My test drive of the Suzuki Wagon R

[omar_575]

So you mean rest of the cars have less price.. are you happy to spend 7Lack on teen dabba mehran.. instead of it i would go for decent condition 2008/07 model of santro .. may be vitz. Santro is heavy car with better built quality and its spare parts are more durable than suzuki .. bro a tankha daar person like me would think 1000 times to spend more than 5 to 6 lacks from his pocket on these small shits by PK suzuki brand!

no, instead i would beg for more money from my family and buy a swift auto

Err i was looking like a joker when i was driving a test car,it accelerates good ,it has that swift kinda roar sound but the quality is time passi,the seats were loose , the tires are pathetic,its like car body is put on sports bicycle tires.. for adjusting the passenger side rear view mirror you have to stretch yourself and still you wont reach your desired position ,stupids shoud have given that danda .. paksuzuki lakh lanat

Thanks for the nice, thorough review.
I just noticed that the fog lights have an insane price of 18k. I can get 1st copy fog lights for my gli for 2k with fitting and OEM ones for 4k so pak suzuki is ripping people off like anything: O

Since my father bought this car on launch day. He got a call from showroom stating the car is ready. ( Meaning we got the car within a week )> But we haven't picked up the car yet. It would take 2 more days to get registered and insurance done.

Congratulations bro, we're all waiting for a thorough and detailed review of your experience. Do let us know
Which variant is it? And what accessories did you opt for? And what's the color? And what car do you usually drive (this is important because you shall be comparing the wagon r to your current ride)
The suzuki cars bought as soon as they're launched have the most imported parts, so hopefully you won't face any quality issues.

[QUOTE=omar_575;4341881]for once, a nice looking speedo in a PKDM.

Where is temperature gauge ???

[aqibasit]

but the new santro is priced at:
Club=959,000
Exec=1059,000

thats too much for a car the dealers of which open and close every few months. plus this particular car is not being built any more so parts can be an issue.

Each n every part is available, even the tiny clips. The plus point is that now they are getting manufactured locally as well. So much variety : Local, Chinese, Taiwanese, Korean

theres no temperature gauge.. theres a cold warning light

bro, i still don't trust the company. the car no doubt is better than wagon R (both cars prices are high ) but if I had to choose between them , i would definitely choose the wagon R- the suzuki dealerships are everywhere plus i'm sure suzuki aren't going to wind up their business soon.
and another thing..this model of santro is not being manufactured anywhere in the world. dewaan motors are clearing their old stock.. what will happen once they've sold their cars? will they disappear again for 5 years and then reappear after a few years? their coming and going is too shady. and this time i don't want a car which has copy parts ... i want a car which has genuine OEM parts.

Mean ?? would not be able to see if engine is heating up ?? or not attaining the optimum temperature ??

Congratulations! Pick it up quick because the people at the dealership abuse your car thoroughly and rub crap on the paint;)

It works more like this-
one light says drive slow like a turtle
the other light says pull over,you're about to blow your gasket.
I'd go with a needle gauge any day:D

[dr3vil]

Keep the alto, atleast you've a car which has parts easily available from a 3s dealership. Plus the wagon r is an alto with 2 power windows and double the price.

lol i quite agree, these small suzukis eventually do develop some heating issue after a few years. however the new civic doesnt have a heating gauge either

self edit

i drove my uncles toyota belta in islamabad, it felt weird. it didn't accelerate at all and it was a pain to drive up hills. i didn't like it at all. plus no JDMs for me. my next car will be bought to last 10 years. i need a reliable car this time.
the city aspire is a good car though, if only they would introduce immobiliser in it. But the price is beyond my range.

Oh thats the CVT sindrome, That im hating too for a City my choice would be 1.3 manual for 1522 or at for 1642

So what is the size and make of the stock tires at delivery? .

GT Radial made in indonesia 145/80r13 fuel economy being claimed varies from 18-22 and some claim it to be 16 km/L

Omar bro you review is great you have covered almost everything here, i was thinking to buy this car but the absence of ABS, side view handle, airbags , rear manual windows, small tyres and expensive addons is not bearable i guess we can easily buy a good Passo , vitz in this range with the same fuel economy thanks
