I'm looking to buy a car for myself, my first ever car, im about 6'3" tall medium built so all those small hatchbacks are a big no no.
Im looking for a car with a good drive feel and low running and maintenance costs, there would mostly be just the 2 of us driving the car me and my better half, however we would occasionally have friends tagging along .
The usage of the car would not be much with an occasional drive during the week and long drives over the weekends, i have narrowed down to two cars mainly that fit the bill, Wagon R CNG and Ritz Diesel ( confused between VDi & LDi), Maruti has a good track record with low maintenance and cheap parts with good service, also these are tall boy designs hence should be comfortable to drive even on long drives.
The car would be purchased in Mumbai, looking for the best deal and maybe suggestions around which car to pick, i did check alot on T Bhp prior to coming to these selections, im more inclined to the Ritz than the Wagon R for the better driving feel & build quality.
I have never bought a car before and this will be my first, ill be then adding the ICE and maybe parking sensors, still need to finalise on the accessories to put in as well.
I have obtained quotes and the Wagon R is coming to 4.88 on road with 23k in discounts with the freebies, the RitZ LDi comes to 5.66 and VDi to 6.07, main differences between the 2 are Tachometer,Central Locking,Front Fog Lights,Power Windows,B Pillars,Fog Lamps. Central locking costs 5k and 10 for fitting power windows directly from Maruti. I dont really need the rest do i? SO i could save money there.
SO let the comments come in. Also if anyone can direct me to a good deal ongoing now would be much appreciated.
