I have an Indica DLX Turbo of August ’07 I stay in Gurgaon and my office is on Mathura Road a daily commute of about 80 kms give or take a few depending on family . We ‘ve a family of 4 self , wife ,son and my mother . I met with an accident after which had to go for an surgical implant in my left hand which means I can’t drive over long distances and is dependent on a driver for daily commute . Additionally roads are a mix of smooth to non existent to series of potholes put together . Driver has been with us for about 18 months and is a fairly careful one without being rash .
Indica has done about 60,000 Km and is headache if we all have to travel and I have to sit in the front . It is definitely time for replacement at the earliest . Wife has an Opel Corsa which we are not planning to change for some time to go
please:
Present :
A car which is comfortable to be driven in and has fuel efficiency and low running cost so a diesel fits in nicely . Since I already have an Indica I am done with Tata Cars for life so no Indica Vista or alpha for that matter .
I am 6 foot tall so have limited choices cars tried so far
Fabia : Noisy engine ( sales rep told me car is under maintenance ) and a new car is better .
Punto : Can;t fit in the rear seat
Would welcome any advise on which car to go for , budget is not a constraint but it is definitely not Lora’sque .
Biggest requirement is back seat comfort
