Hi,
I am planning to sell my old Zen 98 model with LPG certified in RC. Somehow I never fell in love with this car. It never gave my any problems though, I had inherited it from my father, after he passed away.
But I had fallen in love with my old Bullet so I knew the feeling, that I was missing something in the Zen.
I would like to buy an used diesel car.
Budget 1 - 1.5L
My relative who knows quite a lot about cars suggested a diesel Lancer but all the ones I saw on the net were about 2L.
Then I thought of Jeep but he said that at that price it would be lying in front of my house like a land-mark only!
Hyundai Accent, he said it is made by Koreans hence poor quality.
Ford Ikon, he said is completely outsourced to vendors so again, poor quality.
Chevrolet, again by Koreans.
Then I saw Tata Indica V2, but he says all Tata vehicles are of poor quality. And I would regret my decision.
Then I after attending a wedding, on my return, I passed a garage. I stopped and enquired about diesel cars and the mechanic showed me a Sierra. Then I felt an attraction for this car. The mechanic said it was about 1.5L, 1998, white, second owner, but there was a problem with the tappet head. My relative again said that Tatas are poor quality rides and have low mileage.
Then I saw a Safari but it was too expensive.
Please advice which diesel car should I get?
