Well, I shifted to Delhi from Mumbai about 3 months back. I must tell you that Im a mega auto enthusiast and am always in touch with te latest happenings in automobile world.
I had my first car a few years back in Mumbai. I had a Lancer GLXD. It was a diesel car of course. I was extremely happy with its performance and 3 cars since my first one, will recommend a mitshubishi diesel engine always. Soon I was saturated and bought a Scorpio. Amazing vehicle. I had the time of my life when we had that. My wife always called it a truck, but adored the ride quality and safety. Then came the Delhi offer and things took a completely different turn. I had to shift to delhi and for some personal reasons had to sell my Scorpio.
Then soon in Noida, I needed a vehicle and started searching for a car this time. Test drove everything from Wagon r to endeavour. Then much to my annoyance, I was bulldozed to buy a wagonr lxi. I really wanted to buy a fiesta at the least and had almost gone for civic. Can you belive it??? but who can say no to his bro in law..... So I went to the showroom and simply picked up a white wagonR Lxi. Thoroughly depressed, I started driving this auto rickshaw as I call it. But trust me, the fuel efficiency is amazing!!! I get around 17kmpl on city roads and have not been able to touch any highway so far. It has a great view from the driver's seat. The gear box is P....A...T...H...E...T...I...C.... The suspension is maha boring and terrible if I may say so. But Im relatively happier now. My wife can drive this. And ill recomend this to people for sure.
The dealer was mindblowing. They have a free pick up and drop facility for the services. Very Very happy with VIPUL MOTORS NOIDA.
Recently, my friend, a flouriculturist, had drop down to NOIDA and wanted to shift some heavy baggages with him to Siliguri. I had gone to pick his baggages and trust me, the folding rear seat of wagon r was a major help. We could stuff in big bags and suit cases. I dont think any other small car could have been more use full. As I write this, my car is due for its first service and I will update everyone for sure.
