I have recently purchased a 1998 milk white Cielo automatic car with lpg kit in Hyderabad. the car very good but spares availability in Hyderabad is little bit difficult.
the car is very lengthy, it is more or less Innova’s length but the gap between driver seat and steering is very less so that sitting in the driver seat is difficult of heavy persons.
The fan of the engine is not attached in my car a separate lever is provided besides accelerator in order to lever on/ lever off as and when the car to be started and stopped.
Otherwise the engine became heat and will brake down. Apart from these two things I did not find any defects so far. The car paint looks like new paint but it is 13 years old original paint.
The mileage of the automatic cars is comparative to manual transmission is less but my car is running on LPG and is giving 7/8 KMPL LPG in busy traffic in Hyderabad city.
When it is compared to Honda City automatic this car is delivering more or less same power and comfort on par with Honda city.
The maintenance of car is relatively cheaper than Honda city in spares and servicing. The spares of City are not available in the open market. But cielo spares are available in open market but in very few shops in Hyderbad. I have to search for those shops.
Anybody with Rs. 50, 000 can enjoy the cielo car, it very easy to drive and comfortable to sit. Cielo is available for the price less than maruti 800. We can compare these two because these two are discontinued now.
if any of the cielo owner is willing the share the information about the cielo spares can contact me on 98482 57191.
