Re: Does buying a used Baleno make sense?

It will make more sense in getting a good Esteem or an Accent.

Both these sedans are CNG friendly.
Accent will be a good choice here.
Reasons being:
1. Good sedan size car with lot of space(cabin as well as boot). 5 of us traveled in Accent from Bangalore to Kanyakumari and back. Never did anyone feel uncomfortable or squeezed up.
2. Great Road handling. Even at speeds north of 100 kmph a very stable car with a good feel in the steering.
3. Good power. Did many trips at Ooty's famous hairpin bends. Never felt it short of breath and never had to look back over my shoulder.
4. Solid built. Even though its oriental by birth, something about it is European.

I know Esteem's been a great car too but, I personally preferred Accent. Somehow it felt a better car.

Have sat in Baleno and have drove it too but, did not feel that comfort and kick(not the wrong one) that I got with Accent.
