A seller who will not send them is telling you something. Or shortlist it and send it to us: we call the seller, check the papers and the service record, and tell you whether it is worth a visit.

The listing says
As the seller posted it.
From the maker
From our sourced model data: makers’ material, Bharat NCAP, Global NCAP, SIAM.
Recalls that may cover this car
- 2018: Outer rear-seat belt buckle can be drawn into the gap between C-pillar trim and side panel and become unusable
- 2018: Steering column insufficiently grounded; electrostatic discharge could trigger the driver airbag without cause
- 2018: Propellant mixing ratio in seat-belt pretensioner igniters may be out of specification, so pretensioners may not deploy
- 2020: Seat-buckle housings may not have been manufactured to specification
Ask the seller whether the recall work was done; the maker’s dealer can check by chassis number.

What to check on this one at 59,000 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.
- On a diesel, have the turbo, the injectors and (where fitted) the DPF checked: those are the expensive failures.
- At about 9 years old, rubber and electrics matter as much as the engine: hoses, bushes, the AC compressor, and rust in the sills and boot floor.
- Torque-converter automatic: shifts should be smooth, with no flare in revs between gears and no delay engaging Drive or Reverse. Ask when the gearbox oil was last changed.
