My first purchase... and what can I tell you... I had become a car maniac since a month.... There is no car which I hadnt read about, no car I did not take a test drive, no showroom where I tested the patience of the sales executive exhausting his knowledge about the machine... From Vernas...to Fiestas.. to Fusions... to Aveos... to Sx4 ....to Swift... to Dzire... to i10... to what not... Have test driven all... Though was impressed by Ford Fiesta 1.6 SXi initially until my eyes fell on this "Engineering Marvel" as it stood before me at the showroom magnanimously.... The moment I saw it, I knew that this was the car for me... I completely fell flat for the looks of the car.. its unique features.. Wait... This is not a car for the cost conscious buyer... Though the car is a little overtly priced, who cares if you can get all the luxury packed in a little hatch back...There were several factors working sub-consciously on my mind motivating me to go for it.. First and foremost, the brand name "Skoda"... Right from the car key looked unique.....Then there were other novel features like the sun and moon roof, the switches for the headlights uniquely placed on the dashboard, the innovative storage spaces though small but unique, the sun glass holder, the heaters on the front side view mirrors etc. etc. etc. I am greatly indebted to my friends out there on carwale.com who have written marvellous reviews on this machine who strengthened my decision about going for this car..I have read almost all the reviews about this car available on the net before going in for it.. The only drawback people seem to complain about this is slight over-pricing of this beauty... Like I said before, this is not the car for the cost conscious buyer...Another thing complained about is the ground clearance...This is a little true... As it is said "There is no rose without thorns, if it has no thorns, it is not a rose"... Hey... wait.. don't panic... With a little careful driving, you can avoid the bottom of the car from kissing the hump... Poor car, you cannot blame it for this... blame the admininstration, the civic authorities for those un-scientific Mt. Everest kinda road humps.... You can definitely avoid them by slow and cautiously driving on them.....
I am taking time to write this lengthy review only to provide the true insight of this car and encourage people to go for it... This car is my first purchase and will always remain "special" for me... HAPPY MOTORING !
GOOD FUEL ECONOMY, BOLD STYLING, INNOVATIVE CONCEPTSGround clearance is a little problem.
