What to offer
- Dealers who came down on a car like this came down about 2.6%. Ask for a free service, new tyres or the transfer fee instead.
- It already asks ₹46,000 less than our fair price of ₹17.4 lakh, so do not push too hard.
From how far sellers here have actually come down, not a promise. An inspection prices every fault it finds, and that moves a seller further.

What to check on this one at 95,161 km
- Timing chain, not a belt, so no scheduled change. A rattle for a second on a cold start points to a stretched chain: listen for it.
- At 95,161 km the schedule has already called for: spark plugs. Ask to see the bills.
- On a diesel, have the turbo, the injectors and (where fitted) the DPF checked: those are the expensive failures.
- On an automatic, feel for jerks or slip on a test drive and ask when the transmission fluid was last changed, a rebuild is dear.
- At about 11 years old, rubber and electrics matter as much as the engine: hoses, bushes, the AC compressor, and rust in the sills and boot floor.
