My vento my love

I was in to change my car since quite some time. I was doing  reserch for a decent mid size diesel sedan. options were new Honda City, Hyundai Verna, Vento and Niassan-Renault twins Scala and Sunny.

Honda failed to impress even though it is feature packed. Verna was refined but felt a little over priced for a korean car and god konws when they will revice the design so my new car will become old in an instant. Sunny and Scala failed me with their figure. I was looking for something which I can keep for say 8 to 10 years withuot being out of fashion.

Before I took the test drive of vento I was happy with its looks. Its like the old colonial houses we see today. It will never get old. It will stay with time. Minimal and modest

The moment I took the test drive I fell in love with this car. It was a pleasure to drive I dont know why people complaints about this car power delivery and performance. May be they all were riding audy or some super car before. i was upgrading my self from my swift dezire to this car. I felt its relly nice car.

Every one was telling service expence is high. I requested for service bill vouchers at the showroom its all in 8500-10000 range. Its not a big deal I felt. Because I was payin average 7000 for my swift dezire in every service so in 30000 I will spent aorund 21000 for swift. for this one around 20000 max since service is in every 15000km.

Purchased the car in the next week and crossed 3500 km today. purchase experience was too good. its true that like maruty the dealer they will not push you to buy this one. but once you let them konw that you are purchasing  they will help you with every tis bits .

I work in a hill station and my home in plains. so my driving consist of a mix of highways and ghat roads. its really a performer. you hardly need gear shift in between other than 4th and 5th. mind you its not peppy as DDiS of maruty but you will never lack power when its required. its power delivery is more linear I would say.

I got an average milage of 18-22 always when I kept my spped limit to 70 -90. yes its milage is really bad (15- 17) if you drive it harsh. AC is amasing. Its cools the cabiin in minutes and cochin heat was not able to touch us. Guys music sytem in this version is cool. you will love listening to anything. its dont have high bass or fine tweeters but good to listen. most of the time high end music sytem is a waste for you. i had all of them, sub .,amp everithing in my previous car most of the time I was febbiling through controls than enjoy my drive.

Built quality is superb. moving from maruty you can feel it. plastic in side is so sturdy that it will easy tolereate your naughty kids.

Over all its a good car with all essential features. you will love it if you are in your 30s, settling and looking for a good family car which you can keep for 10 more years.

Classy looks, good engine performance , good fuel economy, spaceousLittle noisy,little low on features
