Metro is a useless dealer. When I used to own an Ikon, I had several arguements with them. Cauvery Ford is supposed to be slightly better, though they are located quite far away -- that is, if you live in the heart of Bangalore city, or in the Eastern subarbs. IMHO, the fundamental problem with F read more...

Excellent review -- though I agree with the others that readability would've been vastly improved if you had not used 'SMS' language! My only complaint with Motorola is their awful name search and slightly cumbersome menus. For eg. on Nokia you can access the SMS entry screen in 1 touch - on the read more...

The Razor v3 is a great phone overall -- killer looks, a keyboard which is unique, good reception and an okay enough battery. What I dislike is the cumbersome messaging and terrible name search -- especially as I'm used to Nokia's almost intuitive features for both these functions. For searching read more...

I agree that Bimal is probably one of the worst dealers in Bangalore. I was shopping for a vehicle last year and had approached both Bimal and Pratham. Bimal even hid information on Maruti-supplied discounts from me and wanted to charge me almost double when I wanted to change from tubed to tubeless read more...

Agree that the Elantra is a nice car. But, the car has horrible resale value due to Hyundai's crazy pricing, and then the dealers heavily discounting the car -- especially in March -- just to meet sales targets. You might have considered the CRDi diesal version, if your running is on the higher s read more...

The Wagon-R is indeed a nice car from the engine point of view. But I found body roll very pronounced on the car, when compared to a Santro and more so when compared to a Santro Xing. The gears also felt vague and mushy. But after-sales service is fantastic, courtesy the Maruti network. Overall, an read more...

Hi Hari Brilliant review [or is it 'article' :-) ] but as the owner of a Toyota Corolla, I must disagree with your high praise for the car. Agreed the car is brilliant ......... BUT the company that sells it, and it's dealers nation-wide, are a big disappointment. Read my review on the Coroll read more...

Hi Akash Cielo is indeed a good car (used to have 1 some years ago and really enjoyed it). But .......... availability of spares and service centers IS an issue, and that is what makes most Cielo owners jittery. Here's wishing you many more happy kilometers and years with your Cielo ! P read more...

Finally, Calicut City per se may not have much to see and do – apart from shopping for handloom cloth, the famous Calicut halwa and wonderful brass handicrafts, not to mention a bewilderingly wide selection of gold jewellary. This stems from Calicut’s history as being a gateway to the ti read more...

Hi Drifter It's a pity that Calicut managed to drive you up the proverbial coconut tree! C'mon now, how many days did you actually spend at Calicut? Surely, a town which had Vasco da Gama visiting it in 1498, a town which gave to the world VK Krishna Menon etc. can't be all that bad. Granted read more...

Hi Vijay It is indeed a pity that you are also facing almost similar experience at dealerships that both I and Mr. Hiten Mehta (Mumbai) are facing. It is a pity that Toyota Kirloskar Motor Co. is so careless in appointing dealers -- and then not bothering to follow up to check whether their dealers read more...

Hello Hiten It's a real pity that Toyota Kirloskar Motor Co. is taking Indian consumers for a right royal ride. The title of your review says it all ! I have a manual transmission version of the car, and have had MAJOR service problems with their dealer in B'lore. To be honest, I have not experi read more...

Hi Harsh Another lift from WWW.INDIACAR.COM roadtest on the Hyundai Terracan. Please write your own experiences

Hi Harsh You've lifted this review from the road test report of the Toyota Corolla 1.8 E in WWW.INDIACAR.COM Wish you had written this after reviewing the car yourself.

Commented on juggernaut's review

Not sure whether the Reva will ever really succeed. The car is far too cramped and small to be practical. Since I'm from Bangalore, I've seen quite a few of these and frankly am appalled by the small size and flimsiness of the vehicle. Since the Reva is being positioned as a 'city car', I really read more...

Agree with you that the Hebbal flyover is well done -- though ANY flyover on Bangalore seems to take much longer to build than anywhere else in India :-) Instead of such a complicated structure, I wonder whether a simple 4 lane flyover, with a round-about below would have sufficed? It would ha read more...

Lovely review and looks like you're enjoying your car ;-) BTW, I used to own a Cielo GLE and got marginally better mileage. Try using petrol additives to push the mileage up. Didn't have the guts to try the LPG option myself, as I had once witnessed an LPG-equipped Maruti van blow up in front read more...

Hi Ganesh & Nandu Thanks for your comments. The Ravindu guys took the car and fixed the noise. Initially, they tried to pass it off as noise being caused by an extra rear-view mirror I had clipped-on over the existing RV mirror. When I pointed out that I had the mirror right from the begi read more...
