Great Car
I sold my Maruti 800 and thought of buying a car in a budget of 4 lacs. I had options of Santro, Alto, Palio, Wagon
R etc.
Taking the mileage thing in option Wagon R and Santro were ahead of all the others. Though Santro is better looks
wise than Wagon R, but Wagon R is more safe car than Santro. Wagon R has unmatched safety features too so that one
can drive with complete peace of mind.
It is a family car i.e. both father and daughter can drive. It is suitable to who ever wants to drive.
With spacious interiors and adjustable back seats, it is a good option to opt for.
I am happy that I made wise decision to buy Wagon R.
