Hi,
I am a proud owner of a M-800 since 1999. Three long years and a fairly long drive of 25000 Km. within city of Mumbai & outside till Mahabaleshwar it gives me a pleasure to recommend this car for following reasons:
1) Absolutely zero break-down
2) Great milage(13 Km with A.C. on on long dist. journey)
(17 Km w.o A.C. on long journey)
(15 Km within city limits w/o A.C.)
3) Very Good country-wide service network helps you to get a better response.
4) Cost - This one is the cheapest car available in the range of small car segment.(Just above Rs. 3.00 Lacs, other cars are above Rs. 3.75 lacs on road)
5) Trusted & well established manufacturer.
6) Easy to drive - Absolutely no fatigue.
7) Comfortable seats on front as well as rear with sufficient storage capacity
8) If you compare with Santro, Matiz, Indica-petrol M-800 is still compact in size but equally comfortable.
9) A.C. is powerful and chills inside instantly(of course it depends on the ambient)
Dis-advantages:
1) Weaker suspension gives jerks to rear seat
2) Can not take load when A.C. on and car is climbing up(even on fly-overs)
If you want a city car and for a family of four then M-800 is a best choice considering price and milage.
Go for it.
Best Luck
Niko
