Salam PWer's,
I sold my santro last month. Looking for a new car now. My budget is 750k. Need something which has Resale, cheap maintenance, economy since the car would be used as a 2nd car at home. The only car which falls in this budget would be a Cultus EFi.
Now I'm looking for a cultus nowadays and all the cars have issues. Some with the documents, some with the body, some with the engine. Should I go for a Suzuki certified Cultus? I mean, is it worth the extra 20-30k?
Thanks.

iDSI gives excellent fuel economy. If you get a good car, it will not break down hence lower maintenance. Plus the ride is way better than a cultus. And the boot.

iDSI in 750k? You sure?
Cause even clean 2004's are selling for 800k nowadays.

You can easily get IDSI in 750k in karachi 2003 to 2005 model

Yup. I'm from Karachi. My cousin bought a 2005/2006 city for 760k. Sold it a year after for 725k. It's engine died and the car's suspension also needed work so No city, unless I'm able to find an extremely clean ride.

yes ofcourse,, if the differnece in just 30k then u should go for it and enjoy one year guarantee,, if u can get a 8 modle at 740-780k then definitely it worths,,in case the ask more than above mentioned price then leave it and start hunting from local markete,, since u live in lahore so u can get a saaf suthri car in ur price range

Bro the local market is full of crap. Cultus's and abused here. I only found one saaf suthri car till now, but it was a non efi

Sorry but I'm interested in something bigger.

i think 790k is ok for a certified car,, if touch ups r minor,,
