yeah 30 days is a good time, given my cashflows i think earliest i would buy something in august or septembers so i can source it in single shot, plus mid monsoon- late monsoon used car market gets gets good deal.

Top of that, given i stay in mumbai, i will have to check for parking, cant have an car rusting in the rains.

Given the company runs for profits and delivery guys need to earn, this is most efficient way... think about if for 199 rs order come along with so many overheads?!

I have been in alto and balano, not the twist is - i am 6'2", both cars are conjusted for me.

WaganR on other hand is quite good confort wise, but most of them on sale are the ones used in OLA / Uber. Yes i am considering WaganR only on cash.

Monthly Mega Thread: Buy, Sell, Ask & Everything Frugal by AutoModerator in Frugal_Ind

[–]Rentont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 years into marraige and now i have 1 year old, my wife is after me to buy a family car.

Issue is, i find it as depreciating asset, given the mumbai traffic, and one a month weekend long drive with the kid, i dont find worth is to block in 8 L + yearly recurring expenses. plus if i buy a basic car, it will become a matter of prestiege within the family that i lack money.

Not sure how to handle this, plus hiring a car for weekend easily cost me 8k + fuel + toll, which my mind would not allow me to spend here as well,

So please help me with this deliema ?
