Although they are both similar in price , there are a lot of differences. The vitz is a very practical nice small car, holds up well in our roads , it’s reasonably comfortable for a small car, quiet. Good quality interior , gets above average fuel economy. I think the safety model (Vitz) in this case will give you only the auto brake feature and auto Hugh beams. Overall it’s a very nice car for a small family. 
 
The swift is more of a drivers car, a lot faster than the vitz , very responsive steering, suspension is more stiff which results in a bumpy ride in Colombo broken roads, in contrast the Vitz handles these roads much better. Of course the plus side of firm suspension is that it will have better ride quality on twisty roads and roads with good surface (highway, road from dambulla to trinco etc). This model is prone to premature wear and tear of bushes in the steering rack. Quality of interior materials are better in the Vitz, Swift is of course more spacious. 
 
Reale value, I think the Toyota will hold better value. Overall if your the kind of person who takes pleasure in driving and likes modern features like climate control for example the swift will not disappoint. If your not, the Vitz is a nice car which will be easier on fuel, probably maintenance too, will handle SL roads better and I think it will hold its value better as most of the Toyota’s do  
 
 

If your not worried about fuel consumption, resale value and don’t need the space the premio offers , go for it ! The 1.0T will give you the same sort of performance off the line with your foot on the floor as the premio but where is shines is good power at low rpm levels. You will most certainly enjoy the near immediate power it has over the premio in short bursts. Don’t worry about maintaining your buying a new car. Plus Idexx motors will be happy to service it for you as the agents won’t take 3rd party cars into their workshop. If you like the sline variants which gives you big Alloys make sure the car has electronic dampers as with those alloys,sline firm suspension and Srilankan roads will give you a bumpy ride and ruin the suspension faster (different story on the highway though). The standard variant is very comfortable on these roads, the car handles very nicely too ! 
 
Long teems effects ? Most of these cars comes from UK and are climatized for that climate. Don’t know how they will fare over here with the harsh climate. 
 
If you are considering the Premio, it is a very decent mid sized family car which will provide more space , Toyota reliability ,practicality , good resale value, looks plain compared to the Audi, lower maintenance costs.                     You will not have more than half the features the Audi has , you will not enjoy driving it (it’s not bad, it just doesn’t excite you ).
