Need Advice Santro Xing or I10 or Anyother?

Hello guys,

          Iam going to buy car for first time i need suggestions from you guys,My budget is upto 4 lax or upto 4.5 lax i personally like Santro Xing i like its look and i think it is the best car.But as its an old model and Hyundai have launched there new car in same range known as I10 i think i must go with it but i dint like its model is there any big technical difference between i10 and santro xing?

And one more thing is interior of Santro Xing is good?

Please advice me guys

the hyundai 10 is lot improved than the Santro and even the mialge and the resale will be better for the i10 , it would be better for you to go to the i10 , but if you are really atached to the looks of santro you could go for it as well .

so its upto to you to decide , however the Santro is not having nay defect or something and is perfect small car , but if you pay little more i10 will make it a worthy BUY!

Cheers,
Sri

WOW very quick reply thank you so much for it i know Santro is old..

My friends say me to go for Swift and i like its looks too..

So which car should i select now Swift or I10?

I dont like the looks of I10

Thanks sorry if you are iritated by my questions

well the swift is a better option i think you could buy the LXi swift , if possible try to get the Swift Dzire LXi as its just priced around 30k rs more than the Hatch swift! btw choice is yours to decided on dzire or swift! i feel you will get the extra boot for a good price! i mean the Swift Dzire LXI.

Also do have a look at the Aveo UVA as it offers excellent value, is easy to get as the booking period unlike the Swift is almost nil and has a three year maintenance free offer, its also spacious and contemprory.

I think i should go for Swift Dzire as its new and only 30,000 difference...

Binoy Thomas i dint even so that car here in Chennai.....


Thank you very much both of you for your reply

Just now i checked out that in Swift Dzire audio system is not coming and no speakers too that means if i addon speakers and audio system then it will cost 10,000 i dont know properly but may be as speaker and all attachments may be costly....

Dear Ashish , better go for Swift DZIRE and its a good choice too , but the LXi version doesnot come with Music system , but VXI comes with music system , fog lamps, wheel covers , 4 door power windows and central loccking for 40k rs more , and mind you resale will also be around 0k - 25k rs more for the VXi version than the LXi , so better go for the Swift DZIRE VXI

Well, I beg to differ over Sri a little. Ashish - the first question is - do you actually need a boot?? If yes, then Dzire makes sense - but, if you don't then why even carry it along with you everywhere - I would strongly recommend you not to go for Dzire if you don't need a boot in real sense because it comes with a bit more of issues  - while parking - especially in a city like Mumbai - you will have to face issues. Also, Dzire has a wait period that is typically 6 months atleast - believe me, the 2 months wait period on my Swift was frustating - so, better be prepared.

I am not discouraging you in any sense but only trying to help you in better understanding of your requirements and hence to take a sensible decision thereon - If a Swift hatch is what is suited for you and if you don't need a boot at all - then why even think of a Dzire - for that rear occasion where you need to drop your family at the airport / raiway station / for a rare long drive with considerable luggage, better go for Swift and invest in a detachable overhead luggage rack - detach it for normal day usage and attach it when needed for those rare occasions.

Also, as stated before, better be prepared for long queue for a Dzire - I would say, first think down better on what usage would be like - if it is for point A to point B in city - a Swift / i10 / Santro is good to go - Don't buy big just because it is big - Better understand what you actually need.

Hello Mr. K Prasad,

     Thank you for your advice but are you sure it takes 6 months for every delivery in every city?

And what are the other problems in Dzire?

Hey and whats the meaning of BOOT?
