I love the dimensions of the Jimny, and I feel they suit a city like Delhi very well. The car also has a lot more character in a market where Kia feels like Hyundai and Suzuki feels like Toyota. I am not a power paglu, so the Jimny’s calm performance is not a deal breaker for me. However, it does have some obvious issues - no armrest, no proper bottle holder, and it clearly needs a facelift. That brings me to my question: is a facelift expected anytime soon, or is it the end of the road for the Jimny?

The Maruti Suzuki Jimny is small, and its size sure comes in handy on congested city roads. However, the Jimny has a large turning circle, so it's not as easy to drive as a hatchback or other compact SUVs would be. 

While there is no facelift of this Maruti Suzuki car due soon, it's also not going to be discontinued for years to come. As for your other concerns, you can buy aftermarket accessories such as a centre armrest and bottle holders to make your Jimny more practical.

Hi, I’m planning to buy my first car, which I won’t be driving regularly. My budget is under ₹14 lakh on-road. I’m looking for a fun-to-drive car and don’t need it to be family-focused. I’m open to both manual and automatic transmissions, whichever is more engaging to drive and fun.

The Skoda Kylaq will be the perfect choice for your requirements. It has a punchy 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and is available in both a manual gearbox and a 6-speed torque converter automatic.The Kylaq has compact dimensions and has a well-balanced chassis that makes the car great fun to drive. The handling is particularly impressive, and it has a good build too. The Prestige variant in manual guise will fit in your budget, while the Signature+ AT variant works if you prefer the automatic.

I’m looking to buy a motorcycle with strong low-end torque. Which would be better among the Goan Classic 350, CB350, Harley-Davidson X440 T, and Royal Enfield Scram 440? My usage will mostly be in the city, with rare long rides, and I’m not concerned about top speed.

For city use among the bikes you're looking at, the top two would be the Royal Enfield Scram 440 and Harley-Davidson X440 T. These bikes have large, long-stroke, single-cylinder engines, which will have the edge over the smaller 350s you're looking at. However, if most of your usage is inside the city, we'd recommend sticking with the 350cc roadsters from either Royal Enfield - Hunter/ Classic / Bullet - or Honda - in the form of its CB350 trio. These bikes will have more than enough grunt for city traffic and will also return more fuel economy. Take a test ride of these to see which one suits you best.
