Exterior Good looking.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Features , space and comfort good
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance and and fuel economy is good. Gearbox is on the stiffer side, it is not so smooth.
Ride Quality & Handling Good.
Final Words I have used it for 8000kM over 18 months period. After 4000kM squeaking sound has started coming from the dash board and door. It is getting worse day by day. I am getting the same feeling as my 10 year old zen regarding squeaky noise and vibration noise from dashboard and door due to poor quality of plastics and materials. The plastics used is very thin and already the interlocks in dashboard have started breaking and this is casuing vibration of the parts used in dashboard. I am afraid to think what will happen after 15000kM. The feel good factor has evaporated.
The insulation used seems compromised, After long driving in mild summer the heat from engine enters the passenger cabin. It will get worse in summer.
The quality of knobs used is not good, it is okay. The previous models had better quality.
There is no nosie coming from the road into the cabin, unfortunately noises and squeaks are originating from the cabin itself.
Areas of improvement The plastics and other materials need drastic improvement. The insulation needs to be improved.
Engine is good.Cheap and flimsy plastics in dashboard and doors. Paint quality not goodExterior/Styles

I selected sail sedan LT ABS but when I went to show room they sales person didn’t show any interest in showing us their cars so we just left and went to ford where despite show room was closed they showed us the cars and ready to give test drive. We finalised for ford classic (Petrol in first week of Feb 2014 but waited for budget on 17th feb 2014 when prices were reduced by 15000 thousand. After some thought and working for all discounts I went for diesel for budget of 700000/- (LXI) . One day I saw New City 2014 and we checked the demo and all my family okeyed for this all new city . then I finalised for this model and finnaly booked in first week of march 2014. As the city has some waiting so we decided to get this on 2nd May but we got delivery on 6th may dues to transportation problem due to Lok sabha Elelction 2014.
