Its been a month since I got my Swft VXi(ABS) - Silky Silver. I have driven the car on very few occasions as I was on and off the home town for some personal reasons.
Here are the few things which I would like to share for the fellow buyers.
1. **Car provides you with excellent confidence when you drive esp @ >90kmph.**
2**. Very good seating position as I drove continuously from Bangalore to Shimoga non stop in 41/2 hrs.**
3. **Decent suspension not so very great but still manageable.**
4**. Did not like the incabin noise as I felt it would have been little better than what it is.**
5. **Hghway FE I got was 16.5kmpl(Shell) and on my way back 17(Reliance).**
6. **City around 11.5kmpl with 100%A/C on not very accurate as my car was driven mostly on highways so far.**
7.L**ack of rear viper and defogger even in vxi-abs model is big problem when it starts pouring. You end up driving assuming there is no one tailgating. **
8.**Great pickup and superb handling with good breaks.**
9. A**BS kicked in when it mattered the most(rain).**
10. Gear change in the city is too frequent as it did not live upto my expectations may be I will get used to it.
11. **My door opening handle is already not** working poor maruti build I have to get it repaired.
12. Went is for first service It is fine see no issues with their service and they were very courteous.
1**3. A/C is superb in the car.**
14. **Parking is an issue as the view is not very good**. Again I need to get used to it.
**My Recommendation for new car buyers.**
If you like driving the car yourself then buy the Swift as it gives overall good feel for a driver in that segment along with good FE.
