Hi all,
After 3 months of researching on cars, i have finally decided to go with Ford Figo Diesl(EXI) varient and got delivery on 16th dec 11. Till now it clocked 1000km. I would like to share my driving experience with you guys.
1) Excellent ride quality and body control even you touch 100+ speed.
2) I was surprised with the steering feedback it gives @ sharp curves, narrow roads, as i covered my first few km in ghat road it was splendid experience with Figo on ghat roads.
3) It even better in city traffic, i live in hyderabad, even in bumper to bumper traffic you can happily go in 2nd gear, i go to 1st gear if i have stop completely until then u can stay in 2nd gear, and gear ratio is awesome as it supports very low RMP in 3rd gear!!!, so frequent gear shifts can be avoid with Figo.
4) Next come to FE: I am completely satisfied with this as i have got 18 in mixed conditions of City and Highway with AC is on always.
5) The last but not least, which is about maintenance: as i covered only 1000km, so i cant comment on this but what i can say is if any car handled single handedly then we can reduce lot of extra costs incurred!!! Maintain good RPM ratio always, better to go around 80-90s in highways, then you wont find major issues for a longer period.
6) Lastly about Dealership experience: I will comment on this once iam done with the First Free Service.
Drive safe!!! All the best guys...
