My hard earned verito

I drive M800 currently.Tested all enrty level sedans.my running is 11000km per year,mostly highway. Dezire rear view is difficult & least back seat space for all(fuel 11-14kmpl petrol) but good resale value.Ikon costly maintence in the long run & only cosmetic changes in new model,sales go up with new launch & then fall down(fuel 11-13kmpl).Accent outdated(fuel 9-12kmpl).Indigo CS again poor dealer service & high maintenance cost after 1-2 year due to poor build quality but cheap to buy.Aveo is again not so popular. Logan (1.4 glx edge)has best colours,space,fuel economy(14-16) & INTERIORS is excellent --premium leather seats,wood  finish centre console,kenwood system with i-pod slot,reverse parking sensor,body graphics with purple colour body paint,boot release button,exhaust muffler,trip computer,central locking with engine immobilizer,rear door child lock & rear power window lock. not to mention the huge space inside.Room for 5 adults & 1 child.Tyers 185/70 R14 tubeless standard in all versions.Braking time & safety is on par with ABS models. Big front & rear windscreen is always helpful in driving as I get excellent view all around.High seating position helps a lot in city driving. Checked up with other customers & confirmed low cost of running.Dealer service just ok.no fog lamps in front(cost Rs.10000/- -- why).power windows button placement???. Review after 1st service: Very comfortable for long journey.Drove 4 hours from coimbatore to munnar hills & 2 hours break & then again 4 hours to Kottayam.In return drove via Ernakulam/cochin  continously 6.5 hours.People stop & admire the looks everywhere I went.The purple colour with body graphics & leather seats attract attention.Mileage achieved was 17kmpl.(714 kms 42 lts petrol).This includes highway & city driving.Kerala cities traffic is horrible.however no problem in handling city traffic.Bad roads,potholes  & small bumps no problem as the suspension is for Indian roads.Strong Car.Safe car. Current average of city & highway driving is 17-20kmpl.(30:70) at speed of 60kmph & at speed  of 100 it drops to 14-15kmpl(with AC on).Driving with or without  AC gives same mileage. My service cost was Rs.46.00 only.However service quality is just ok.They forgot to clean the front & rear windshield before delivery of the car.same for both rear view mirror.Second service cost at 9000km was 1490.00.Third service at end of year 11900kms  cost me Rs.1136.00.
