Usually diesels.  Can't drive them in Delhi beyond 10 years. 
  
 You can transfer them out to another RTO jurisdiction and use them for 5 more years. 
  
 Note though, transfer charges are calculated on the invoice value and not on the current value.  Buy price may be low, but a 80L car needs to be maintained like a 80L car.  Spares and most importantly services are expensive.  A 10 yo car needs significant upkeep.

Yeah that actually makes a lot of sense an expensive car needs expensive maintenance but what about 3rd party service

You can find a 3P garage.  In my experience they are cheaper than the OEM garage, but not that cheap.   Spares you'd prefer to be original.

Under 10 lacs luxury car from delhi

Under 10 lacs luxury car from delhi- Grapevine

Welcome to Gadgets & Apps's Private Community

I am planning to buy second hand luxury car like Audi Q3. Is it worth it?

Founder

I have just shifted from Bengaluru to Gurgaon for a new opportunity. Apart from all the cultural differences, the biggest thing I have noticed in Delhi-NCR is the huge presence of 4 wheelers on roads. 

1. Is a car really that needed in Delhi (consider the Summers and Winters) or is it just a status symbol here?
2. If a car purchase does make sense, do you recommend a new/used car? My budget is INR 6L

PS: 
1. My office is 3kms one way from residence.
2. I only have 2 members in my family (my wife and I).
3. I already have a 400CC bike with me.
4. I may end up driving on weekends to the hills.

Amateur car driver here. I was thinking of buying used cars. But the way second-hand cars are priced makes me question the whole logic of buying them.

Budget: Upto INR 6.5L
Usage: Mostly City, 15kms + Outstation on Weekends

PS: We also have a car lease policy in the company. So I guess I can try saving some tax there.

I want to buy a second hand hatchback. This will be my first car and I’ve zeroed in on Tata or Hyundai models. Will most likely use Spinny to buy the car.
What should I lookout for when making a decision? I already plan to get the newest model available in my budget (6 lakhs).

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?

Budget car recommendations

don't buy a budget car. Not worth it. if you  are buying out of your own savings. Then dont buy any  car. Just  not worth the headache.  I have  had two. and am saying this out of experience.  The running cost  is enough to cover your travel expenses.  Within city travel, you  will start hating driving after a couple of months.

I am considering buying a car but haven’t decided the right budget for it yet. Wanted to know how much y’ll were earning and spending on other expenses at the time when you bought your car, as well as the value of the car itself?
Additionally, if you can add the downpayment percentage, that would be like a cherry on the top.

Used Car Purchase

Business Analyst

In a country of 140 crore people, only 6.77 crore file taxes, out of which only 20 lakh people pay taxes with income over 20 lakh. 

The income tax data collected shows only 1.7 lakh people reporting income of more than Rs 1 crore in a year.

 Yet luxury brands like BMW, Jaguar, Audi, Mercedes, Porsche, and Maserati sell almost 35,000 cars every year. 

Also, 45 lakh people have incomes above Rs 10 lakh, but 25 lakh cars are bought every year. That only shows that tax evasion is soaring.

Recently I came across a report in ToI that said earning 80 K per month puts you at top 4% in India. Assuming that the stats is true, do you feel contended with what you earn?

Being in top 5% or 10%, I feel blessed.

Solution Architect

Folks with cars costing> 30-35L, which car do you have, what age did you buy them, and how did you finance them? Like ESOPS, loans, gifts and so on. The number of BMWs, Audis and Mercs has increased on the roads and hence curious.
