Writing this after over 11 years of usage(yes, same car used over 11 years)
Pros:
Unbeatable reliability. Not a single breakdown in 11 years. Have driven even in rural areas over bad roads, no issues
Super smooth engine and transmission. Buttery smooth gear shifts. Punchy engine.
Adequate space for 5 avearage sized adults.
Huge boot - swallows luggage with ease. Especially the large bags used for overseas trips.
Tight handling, fun to drive. Straight line stability is excellent. Decent steering feedback. Feel confident driving upto 120-140 kmph speed.
Value for money - after 11 years still going strong.
Average running costs. Services will cost about 6-7 k per year at authorized service center(2 services per year). Cost of spares is not very cheap, but not expensive either. It is not as cheap as a Maruti, but then quality is poles apart.
Cons:
Now missing important features(Auto climate control, etc.)
Low GC - scrapes bumps frequently on Indian roads
