Not sure about the fuel economy on the Santro - but it will be a lot easier to live with an Alto - given that they are very common cars and maintenance will be cheap/ part availability is high. 

Bear in mind that at close to 18-20 years of age these cars need to be thoroughly inspected specially for corrosion, accident repairs etc.

Thank you for your reply. Yes. Several other person said the same thing. 

I'm thinking to use grease monkey inspection before make the deal.

Yes a third party inspection is the best idea. In the least take along a mechanic you know
