I Wud just like to say one thing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,why a person buys a 1000cc car,????,,,,,,,i think first priority is economy,,,,,saftey and comfort are also important,,,,,but for 1000cc in pakistan where ppl dont have huge amounts of money, they become secondary,,,,,,,,,
so talking of vitz as an economical car is just amuzing
one owner just has mentioned that he is very happy with his car,,,,,,,it gives him 90 km in a cylinder,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,thats is just horrifying ,,,,,,,,,,,,a local ill manufactured cultus(as most of the cultus haters say) gives atleast 160-170 kms in a cylinder
the ppl who buy 1000cc cars dont buy it for MERC like comfort (which i dont believ is there in vitz),,,,,if they buy cars for comfort they can easily buy 2003 city and civic in 7 lakh range which are far more comfortable and reliable ,,,,are also provided with huge boot spaces,,,,,,,,,,,absent in vitz,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,so why go for daddddooo looking vitz which is also 3-4 years old,
secondly ,,,,,there is a point ,,,,,,,,somebody has mentioned that new civic and altis are more complex than vitz,,,,,,,,,,,but ppl can buy these cars with 100% confidence that if somethin wrong goes with these cars,,,they can get it straightened bcoz of the reliable 3S dealerships available,,,,,,,,and that they wont have to throw away their car if something is wrong bcoz in the price of the parts u can buy a whole new car
On the contrary no reliable dealerships are available for vitz
the daily maintenance services that are required for vitz cost somethin like this
A.T.F Oil (Type TIV) 1380
Air Filter 1250
Brake Fluid/oil 345
Brake Fluid/oil change (labour) 100
Brake Service Labour 500
Engine Oil & Filter Labour 100
Engine Oil (4 litres) TMO 2000 700
Engine Tune-up (Fuel & Air Filter) Labour 500
Fuel Filter 2100
General Checkup Labour 300
Oil Filter 450
Power steering oil & Transmission oil Labour 300
Radiator (LL Coolant) 890
Service Sundries 34+2 36
from Open market
Fog Lights (w/ OEM Switch) 4200
Rear Hatch spoiler 2500
from KHI
Brakes (all round) 2000
Suspension (front tokiko, rear toyota) 13000
this is just unacceptable for a small car like vitz,,,,just check out the prices of air filter 1250 rs,,while u can get japanese suzuki air filter for 650 rs,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,then check the prices for the fuel filter ....the oil filter ,,,,the labour charges from toyota,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,this is just rubbish,,,
u can well maintain a civic in this much money
and yes this is true that most of the ppl who have fitted cng in their vitz are not at all happy with it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
so what i say is that this is worst car a person can buy in this price range,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but i am not at all asking anyone to sell their vitz,,,,,,,,,,,,its just my opinion,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and it is a help for prospective buyers
if some ppl can afford to buy expensive parts ,,,,,and also have contacts for this,,,,,,this doesnt mean that everyone has such huge amount of money to buy expensive parts,,,,,,most of the ppl lok forward to spent as less as they can ,,,,,,and still be able to maintain their cars well
