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 ₹3,000 less than our fair price of ₹4.2 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 33,792 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 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.
