Friends, let me give you my experience for swift vdi driven 46000 kms Feb 2010 model. I recently sold this car and guess the price I got? 4.5 lakh from true value and 4.8 lakh from the local dealer.
I finally sold to the latter. the point is that after driving 2.5 years. The only loss in value was mere Rs. 65000 (it originally cost me 5.45 lakh). please note, you will never get such fantastic resale from figo/ polo/ i20/ liva etc.
So if use the phrase "value for money".
