FIAT guys are good at service. Dont get confused by collaboration with TATA. Their service is afr better than TATA s.

Service guys are from Tata dealer only, but the dealer have different set of people for Fiat and Tata. Even the SAs are separate. But service manager is same.

Spare parts price?? Fiat has cheapest and comparable to Maruti's spare parts price. Yes availability is still an issue at some places. I have not faced personally though. And i beleive its going to get better.
Again for coverage, its road side assistance is covering almost all the cities (Even Bokaro is covered[:)]). I think collaboration with Tata is the reason, but it has now much better coverage.

Issue with Fiat is availability of Spare Parts. When the Linea was newly launched there were many customers suffering from this issue, Not sure if the scene might have improved now. Nonetheless, Keeping these aspects aside, Fiat Linea makes a fantastic Value and is a worth every penny.

About the SX4, I would personally not recommend because it seems to be slightly overpriced, otherwise only other few carmakers can offer you Maruti –Suzuki like peace of mind in this segment.

Fiesta is giving lot of offers & Cedia sports has a flat 50K offer!
Yes, Ford has recently released a special edition fiesta which makes the car worth considering and Cedia's offer looks mouth watering, Means it's now available at Rs.9,40,000?

Fiesta I think is offering special limited edition for 1.4 variant.

Now the list is as follows:

1. Ford Fiesta

2. Cedia Sports

3. City

4. Verna

City apart from weak built it has got problem with the shockers as a big thud can make the tyre burst. This problem is with all other variants of Honda's. No offense I mean the car which are failures abroad are successful in India only.

Linea was already out from my list as its under powered and they have not come out with new variant.

SX4 and optra not considering.

How about new Verna.

Verna is a nice car but there are much better options available around. Contact with the Hyundai dealer and take an idea how much discounts and freebies you can fetch with it. If Honda & Fiat is out of your list because of build quality and underpowered engine, Respectively. Consider the Fiesta along with Verna & Cedia.

Can you please tell me which better options you are talking of
Honda city is still the best option available under your price range. Others include Ford Fiesta, Lancer Cedia and Fiat Linea with which you are not satisfied.

Overall, Hyundai Verna is still a nice car but it's time for Hyundai to give a better face-lift so that it can grab hold of customers.

Agree with 350Z. Even i will suggest you to go for the City. Looks the best of all(My opinion), but i think you dont really like city. If only light body is the problem, then dont worry, theres no such issue with CITY.

Fiesta , cedia and linea I am satisfied. I have not said that I am not satisfied. Linea only under power is making me not to consider.

Linea is another worth considering after city if you are satisfied. Regarding it's engine, Initial pick up is low but with the time you'll get used to it. :wink:

By the way, Did you gave a thought to Corolla Altis? But it may exceed your budget.
