    DRIVING:

    Hi all

    i recently bought a UVA 1.2 LS(IVORY GOLD color)  from German Motors calicut.Got free insurance,free MP3 player, mud flaps,anti rust coating.

    UVA is a wonderful car.as far as style is concerned, its a queen among other hatchbacks especially i like the curves in side.i have driven my car around 100 kms in highways and cities.In city, it suprised me.I drove my car at 30 km speed in 5 th gear.amazing...when i entered in highways, i didnt feel lack of power...but when i switch on AC, in flat roads, its was riding like a horse... in inclined roads, it doesnt have enough power...but my cousine said that, most of the cars have this problem..

    Pros:

    good styling,good stability,well weighted steering,very spacious especially backseats,clear lamps.

    Cons:

    My cars gears are not much smooth esepcially first,second and reverses.My dealer said tht after first checkup, it will be ok.The position of horn which is located on the center position.Sometimes, it would loose your driving comfort.

    About fuel efficiency:i got an average of 15 km per liter.For me its enough.

    I had done a lot of research in hatchbacks and finally i decided to buy UVA. I had three choices which were swift ZXI,Getz prime 1.3 and UVA 1.2 LS.

    I have seen that all people want to know the difference between these three cars.I would like to put my findings here.

    Swift: its a superb car in highways.It has 86 bhp and good mileage of 16 km/l in highways.Problems are legspace in backseats and heard that it starts vibratin when u drive after 100 kms.Advantages: coming with ABS and airbag for 4.6 lakhs.

    Getz: first of all its 1.1 liter version is not good enough. 1.3 is overly priced.compared to UVA, its 1.1 lacks power and style.If u go for 1.3, u can buy a sedan of that price.

    My extra fittings: i fitted a spoiler,cheverolet's genuine leather seat cover and fog lamps. I have a plan to buy chevy's warning system too.

    i know i left a lot of things here..If u guys want to know anything more abt UVA , plz put msgs here...

    First of all i have a advise to u...plz do as many as test drives...it will help u a lot...then read the reviews especailly from carwale and other sites.

    cheers
