Its now Go Figo
Ford Figo

Prabhakar you have done your research well, agree with you totally Ford could have atleast put adjustable head rests in the rear seats, the power windows could be added in the top but if offset against safety frills for price reduction in other variants its ok because its rarely used. Ford has got... to keep pace with consumer preferences when it comes to sound systems when the world was hooked on to MP3 CD players Ford launched a 6 CD Changer in dash in the top end Fiesta Sxi with no MP3, ridiculous!! A little market research or foresight would have saved them trouble of elaborately crafting this 6 CD dash, they still appear to be behind consumer expectations on this front.Read More

Its now Go Figo
Ford Figo

Hi Ragannath., The boot is big but with a little constraint its not huge a 60:40 would give versatility for large luggage (typically for airport drops & pickups) which for that matter one cannot even load into a sedan when there are 2 or more people travelling.

Brilliant Vehicle from Ford - They have got everything right in the design, everything except the non-existent rear 60:40 sear split even in the top end variant. Awesome boot space and rear seat legroom, the best in this class considering the Figo is just around 30K more than a Ritz(leaving ABS ...Read more

Ritz or ford figo? Please help me
Maruti Suzuki RitZ

Ritz is the way to go.. although it is a more expensive vehicle the maintenance will be cheaper on the long run, besides there is currently a discount of 30K on the Ritz. Maruti's fetch a higher resale. You can read my review on the Ritz.

PANASONIC LUMIX LZ10-BEST BUDGET COMPACT CAMERA
Panasonic Lumix LZ10

Hey I have bought a LZ-10 too. The features are very very good but the pictures are pathetic. Very Very poor quality. No sharpness in the pictures at all when viewed on the PC. Also I am trying to get someone from Panasonic view this model but to no avail, but there is no response from Panasonic ...after repeatedly trying to contact someone who can verify that the picture quality is indeed poor. I cannot believe that a Panasonic Camera with a Leica lens can produce such pathetic pictures, I felt I should not have bought this model. This is on comparison with my earlier Sony DSC-W5 which is also a pocket camera which unfortunately was flicked.Read More

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeee Help
Maruti Suzuki RitZ

Hi Gaurav, Santro is no doubt a great car but the limitations are a bumpy ride as compared to the Ritz. The Ritz has a rear 60:40 folding seat so additional space can be made even while seating a 3rd person in the car so this is ideal for a family with a single child. If you are single and this is... your first car then the Ritz is more value for money on the long run and you can consider your additional 40K as an investment becasue you may not feel the need to upgrade to your next car earlier you can just stretch this for a little while longer. But ofcourse the Lxi will come without the frills of power windows etc. Ofcourse the Central Locking can be fit later but If these are more important then you have to weigh the options.Read More

Yes the gear position is very comfortable and delightfully different. It would take a little getting used to. The diesel is delightful. I will put in the tech specs soon.

Accent\Viva discontinued???
Sanjay Hyundai - Pune

As far as I know Hyundai is supposed to concentrate on the Verna and retain the Accent only for the GLE version which is currently the lowest variant of the Accent available. The CRDi that the dealer has maybe from his left over stock .. if you are still interested in it, drive a good bargain, it sh...ares the same power train with the Verna. If you could wait for some time there is a new Baleno slated for releases shortly which I estimate is going to be a winner this time unlike the existing Baleno which is a failure.Read More
