Full Review

I LIKE DRIVING AND USED TO TRAVEL A LOT.I TRAVELLED ABOUT 50,000 KM IN A YEAR.ABSOLUTELY ITS A PROBLEM FREE VEHICLE.THE PERIODIC SERVICE CHARGES ARE NOMINAL.CONFIDENTLY WE CAN TAKE THE CAR ANYWHERE COZ SERVICE CENTERS ARE AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE.IT IS FUEL EFFICIENT,CAN CARRY A LOT OF LUGGAGE IF GOING FOR LONG TRIPS. COMPARED TO OTHER CARS IN THE MARKET , IT IS A CAR OF COMPROMISE.IE,U R GETTING A BIG CAR FOR A LOW PRICE. ITS A STEADY VEHICLE AND I HAVE TOUCHED 140 KM/HR ON LONG DRIVES.I DID IT ONLY AFTER PUTTING BROADER TYRES. ONE PROBLEM AFTER THAT WAS THE STEERING BECAME TOO TIGHT SINCE THE LX MODEL DOES NOT HAVE POWER STEERING. ONE MAIN DIFFICUTY I FIND WITH THIS CAR IS THAT IT HAS TOO LOW SEATS. THE INTERIOR IS NOT SO ATTRACTIVE LIKE THE NEWER CARS.THE UPHOLSTRY NEEDS A FACELIFT. I CAN STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS CAR TO OTHERS BECOZ WE ARE DRIVING ON INDIAN ROADS.

Esteem is the car of dreams It is the only car which can challenge the cars which are available for double to triple its price and such a car which is especially suitable for long ,short and any type of the journeys. Its engine is like one of the most reliable engine , since i have one of it which is 1995 model but runs very smooth which is none other than like miracles also the boot space is quiet large, and even if maruti launches again i would like to buy of of it.

I am owning an Esteem LXi BS III car. This was my dream car before I purchase one. Now really it is very good decision to have one. Its pickup is good and very smooth driving with power sterring. This is one car which has been liked by max middle class people and worths its price. AC is very effective, and carry lot of stuff. It is notuderstood why Maruti has stopped its production. I feel they should review their decision. Otherwise they may suffer as what has happened by intro Zen Estilo.
