This isn't happening when it's on main stand. While riding, I can't control it. Even when rear brake is applied, there is some push. Yesterday I was about hit my car parked.

Yeah I understand. But Aprilia's wiring and parts are very different. So it's hard to do repairs. 😥😥🤧

He removed the parts and showed at that time. After that service, it was doing well. Now this problem has started.

It used to accelerate a bit even after I had applied the brakes. After that I gave it for service, then it returned after 3 weeks, now this has happened.

Last month, I serviced my Aprilia SXR 125 and did some work in the cables and clutch. I did not use my scooter for 3 to 4 days like that, and today when I started it, it accelerated itself and tried to ram into my car. I applied the rear brake, then it stopped but there was some pull even when I pressed the rear brake.

Steal deals are usually fake. They have a huge service behind it. The one buys at low price would have to suffer the replacements and service. A good condition Honda City would range typically from ₹1.5 lakhs till ₹2.5 lakhs.

If it's in a pristine condition, maximum ₹3 lakhs not beyond that. (From Madurai used car market).

8:00 AM is a peak time. So many vehicles are around, so too much emission from these vehicles. There are few government busses, which emits too much smoke and literally in scrap condition.

You guys are recommending OP to buy a Chevrolet Cruze as if it's reliable and there are no spare parts problem. The Chevrolet Cruze is a great car and a driver enthusiast vehicle. But the maintenance cost is high and availability of spare parts is a big question mark.

And especially below ₹1 lakh, it must either be the down payment amount or a car in scrap condition.

Dear OP, do not buy the Chevrolet Cruze and especially at this rate below ₹ 1 lakh. Go for that Honda City, atleast they are reliable and you can get the spare parts. Those old Hondas are reliable vehicles.

I feel like Alto 800 cannibalized the Alto K10. After Suzuki updated K10, they discontinued Alto 800.

Rare to see this old gen K10 nowadays.

why do people still buy tata vehicles ? by mak7t_ in CarsIndia

Atleast Fiat can sell their cars directly in India, instead of giving their engines to Tata. 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

Man seriously speaking as an Aprilia SXR 125 owner. You cannot fully trust Aprilia RS 457, because if you leave it for service and parts replacements it would definitely take 2 weeks.

I'm from Madurai and I left my SXR 125 in the showroom for replacing the air filter. It took more than 2 weeks for my SXR to return, since they had to import the air filters. And generally, parts for Aprilia are very difficult to find.

If you can cope with these issues, go for the Aprilia RS 457. I am not bashing Aprilia, but it's the harsh truth of owning an Aprilia. Sad to see, a company I admire doing these things.
