I would prefer the ability of my purchasing power first and than reliablity and than cost of ownership

The sensible answer is running costs over the period of ownership but this should also take into account depreciation and that can depend on the brand. The depreciation and re-saleability of a more expensive brand will often be less than a budget brand. However, as with any purchase, affordability should be a prime consideration. Don't buy what you can't afford. Environmental issues and conscience also play a part with some buyers and manufacturers are now reacting to this in their product offering.

Sir

I think cost ownership would be the most important factor if u are not puchasing a BMW , Cadillac or a very high priced car.

For that reason many car cos provide free insurance, free1st EMI and most imp free maintainance for the1st3 years.

The most important factor is simply WHAT YOU CCAN AFFORD
