Welcome to the forum.
I hadn't seen a Hyundai Santro before, so did a quick web search. A 1 litre 4-cylinder? Interesting!

Thanks a lot buddies... yes Santro is a one liter (999cc) 4 cyl car. Mine is a 2001 model. The picture is more like this.
Later versions has a slightly bigger 1.1litre engine. Hyundai has also released i10 with the same 1.1 IRDE and new 1.2 Kappa engines recently. Both are selling fast here. |

Oh, Bangalore.
Good luck using hypermiling techniques on MG road.
Welcome!
So are you looking at the tata 100,000 rupee car? The world is watching with interest.

Hey, I'm Indian too. But I live in the US. Welcome. I haven't been able to come to visit India for about 8 years or so but my friends and family have been there recently and say that it has changed a lot lately, especially with the choices of cars. Good to see you made a good choice over the SUV's that are also available there now.
