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 ₹12,000 less than our fair price of ₹13.6 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.

Owning it
| A month of running it | About ₹24,300Fuel at 800 km (₹6,900), insurance (₹3,000) and value lost (₹14,500), at 2 Oct 2026 Bengaluru fuel prices. |

| Engine oil | 0W-20 |
| Timing | Belt · ~120,000 km |
What to check on this one at 65,000 km
- Belt-driven engine: the timing belt is due around 120,000 km. Ask when it was last changed.
- At 65,000 km the schedule has already called for: transmission fluid, spark plugs. Ask to see the bills.
- Still young, so wear is not the worry: accident repairs and a genuine odometer are. Paint depth and panel gaps tell you more than the service book.
- 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.
- Turbo petrol: watch for blue smoke on a cold start and listen for a whistle or a loss of boost. Regular oil changes matter more on a turbo engine, so read the service record for them.
