Advice: Suzuki Vitara

Hames
By Hames

Hello,

I am thinking of buying a new Suzuki Vitara (around QAR 88k for the full option model), but I have no idea of the resale value of Suzuki's in Qatar. Can anyone help? Is this a good deal?

I was also considering a Rav4, but not sure it's worth the extra money?

Thanks

I have a suzuki xl7 grand Vitara 2003, It is running on 13th year.

I am third owner,But it is a great car in its price. Smooth braking &drive. Strong chassis, No big maintenance required.. Only oil,filter & brake pad changes in regular period. I would really recommend it.I love my car

Dear Hames

If you are worried about the resale value of the grand Vitara I have one (a 2008 model)which I could sell you for a good price abour 25% off the price you were quoted. It has a 4 cylinder 2 L engine, fully automatic, white colour with black interior and has a KM reading of only 7,000 Km. The car is like new. If you are interested please send me an e-mail to j17_mahmoud @hotmail.com.

Regards,

I bought a grand vitara last year XL7 it was for a good price. but i really regretted, the service of teyseer is the worst I've ever experienced: lousy, unhelpful service staff with disgusting facilities. I took me two visits to the service center before i give up and started taking it to other oil changing shops .

besides, the car has many manufacturing defects (according to a friend he is still facing them in his new model): CD player, brake system...

At the time when I bought it it was the only car with 7 seaters with a very reasonable price (67000), but finally It would have been better for me if i bought a pajero or a pathfinder.

On the top of all that the resale value of the suzuki is not so encouraging.

Thanks for the comments.

I love the prado- but it's too big. I'm looking for something smaller in size.

105k is for the most basic model, not for full option. Full option is around 135k. I would still go for a basic prado against a full option vitara.

If you are willing to buy a new Suzuki for 88k, I would suggest you go for a Prado which is around 105k and has a much better resale value.
