Comparison between City and Swift

Apologies for lack of knowledge but is the City the previous generation one or the current shape

Don’t you think the City demand is somewhat high? I’m not sure about it’s market rate on an average but I feel so, especially when two doors have been repaired (Sorry but I don’t agree with the repaint due to scratches excuse)

Anyways, here’s my take:
Cabin Space: City
Category: City (Sub Compact Sedan)
Build Quality: City
Suitability as Family Car: City
Boot Space: City
Safety (ABS): Swift?
Safety (Airbags): Tie (None)
Drive Thrill: Swift (Relative)
Drive Quality: City
Cabin Comfort: City
Newness: Swift
Resale: Equal but slight advantage to Swift as Pak Suzuki is not likely to render it obsolete for another few years
AC: City
Availability of Parts: Tie
Performance on Long Hauls: City
You be the judge

Let’s remain within the subject periphery

To be honest.
I have used both Generations city at same time with swift. (City 2006, swift 2015) then (city 2009. Swift 2015).

Lets talk about the 2009-2010 city as you asked.
I will give just 1% advantage is all aspect to swift.
Acceleration , comfort , drive.

Ac of both cars are almost same, if maintained well.

In pick, swift is very good. (Again if maintained well).

In simple words, its about your priority, if you want a bigger car, city al the way.
If
Newer car, swift os the option.

There are 2 things matter i guess
Mileage and trunk
City got both the points.

If you are okay with the mileage issue go for swift.
Provided if you got a maintained car.

Just saying, i sold mine manual city 2009 , only 94k driven , well maintained, total genuine except 1 bumper 10months back but higher then the price you think you can get an auto.

City suspentions are stiff/hard , my persnal experience.

If you maintain swift good, it will give you good mileage.

The City seems fishy. First of all, the previous gen city was discontinued by 2008. 2009 saw the new shape city. It can't be 2010 model. For a 4th gen city, 1.2 million is a lot of money. I won't believe the meter reading as well, since I feel that there is a deliberate attempt to mislead here.

I agree, 2010 City is of the present shape. The previous shape was last made in late 2008. So if the seller is saying it's a 2010 City but older shape then something is not right.

Best option would be to buy a brand new Wagon R and get peace of mind instead of feeling worried and confused.

If you want a new car, and don't want a Wagon R, you can check out the V2. Though that is also not an automatic, so that might put you off.
