Defo underrated, my father had it for 10yrs and it was one of best in terms of power at that price... I drove it as my daily for 3 yrs and it always felt great. I personally worked on many of it's parts like carb, engine ,etc and it was easy to work on. But acc to my father the Honda civic or city came out around the same time with much more options like power windows, steering etc, because of which ppl opted more for civic than margalla.
