The car would be used occasionally, mostly for semi-long trips within the State, and most of the roads in my area are in poor condition.
Those are quite expensive out here.Can find too much on the net for meghalaya. Best bet would be local classifieds or used car showrooms.
Grand i10 can also be a decent option.
I was about to look for these but was leaning more towards Ritz and Brio. However, would anyone recommend a Bolero DI Turbo?If you don't care about looks and looking for driving centric cars. Look for ford Figo with low odo kms. Spares are pretty cheap & reliable. Ford diesel engines are rock solid and enjoyable.
I have the Ritz diesel. Maintainance is easy and the parts I believe should be available forever since most of MS cars like the swift dzires which are used as taxis share the same engine. Only issue I find is the stiff suspension which shouldn't be a problem if you have good roads. The steering is also on the heavier side since it's hydraulic as opposed to electric, but the feel is really nice.I was about to look for these but was leaning more towards Ritz and Brio.

Under 2 lakhs will probably fetch him a first gen figo. Unlikely to find a low odo one . Also those are prone for injector failures and leakages related to turbocharger and allied components.If you don't care about looks and looking for driving centric cars.
