[nickandre]

i drove the car without ac for a few kms and the difference in fe is very less below 1km/l

yup the oil looks good.
how to clean the tyre rubber nick told me but still no use :\

i used normal liquid detergent to clean the tyres.
this is how the tyres looked before cleaning.

I though ALL Hyundai cars come with Bridgestone tyres

You live in India, so don't care much about shining tyres.

that's not right :P santro have bridgestone and i think i10 has MRF. Verna too.

well i know they will get dirty from time to time but still once in a while its good to clean them too.

well once you clean your tires, it will look okayish, but when you use a great tire shine gel/spray it will look fab.
for me meguiars gives the best shine,armorall works the longest due to it being oily.
I normally don't buy things from the petrol pump they don't live up to expectations.

mrf is only on the 1.4 and 1.6 base the rest have bridgestones.

your oil looks way better then what mine looked at 800km, i guess the oil filled at factory wasn't right. The last when i checked my oil some few hundred kms back it looked just as how your oil looks.

Hi Guys i agree with nick, with AC the FE diff is very negligible.

The fuel light came on at 47 kms so that means theoretically another 50 kms that pegs the FE at 9.7!

 

[bobazooka]

hmm , that's the thing i need some tyre shine. i will purchase the armor all tyre shine. thanks. see my thread as well :P

Hey dude try getting Meguiars if you can, Armor All you will need to get the detailers shine the others are not that good.

I'm not getting any time to visit the car market. I have made a list on what all to get and added tyre shine as well. Meguairs ;)

I just wanted to know what about the plastic parts shine ? Like the front grill and the wipers and all. Is there any different product for it as well ?

And nick I don't have the base model :p i'll correct you. You wanted to say the car which doesn't have allows have mrfs right ?

 

[nickandre]

you have the base model in the 1.6 engine option

hey guys, i have recently booked a black SX(O) VTVT, aftr being so confused for many days between city 2012 n fluidic..So jst need to hav a bit of assurance from existing owners regarding the beauty..and also some detailing about the handling issues n long term reliability of hyundai..!!

 

[nickandre]

i have a sx(o) vtvt its a gem of a car. Handling comes as an issue if you corner at high speeds though it isn't safe in any car, the car bounces if the road is not proper and you are above 120. long term reliability should be good. feel free to ask us for any help.

Dude every car has some downsides and verna has it in terms of build quality and the petrol engine is very fuel sensitive. Otherwise its a great car.

Honestly if you still have an option go for Honda as their petrol engines are way better.

@bazooka: thnx for reply brother..My dad is still insisting me to go for city 2012 only..but i feel city is somewat outdated as for now, as i have to keep this car for around 4-5 years and i dont get any features in city which v have in many hatchbacks nw a days..so stil wonderin if i took a right decision..

thnx nick for reply..wel if i stil hav an option to go for V(AT) city 2012 n verna..were should i go..? mind says city n heart says verna..i ws never ever such confused while chossin a gal fr me..

 

[nickandre]

a sensible advise, when you choose a girl with only the heart you may get a goofed up one, but if you choose with your mind you have an awesome girl.

City's petrol engine is well tuned and has hondas reliability and well known ivtec.
verna has more features looks great has soft suspension which are great in city ok on highways. But you will need to experiment and feed it good petrol as it is sensitive to the fuel. Some bunks will give you good fe, while some others will deteriorate the average.
however if you take care of the car it will last more then 5 years.
