Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

I am confused about which car I should go for in the petrol segment.

Fronx[10Lakhs]: felt less confident while driving and the seat is quite low so I wasn't able to see the bonut though the mileage is quite good[18-22].

Venue: Drive experience was amazing, comfort was nice, but mileage is 15-17.

Hi everyone, I am a new professional in the workplace (~2 years), and for my own independence and various other factors, I need to buy my own car. I already know the basic specifics of my car choice; I know which car model + variant to buy, along with the Showroom dealer and approximate on-road price of my choice of car.

As this will be my first car, I need to buy this with a loan. If it helps, my loan financing should be from SBI and I am choosing a Maruti Suzuki Nexa car.

I am looking for advice on how to go about financing this car payment via loan, i.e. what are the things I need to keep in mind in terms of the technical details of opting for a loan, whether I can directly opt for a loan with the help of the car dealer or keep the car purchase and loan sanctioning from the bank separate, down payment, etc.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Hey guys, not sure if this is the right platform, but it'll be really great if you can share the long-term review on xuv700 vs Hyundai Alcazar? 

Heard a lot about how good xuv700 is , but how bad their service is. Also, random blank screens, Alexa not responding, crackling sound. 

Whereas no complaints as such for the Alcazar, apart from the fact that it's a bit compact.

Please share your views !!

Guys,
I have a monthly salary of 40000 rs(8 years in IT) and I am thinking about a switch and learning for it. My husband joined a company on Feb 5 and his monthly expected salary is around 65000 rs(5 years in fincrime).
We have around 5-6 lakhs debt, which we are repaying based on requirements. We are seriously thinking about buying a car as we have a 10 month old baby and travel is difficult without a good car, hence we are planning to buy kushaq ambition automatic (~18 lakhs).
We don't have money in hand thinking about taking a loan of 12 lakhs and rest by pledging gold.

Do you think we made the right decision to buy a car now. We have a 15 year old Alto now.

Is it advisable to buy a good car at this point?

I’m in the process of getting a car. I absolutely love cars and don’t mind splurging a bit to get a nice car.

Looking for recommendations: why did you buy it? How much did you pay? Any regrets?

What car do y’all drive? 🏎️

29M here. I live in 4km radius of my workplace and have previously enjoyed living in 2km & 180m radius of my workplace in HSR. I’ve been in Bangalore(HSR) for 6+ years and have never needed to own a vehicle(thanks to Ola/Uber/Rapido, BMTC, Bounce, Vogo, Yulu, Drivezy, and a couple of friends). I often walk back from office as time consumed by bus+wait time = walking back home+5mins. Besides busses are a bit unreliable & often too crowded. I used to work in a startup so I had very little free time to venture out & I’ve been very frugal with money even though I have decent income. I’m fully I’ve always lived way under my means like a tech-bro. 🥲

I’m now willing to purchase one for office commute & to enjoy some solo trips as I might get married by next year. I sort of feel not owning a vehicle(preferably car) could be a potential red flag for the girl(&her judgemental parents; AM sucks, lol) but I’m planning to hold off a car as my commute time(&⛽️₹) will increase and buy a working scooty/bike which can sort of ferry me quickly and cheaply to local meet-ups, relatives’ homes for free food/celebrations. I feel I might miss out on crucial contacts, awesome learnings & above all time(the most expensive resource) if I don’t own a reliable 2wheeler.

Two wheeler expectations:
- comfortable city driving; expecting to not ride more than 20km/day(Scooty wins here hands down as I have a decent place to throw in the laptop bag and keep my spine straight)
- okay road trips for maybe once every two months(sports bikes rule here, no gf sadly🥲)
- low servicing overheads(rules out 2nd hand vehicles, as 2nd hand vehicles as they are expected breakdown more frequently & recurring servicing cost) (EVs win here, until🔋😒)
- as low cost of ownership+purchase as possible (basic bikes like Pulsar/Platina could be a good choice, Ather 450 gets booted out as it’s ₹1.6L)
- likely not an EV(coz once a while I’d like to hit the highways & I hate surprises so no Ola)

Please guide me peeps🙏

Which two wheeler should I buy?

I’m planning to buy a car. I’ve my options as CUV 700 and Safari. I’m targeting AX5 variant in XUV 700 and Pure plus S in Safari.

Safari is costing around 23 lakhs and XUV around 22 lakhs.

I’m confused which car to buy.

I know this might not be the right platforms to ask such question, but I’m also sure that there are lots of folks who are car enthusiasts or who may actually own one of these cars. I’d really appreciate honest reviews or any other options I could go with.
