Congrats on your buy buddy. Do keep us posted.

Hey Bala,

Cedia Sports Onroad Price in Hyderabad is 11.53Lakhs however the dealer gave me a flat discount of 1Lakh for a 10 day scheme and a corporate discount of 20k.so overall price was great

But i had to withdraw my booking today coz Axis bank did not approve more than 65% loan on the on road proce of the car.They said Cedia has a very low resale value and incase if I default they would grab my car and sell it off to recover their money.Because of low resale value they wont be able to recover their money if they aprrove higher percentage of loan on it.They just playing safe  . These guys asking me to make a downpayment of 3 lakhs which i cant n I wont.

moreover my father came with me to the showroom today and he didnt like the rear seat.He said its too low seating with No thigh support and width of the seat is also too less for them to sit on the back for long trips.So i had to make up my mind as well.I cant just pay 10lakhs for a car which is only good for the driver and not for the passengers.

The only option left with me now is SX4 ,have read on Team-BHP that Maruti has improved the new SX4 on following points:

1)Rear Seat middle Hump has been cut which used to very uncomfortable for teh middle person earlier

2)New Key with Embedded remote control(No more extra remote )

3)New improved speakers(earlier ones were not so good)

4)NEw improved Tyres (Earlier ones used to get punctured easily)

5)Changed rear headresets(earlier ones used to block the rear view for the driver)

Overall Maruti seems to be listening to its customer complaints.Though I am not so happy with SX4 coz i had a lot of liking for Cedia Sports but cant help it

Maruti has been very keen on listening to customer complaints and then rectifying them. That is one good thing about Maruti.

Its sad that you had to leave Cedia sports. However, SX4 is a good car and you will enjoy driving it.

SX4 is good in all terms and a VFM for sure but I donno sumhow i dont like it much.Exteriors are very impressve to me but i hate its interiors like anything.That's probably coz i currently have a swift ZXI and in an upgrade i would like to have sumthing different inside..I m bored of that suzuki steering wheel

Looks like I am gonna need help from you guys once again in choosing a car.What do you guys think about Linea Emotion PK? Its an amazing car in all aspects except the power i feel.when i test drove the car i fel 1.4ltr petrol engine was too less for a 1300KG car.Am I wrong here or is that true?I want a car that drives up easily n powerfully on highways and hill stations..fill Linea fit into that requirement?heard that AC is not that good,even with rear AC vents it doesnt cool much is that true?

My budget is 8-9lakhs On road price.please advise ny other cars if you have any in mind.Not fiesta though its looks are old now.

Please help

You are right there on Linea. It is underpowered.

The diesel can be looked at still

yeah looks like SX4 would be the only option for me I am currently in talks with the dealership n bank guys for best deals.
