the competition and their merits and demerits.

But in 3 lacks you have better options that baleno and accent i guess

LPG for daily use so that I can save up money for the TC

Go for the Baleno out of the two. Its a better car than the Accent IMO. And for heaven's sake if you wish to add an LPG kit and need a boot please buy a Tata Indigo!

good luck hunting gopz! i've been looking for a used baleno for quite a while now.....my budget is also 3L. i am not sure about bangalore but in chennai there are NO well maintained baleno's for that price!

i have tried all sources....dealers....private owners....etc.

if possible i would recommend you increase your budget to 3.5-3.8L where you can get a 2003 VXI in reasonably good shape.

But if you do find a good baleno for under 3L.....just go for it! it took me less than 20 mins to fall in love!~

Baleno is prefered choice in given options better performance and support.

Good luck
