    DRIVING:
    one does procrastinate, putting pen to page, but any thing for the Aveo !!. Of all the cars that I had a privilege to see all in a matter of two days and little professional help, when i went to delhi to find a replacement for my beloved Matiz, this was a car that caught my eye. and where, Gurgaon delhhi highway has all the show rooms, Toyota, GM, Ford and Maruti some distance away, each dealer very cordial and pliant. On practicality and economy of purchase i was predecided on Esteem VXi( steel Grey), however on most counts , the Honda city was the car worth its money , a better gear box feel, conservative comfort and little that lacked!and of course the mileage!Ford Fiesta was good too however nthing exciting about its interiors and to me it appeared a littla cramped in the rear. It was a performance car and no doubt peppy in handling like the other fords. But my heart was sold to the better looking , Orange/brick , black and cherry colour machines. Interiors were way ahead of others and lent an upmarket feel.Very pleasing and airy feel ,enough space without too many technicalities.the drive; of curse well cushioned and power available on demand, though not such zippy feel as Ikon, or i am told the fiesta. The notchy gear box was a worry and needed some time getting used to, but todaywith a three month old Aveo i can safely say it was no problem. It was the 26 th booking there and the first onroad Aveo in New delhi as i seemed to have ready cash at the time. that surprised me and i carried some apprehension, aboutfurther sales /reviews of this car. the very next day drove the car down NH* to Mumbai. The most pleasant experience was the soft cushioned ride, good medium range revs which were a treat on the high way, smooth and neat. AC in the peak of summer had us comfortable, though no the - "Chill you to hell" variety.Mileage at steady speeds , fairly accurately measured, were 14.8, 14.9 and 14.7 respectively, AC on speeds,120/130 averaging. I waited almost two months before measuring town mileage which was 10- 10.5.no other problems were noticed. the first servicing was a "Penniless" operation , smooth as hell!!no unnecessary charges at National Garage. And yes the VGIS effect seems to wake up only above certain/speed/revs to provide its promised performance and efficiency. god bless the designers . a word to prospective buyers, nothing more tthan 1.4l is required its powerful and loaded as hell so enjoy the base model!!the most stylish car around for the moneynot the best pick up
