Re: What made you upgrade from your perfectly-fine vehicle?

I upgraded from my 2017 Zen as the AC was weak. No matter what I did, it couldn't be sorted

Re: What made you upgrade from your perfectly-fine vehicle?

I had a 2016 S-cross 1.3 which was running perfectly fine and had touched a milestone of fuss free ownership of 70k Kms. Last year I upgraded my wife's 2013 petrol Figo with a pre-worshipped Vento TSI. The comfort of driving an automatic in Bangalore traffic and driving dynamics of German was enough to start the itch to upgrade.

Long story short , Sold the S-cross got the Slavia 1.5 DSG as a replacement. Gave the Slavia to home minister and took over her Vento as my Daily Driver

Re: What made you upgrade from your perfectly-fine vehicle?

Wife has learnt driving on it and earner her DL too. Sooner, my Boy is about start his Driving classes followed by my Girl.

2011 VW Vento TDI : Sold after running for 1.84k kms. which has made way to Jetta. I absolutely miss it whenever I see Black Vento on road.

2015 VW Jetta DSG TDI : This is my highway queen

Re: What made you upgrade from your perfectly-fine vehicle?

In my case, it was mainly because I needed an automatic. I kept my 2016 Ecosport TDCi Titanium in near pristine condition for 6 years before selling it and upgrading to a Scorpio N Diesel AT in 2022.

It had only covered 40K kms, and if there was any way of reliably changing the transmission to an AT or even a clutchless manual, I'd probably have kept it, as it was otherwise great.
