Have you been in nano. Don’t know how it passed safety standards. But I can see the market though. A cheap small car for people. I did used to see a lot of Suzuki cars on the road. I know German cars are off the menu due to the massive import taxes.

      Dubman haha Never been, and never will. With all the trucks here, that thing is a coffin basically.

      The first car I moved back to India was a Maruti Suzuki Alto. Still get sentimental about that thing, used to call it the Smurf Mobile. Maruti Suzuki has a brilliant reputation here; bang for your buck, extremely durable (built for Indian roads) and probably the best after sales service compared to any other brand. Pretty much got 100% of what I paid brand new, after 8 years of use, when I swapped it out for the Hyundai Verna. Resale value was amazing.

        I have a Qashqai and I gotta say it’s the most reliable and hassle free car I have ever owned. Very comfortable, good on fuel, I guess there is a reason that there are so many on UK roads.

        Cankles-McJeggings Must have been a slip of the mouse. Definitely not a Jeep fan, infact one of the guys has a lime green Renegade, claims its his Mrs’, rest assured we absolutely rinse him daily for driving it.

          If that’s his car I would hate to see his trabbs.

          It’s not Yant is it?

          rhouses If it was me i’d get something with a decent manufactures warranty such as Kia/Hyundai as you daily driver, then try and save a few grand and buy a weekend runabout for the fun factor. You can pick up a decent Z4 with a 6 cylinder engine, Merc SL / SLK or BMW 3 series convertible for about 4 or 5 grand nowadays.

          Approved used is another good option. I managed to get an X3 which was 9 yrs old from BMW with a 2 yr BMW approved warranty on it for about £11K all in. Only done 50K miles and was pristine.

              This is how the biz tranz’ers roll, you gotta let’em know what’s what from the get go!

              IndustryStandard I did think about going second hand in the premium sector, but felt the servicing cost and insurance would be too high. Second hand in India is a little different, roads are awful and Indian drivers are quite aggressive, wear and tear is probably a lot worse than the 1st world.

                I’d just go with a Kia Seltos rhouse. You’re already emasculated so what the fuck. You can at least be emasculated with a 7 year warranty 👍

                  Having ridden on the roads in India I know how aggressive & dangerous other users are. Is it really worth buying a brand new car as the odds of someone crashing into you are very high. The Kia may have a 7 year warranty but that won’t cover you for bodywork etc.

                    Haha the worst/scariest place I’ve ever driven was Sri Lanka everything was like risking your life.
                    I’d never go there again based on that. Terrifying.
                    I think it has more road deaths than any other country in the world. Or did at the time.
