Need To Buy A Car Around 1.7-2.3M. Please Help..

Question

Hi guys

My budget is up to 2.3M. I’m traveling appx 40km per day and looking for a reliable car. Japanese or European. sedan or hatchbacks. Previously used Toyota AE110. need at least 10km/l fuel economy but not expecting maruti or hybrid like figures. not much into Indian makes and hybrids anyway. Hoping to use this for another 4-5 years and not much concerned about resale value. below mentioned models are in my mind and don’t have much knowledge about their parts availability, Reliability or the maintenance/service costs. really appreciate your valuable inputs. Thank you.

- Peugeot 406 D9 (Petrol/Diesel)

- Peugeot 307

- PROTON Gen-2 (2004 or later Model)

- Fiat Grande Punto (Diesel)

- Renault Laguna (2004)

- Lancer CS1

You can find more details by searching the forum.

I don't know much about Fiat GP (VVTi might help on this) and Renault

But I did a study about Peugs when I was looking for a car

For the mentioned budget you can find a very decent 406 D9. (I'm still loving this car but hesitate to buy as first car).

harshansenadhir is the Peug expert here. Search his posts, you can find hell lot of details where you can find all the details you want to know with specialist's contact no's even.

If you go for Lancer CS 1 - 1.3L, it'll be little under powered as it's a sedan.

VVTi,
