  indigo lx

  I have bought a Tata indigo lx 3 years back and now i have done 50000km. Fuel economy is 16.8 km/l on local roads in sri lanka. i drive at high speed above 70 km/h and my monthly use is 1800 km. i see this is a good car. i have faced problem with sticky dash board and could not get it mended, had a problem with lower arm rods (left) and got replced and i have seen that is happening in the right side too. other than that i feel this is good car of that price ideal for sri lanka.
