I am thinking of buying a car. Budget is around 3.5 lacs but i can go a bit overboard as well.

Which one should i get and why?

WagonR LXi (AC, power steering)is around 3.46 lacs. Hyundai i10 is around 4 lacs for i10 era model (AC, power steering, power windows, central locking).

So, is it worth going for i10 over the WagonR (extra 50K)?
 
My vote goes for the i10; :)

Test driven it and I'd say go for it;

Smoother gearshift, decent boot-space for a hatch, powerful engine, awwsum interiors [for a hatch at the price it comes for], mileage of abt 17kmpl on the highways [with ac switched on], tilt steering etc.

The only biggest con being the glare on the windshield being too much; ppl who wear glasses while driving will have a hard time; :)
 
Hyundai i10 is good feature small hatch for small family car :eek:hyeah: so u are plans u get marriage soon :p
 
not both.... i will prefer a Indica XETA petrol.....or mabbe Indica diesel....am not sure whether the diesel will fit into your budget.....

Indica is nice car....bought just 2 months ago......cost me 3.25 on road after a 22k discount......More internal space compared to i10 or Wagon R.....ya definitely i10 is ugly car
 
montylee, what are you looking for in a car ? though the features in the i10 are worth the extra 50k, make sure you need them before you put up the money :p

i donno much abt cars. I am just looking for basic features like power steering, AC and maybe central locking.
 
I think you are pretty set on an i10 but I think that you can save quite some money(almost 1L) if you consider an alto or a santro. An i10 is basically a small car with a big price tag according to me. Actually, I don't understand why people are going for it at the price it's retailing at.

Edit: Just saw the price of i10 you've mentioned. Are you sure it has ac, power windows and all with 4L price? My friend was quoted some 4.5L I think.
 
i have all these mentioned above in my Indica...

montylee don u have any preferences about the engine... power of the vehicle kinda stuff
 
since i donno much abt cars i have no such preferences.

@sydras, i agree with u that the i10 is overpriced. I spoke to a Hyundai dealer and he told me the price of Hyundai i10 Era model (power windows, power steering, AC, central locking) as 3.97 lac (on road price).

Namic, let him go ahead with the i10; It is indeed a much better buy than the Indica and performs much better IMO;

Having driven the XETA but I bet none other hacth offers the same features for this price tag at least!! :D

And monty, 4L for the i10 era [on-road] is certainly a good price tag;

Stereo and such stuff would add to it later but still its ur first car so go ahead with the purchase; :)
