Tata Indigo Marina [2004-2010]

Indigo Marina (LS BS III) City Mileage (without a/c) – 19.65 kmpl Highway Mileage (without a/c)- 22.5 kmpl City Mileage (with a/c) – 14.03 kmpl Highway Mileage (without a/c)- 17.5 kmpl It took me almost 2 years to get these magical figures. At last all my hard work paid off and I can say that my car is probably the only Marina that gives such a g8 mileage. One more thing, there is no power lag below 2000 rpm i.e. even without turbo getting activated, during pickup it behaves like a petrol engine. Some more facts about mileage: During my visit from Rudraprayag to Kedarnath and back I got a mileage of 16.35 Kmpl at one of the most dangerous hilly roads in India (frequent landslides) and during my visit to Mana (the last village on Indian side on India China border, if I would have done another 45 kms I would have reached China) and dangerous roads via Nandprayag (including one of the most steepest hilly roads between Govindghat and Badrinath where you have to take your car up at first gear, with water from waterfalls overflowing on the road, thereby your tyres almost 30% submerged in water) and back I got a mileage of around 13.52 kmpl. Tips: Get all the genuine parts for your diesel pump. Only visit a mechanic who along with engine work also knows how to do setting of diesel pump. Keep the tyre pressure at 35 psi. Use engine treatment during oil change (drastically reduces friction and engine overheating)G8 mileage, spacious interior, g8 exterior luks, supr chilld ac,tiredless drivin during long journySuspension needs to be more strong

  Exterior Nice exterior. I like the shape. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Front space is ok. For the rear seats, the leg room is NOT good. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good engine performance for 2 years. After that it sucks. Gave me 9 kmpl in Chennai traffic with AC on. On the highway, oh man, it gives 17 kmpl with AC on. Ride Quality & Handling I am the one and only driver. (Leave alone the Concorder engineers.) Ride quality was good till a few months ago. Final Words I take care of the car, spend money in it servicing regularly. But in spite of that after 3 years, it is beginning to be noisy inside at times. Frankly, I think the service station / delaer is NOT good. So, go for a good dealer who can guarantee "top quality" service. Areas of improvement Get a good dealer. Bad ones like concorde is driving me away to other cars. No problems for 3 yearsNo good dealer to service. Hopeless diagnosing and servicing

TATA-Marina is a good car. I have 2005, LS model and completed 53000 km. Fitted power window by own. A very gud vehical for highway driving. Very comfortabe. My longest drive was 650 km apx in a day(Gurgaon to Salasar and back). At the end of my journey i feel very happy to see the performance in term of fuel economy (18~20 kmpl) and comfort level. No tiredness at the end of journey. Good controlling, but some where pickup was less w.r.t other cars. This type of models are not so liked in our country due to the size. But once you will get the driving experience defenitely you will like it. Value for money in this segment. Style is also good. AC performance is supper. Ground clearance is less.  TATA should increase the height.  Normally people think's that TATA vehicals have more maintenance, this is not true. Re-Sale value is low...but...Overall I m happy with my car.   Thanx, Vikas Narwal(Gurgaon)  Good fuel economy getting 18~21 on highway with AC. Style is also goodPickup is less during starting

Very good leg space.. Space for boot can be used for sitting too by making some adjustment. Very Good performance and very happy with performance. I am glad to buy this car and would recommend to buy this car for join family.. Thanks..  Very good in average...Very good leg space.. Space for boot can be used for sitting too by making some adjustment.
