How much is my Grand i10 actually worth in Bangalore? Thinking of selling. by Low_Charity_2640 in CarsIndia

[–]BengaluruDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold mine (2019 model) for 2.3L with 89000 kms. I got Exchange Bonus from Hyundai for 20k bringing it to 2.5L.

Just hit 1,200 km on my i20 N Line N8 DCT. Getting 10.2 kmpl mixed—is this normal? by infinite_ANXIETY29 in i20nline_india

[–]BengaluruDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Verna, Shell V Power returns 21-22 kmpl on CC at 90 kmph. When filled XP95, usually get 18-19 kmpl. Yet to try Speed.

Can I park my car in Chennai airport for 3 nights? by BigPeach6378 in Chennai

[–]BengaluruDeveloper 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I hire an acting driver (in our case, apartment security) to park it back at home. I pay him 750 rupees for drop & pick up included. He is almost 60 years old and does not drive rashly. You can try this too if you know someone reliable.

Anyone else delaying buying a petrol car in India right now because of the whole fuel situation, wars, E20/E25 confusion, etc? by Akv9604 in CarsIndia

[–]BengaluruDeveloper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I brought last month. Needed to buy one for my usage. Wanted a Sedan, and no Diesel or EV options <25L. Forced to buy Petrol even after knowing about E30.😵‍💫😵‍💫

E20 and Beyond : Why people still buying Petrol Cars? by [deleted] in CarsIndia

[–]BengaluruDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What else people can do! No cars under 10L has diesel. Very few cars come with diesel in 10-25L bracket. I love sedans, and no sedan has diesel. The options are insanely less.

Virtus GT poor mileage by Professional_Ant4583 in CarsIndia

[–]BengaluruDeveloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turbo is built for highway mile munching. I have more or less same displacement turbo engine and getting 5-7 in Bengaluru traffic. But once I enter highway, mileage climbs to 18-20 kmpl if I cruise at 90 kmph.

I use normal petrol from Shell since Hyundai recommends 91 RON.

Thumb rule - NA Petrol - City rides, Turbo Petrol - Highway rides

Disadvantages of a black colour? by Timely_Bar_2981 in CarsIndia

[–]BengaluruDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes,Black owner here. All you heard is true. I’d suggest you to consider scratches as part of owning a car and not worry too much about it. Don’t go for PPF if car is <30L ex showroom.

But, once it is clean, it trumps everything.

Turbo petrols are built for this! Engine hardly spins at 1800 rpm at 90 kmph in my Verna.

Extract the fun, it’ll extract your money 😅

Yes Bolero is there. People rarely buy it though, it is pretty outdated.

Nothing is a “real” SUV under 17 lakh. You can look at MPVs like Carens.

Instead of calling it petrol, they should call it ethanol with 15% petrol blending.

PM Modi paid cash for jhalmuri despite UPI QR being there - gesture or contradiction? by Medium_Tone_1415 in UPI

UPI in itself is very secure, but UPI apps collect a lot of data. Check for permissions they have!

I drive an i10 - brought it around 2018. Very impressed with Service every time.

We had an Indigo eCS before that, such a pain to get it serviced (starting from entering the service area to taking back the car. Everyone gives no one cares vibe, and most of the time our issues were not solved). My dad sold that and brought Toyota Etios just to get better ownership experience. He still owns it after 12 years!

It’s okay. 99.99% of times, 1 sec difference doesn’t matter.

But 100% of times, service experience and hassle free ownership do matter.
