I live in Kolkata. We have the 2001 STD Model. Recently, we have restored the one with full engine overhauling, and loaded this car with more features. We drive this car every time. I love the Maruti 800. I am a fan of it.

Best Features: Air Conditioning, Music System, Accessories Socket

Pros: Good performance, power to weight ratio, mileage, easy and fun to drive, easy to maintain, easy to drive in crowded areas

Cons: The interiors could have been a little better. Bad smell when it is old, less space in the car
