   thanks for making me feel proud... infact adding another feather to my cap of owining a 5 speed M800. i have just booked a 2000 Model but run 40K Km from True Value Bimal in bangalore, My pocket ddint allow me to buy a new one, i was happy to get this 5 speed version. is this engine euivalent to teh alto engine. i herd the suspension is equal to the ZEN susupension and hence this car was expensive.... -Bharath K

   Yes I agree to your comments.But I have purchased a 5 speed maruti 800 A/C owned by a Doctor which has run around 64,000Kms.It was purchased at a cost of Rs,1,30,000/-. Now I feel it is worth after seeing the comments and also I am fully convinced.My worry is what type of check required apart from the chasis and outside frame are in good condition- (i.e., free from rust and dents)Can I take this car forlong drive.Please suggest.WWhat will be fuel efficieny in Cirt as well as on Highways.

   Hi Friends,
   This is quite obvious that it will give better performance as the engine is same as Alto and the suspension is same as Zen.

   I have bought new 8oo DX in 2001 june.It clocked 1,07,000 km.I have made a lot of trips from Hyderabad.I have been to Coonoor (900km),Kudremukh(780km),Madikeri(800km),Horsley Hills(680km),Maredumilli(650km)in our car.It's been driven on horrible roads in most of these trips.But not even once I faced a problem.Except for AC,the car is great.I give it for servicing every 4000 km.Till this date the Engine is not touched.maintenance costs are minimal.It gives 17km/lt in city.I love the car.

   I have a maruti 800 ex 5speed and it gives nice performence in the road of assam.Top speed is about 115km/h and fuelefficiency is about 24km/l at an speed of 40 to 50 km/h.Low maitanance cost.A little problem with headlight. In its top speed it feels like sliding on the road and a little problem creats on controling.
