1) I bought this car in Pune on 4.3.2010
2) earlier I had old zen driven 73000 kms + & now I also have Estilo. 48000 kms + both are excellent cars in their category.
3) I have written my review under estilo category 2 months back.that time I never planned or imagined to buy Honda city ivtec s model.
4) I thank all the members who wrote their valuable experience with this car.I read again & again almost all reviews.before I bought this car .I was in two minds as some members had quoted about low ground clearance, high price of Rs 9.5 lacs, vibrations, etc.
some members were all on for it. Also my friends shared their +ve experiences with this car .
5) I got the wheel balancing done before delivery, as one member had vibration experience.
6) I am pleased to admit that till date reading just over 500 kms & The car is superb & value for money.There is almost all satisfaction of owning a good car.
7) I had test drive of sx4, Verna, even Desire, and sorry to admit that none can be compared on overall features with Honda city i-vtec. Hondas owner manual is a treat to go through for a mechanical engineer & manufacturer for O.E. components.
I think though it is a little over priced , you may go for it. I hope to write after I drive another few thousand Kms.
regards.
