Bought myself a Fiat Palio 3 months back. Loved the look, loved the interior space... the bootspace... the power-steering... the fact it looked like the king of small cars... what it made me was a pauper instead... it gives me 6.5kms/litre as average with the a/c on... I might have bought 3 auto-rickshaws instead!!! in terms of mileage in an economy where petrol prices get hiked every other month, the Palio is not the car to own for a self-respecting, no-corruption/bribe-taking person... so if anyone wants to get this piece of costly crap out of my hands, please let me know... plan to buy myself a santro/indiaca V2... other users of these cars pls send me details... I dont want to get duped again...did u also know that water seeps into the boot when u go thru puddles, etc... because the great italian designer, whoever he was forgot to plug a hole!!! so now sponge is being put inside so that water does not get into the dicky!! Italian/Ferrari/Great designer = low mileage!!! if I sound angry here... I am!!!
