I would also put my vote for Swift ..... I have been using Gli (2007 and 2010) ..... prob with me is I cant keep any car for a long time ..... I recently sold my Gli 2010 gun metallic and bought Swift ..... I know its brand new and all brand new cars attract at first point .... but I have to say, I was amazed at Suzuki ..... its not a typical suzuki thats been sold in Pakistan for ages. Its much much better ..... let me share an experience.
I never had a car on CNG ..... so all am talking about is petrol.
I went to Pakistan on 23rd july and on 27th me along with 4 other friends went to muree/patriyata and then back to ISB .... this trip was on Gli 2010 (7800km ODO reading with 205tyres) ...... I picked the new highway route to muree and I do agree some of the hills are really steep ..... all the way to mall road, I dint switch off the AC. Some curves I had to shift to 1st gear just because the car in front of me went slow on curves ...... so all went fine and went I reach back ISB I calculated and it consumed exactly Rs. 1200 petrol .......
A week later, I bought Swift and sold Gli ...... and guess what, again I went to muree (same friends, 3 on back seat) ..... I agree the seating is not that comfortable but I was amazed at its performance ...... I agree due to rainy weather, I dint put AC on but still hardly twice I shifted to 1st gear ...... it went all the way smooth and places where Xli's and Gli's where slipping (due to wet road and mud on inclination) swift was REALLY SWIFT ..... braking and handling no issue at all ......cutting the story short, we had the same route and back to ISB and calculated again and it consumed exactly Rs. 1110 petrol whole trip ..... with 195 tyre ....
Dunno whether that will make a point or not but reason I wrote this is, I was planning to buy vitz but then rejected the idea as 1000cc is not that powerful and long lasting plus 1300cc I cannot get brand new here in pakistan, and a second hand (almost 2 yrs driven on auto tranny) is not my choice.
Last but not the least ..... Gli = 14lac -------- Vitz = 13lac approx. ------ Swift = 11lac
So I settled maself down at Swift coz I wanted a smaller size with good engine power and at low price ....... !!!
Habibi ..... Toyota is just ripping people off big time !!!
I hope my opinion will remain same for Suzuki swift as its a talk of mouth that run this machine for atleast a year and lets see what problems it show ..... but am keeping my fingers crossed.
