If you see thin horizontal lines running across the rear glass, a rear defogger or 'heater' is present. Remote boot release. Remote fuel lid [? Most cars have either a cable release accessible from the driver's seat, or a push release that unlocks with the central locking.
ABS [? It regularly will shorten on-road stopping distances as well. A must-have that is well worth every paisa. EBD [? Helps immensely in differing situations like when the vehicle has only one occupant, or all five. Or even if a single wheel goes off into the dirt, EBD could be the difference between a scare and a crash. Airbags [? In cars with eight or more airbags, they practically surround the occupants in a crash, insulating them from the worst.
They need to be used in conjunction with seat-belts, else they aren't effective. Traction control [? This helps maintain vehicle control. ESP [? Engine immobiliser [? Auto headlamps [?

A lighter car will use less fuel, be quick, and change direction more readily - all positive characteristics in a car. Safety features like ABS, airbags and even crumple zones add to the weight of a car, but not by much. While i bought the car from tafe regretted it later. The guys at vinayak are technically sound atleast the GM and he was able to solve a few difficulties on mine within minutes because he knew what the issue was vs tafe would failed to do it even after leaving a new car with them 2 times.
Laura vs Octavia - yes the laura is 2. On a driving perpective i too test drove the Laura and Octavia back to back and felt the same as you do in terms of driving pleasure specifically in the city. I have also done a comparison on the spares basic and am attaching the same for you. Also chek the OCtavia product catalogue which the Skoda guys had sent me. Rgds hitin.
Attached Files Car Comparision Mar The understanding given by the Skoda and the delaers is that the octavia will not be discontinued for a few more years until they launch another car in the same price range. Why wuld they lauch new variants if they had to discontinue. Maruti still sells the Thanks Hitesh.
You got quite some discount Contessa, if you can afford it go for Laura. Its a newer design at the end of the day, and i have had brief experience and the car really rocks. Octi somehow shows its age, i would rather point towards a Optra D under such a situation. Thanks Jaggu. I've owned an optra for 3 years.
Its a beautiful car and well built one. Replacing parts are not very expensive either. However there is one problem that i had with the car. On bad roads, if i hit the bottom which often happens due to the soft suspension, i suppose there is a good possibility of something going wrong. I've replaced three parts due to such hits in three years, including the silencer. The car needs to be driven with care over bad roads. Since i often go on long drive and take pathetic roads, i thought a well built skoda with a stiffer suspension would be of great help.
I too recommend Vinayaka. Persuade them to add the keyless entry as an option. TDI is believed to be a more robust engine than PD. It is simpler, cheaper and more forgiving in terms of fuel quality, etc. PD is more expensive because of unit injectors, etc. Apart from the 'newer feel', Laura has few differences AFAIK : Independent rear suspension All disc brakes Little more space in the back Better safety and comfort equipment level depending on the variant Probably an improved chassis compared to the older platform Stretching budget for a car is not a sound financial move.
I would probably look at "almost-new" used car. Proudly powered by E2E Networks. User Name.
