Should I buy a cultus

[depisode]

Hi, I am a female. Don't know much about cars. I have owned a suzuki wagon R VXL since 2014 and it has served me well but its gotten old now and not reliable anymore. I have been thinking of buying a new car since last year but couldn't get myself to throw 40 lacs on a suzuki but after the accelarator cable broke down in the middle of the road I think I can't put it off any longer. Should I buy a cultus? How is the mileage, Ac, tyres other car things that should be taken into consideration....
Please advice........

if 2014 being old is your only concern for changing the car, it is not that old.. it just needs proper proper maintenance.. take it to a well-reputed workshop, they will change the needed parts and fix the issues and car would be good to go on the road. i think it is not reliable because it is not being properly taken care of .. get it thoroughly checked from every bolt to wiring to cables , replace the needful and it should not give any trouble on road..

however, if you still want to throw 40 lacs, go for a slightly used Honda City

Thank you! I do maintain it at least I try.... Have taken it to the dealorship regularly for oil changes and other maintenance...Infact I was there a week back and they said they gave it a thorough checkup and two days later I was stranded on the road with a broken accelerator cable :((( I am in a predicament...
I can't buy a used one. In Pakistan one needs a man for such things and there is none to do that for me....

I understand, it's not easy for females especially to go in workshops etc every now and then.

however, a lot of workshps in Lahore (if you are from Lahore) like Autospot.pk, etc. offer home pick and drop of your cars and they fix every issue all under one roof.. however, it is still a hassle.

For females though, i think ALTO VXL AGS would be the best choice due to firstly it is automatic, it is compatc in size, it is very spacious inside according to its category, and fuel average is the best in currently avaialable cars in Pak (18-20 km/L) plus resale is super hot ... and it would be in a lesser price than Cultus.

however, as you asked for AC performance and mileage of Cultus, the new cultus gives the second best mileage in cars available in Pak and AC is also good.

ATLO is downgrade from WagonR i think

if mileage is not an issue i would recommend u picanto

otherwise if ur budget is above 40 go for city eye closed.

it gives 13 with light foot.

i m not sure whos gonna buy CULTUS with insane price 40+ lac.. i mean wo bhi suzuki .. even Swift interior plastic is not great personally driven.

If you are talking about autospot that was previously on PIA road then Im sorry they literally did a horrible paintjob on my car.
Never went to them again.

yes, i was talking about them... they are now near samsani.. that's strange because their "claim to fame" on Facebook is especially dent and paint repair : (

[pwuser150504674948]

Naah its all marketing gimmick.
The paintjob is literally low quality.
Owner Salman is a decent guy though.
