A car for middle class budget

Exterior

Its really cute and india's most loved car. Due to small hatch, we Can park easily.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

It is very besic but what can you expect in a tiny budgeted car.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Very good engine. Gear shifting is very good than indica.

Ride Quality & Handling

Ride is good for small tours upto 100km. Once I travelled from pune to Miraj, but I didn't feel uncomfortable at both and front seats. Leg room is sufficient for ana average indian.

Final Words.

I own a used Maruti 800 ex 5 speed before a month. It was of 2001 and drove 98000km on odo. I had done some repair work of gearbox overhaul and some bushing and bearings. I drove it for 1200km in a month. And I am satisfy on my decision to by secondhand maruti. I am happy with its fifth gear. It feels like a big size car. overall its a lottery for me.

Areas of improvement  

Tyre size should be little big like alto. And ground cleareance for 5 speed is less than 4 speed for driving on speed bereakers, we have to drive it very carefully.
