I was in the market for a used car, browsing sites like Olx Auto, Spinny for options. But I ended up driving home in a brand new, fully loaded Škoda Slavia STYLE! And here's the kicker: it was actually cheaper than the used Slavias available!
In this video, I'll take you through my car buying journey:
- My initial used car search: How I explored different options and platforms.
- The unexpected turn of events: How I stumbled upon an incredible deal on a new Slavia.
- The negotiation process: The tips and strategies I used to secure the best price.
- Slavia review: My thoughts and impressions after owning the car for a while.
And a lot more!
If you're looking to buy a car, this video is for you. I'll share valuable insights and practical advice that will help you make an informed decision and potentially save a lot of money. Big thank you to Siddhant for sharing my passion on this journey!

Hi Pranay, I found the video very insightful and loved the format. Congratulations on the new car and on a very good deal! I wanted to ask if there were any risks with buying a model that was manufactured 6-7 months ago apart from the couple cosmetic features that you would not get. This would be the physical condition and wear and tear from being parked in the stockyard all this while. I am assuming the PDI then becomes doubly important but would love to get your perspective regarding that.
@pranayk37
@pranayk37 12 күн бұрын
You're right on the PDI - it becomes very important. But beyond that not much. The only other thing worth considering is maybe the tyres. Their life goes down by a bit but they are covered for 18 months under warranty so I made my peace

I too have a story exactly like this buying new car, we end up buying KIA 2023 HTK+ diesel IMT model in the end. Me and my dad shortlisted Skoda and GV/Hyryder, but diesel preference with great 2023 discount was too much to let go. By the way, our usage is more than 20k kms in a year. So, diesel made more sense. Very happy to see others happiness put together in a video like this. Great work and genuine conversation. By the way, we only checked 1.0 Slavia, and I did not like it - engine not refined in 1.0 and nobody told us this 24th flash sale trick for 1.5L engine. My dad liked Skoda more, the look and feel inside and out however, I was slightly concerned about fuel economy in city for that 1.0L engine.

Not some rocket science. If you buy a 2023 manufactured car in mid of 2024, discounts are bound to be hefty. No one buys Skoda cars in India (market share is below 5%), which is why they offer great discounts. A hyundai or a maruti wouldn't give this much even if there's a small chance that a car would be sitting in the yard for 6+ months!

No matter what even German fanbois cannot resist comparing to koreans in finnesse at a budget, i have seen n number of people in the csuv segment or even one above subconsciously comparing to korean twins in terms of sophistication, whatever product they consider by default compare to the korean twin, here for example he compares the slavia interiors with koreans, there is astor, gv, hyryder, kushaq, taigun but koreans have made it to the subconscious minds & hence attract the sales number & they will continue to do so.

I went on buying the same car on the same day(24th May) but ambition 1.5 dsg with bh registration for 13.7 lakhs onroad. Only difference is i got the kotak insurance with all RTI etc etc package for 23.5k from policy baazar. Car is simply brilliant and is an absolute steal like the one u bought 😃.

Mg Astor turbo is still available, the Showroom wala gave you a biscuit…. Because most of the people don’t opt for turbo because of the mileage issues… coming to Skoda dsg it’s true as that transmission heats up in city traffic and tends to fail and it’s repair cost is very high… Torque Converter/ AT is the most trusted transmission.

My family got that in 2023 and it is a sexy tank equipped with luxury and decent performance! Ours is petrol with dct but sadly it's not here after BS6P2 but diesel would've been great buy too!

Hey Pranay. Thanks for such epic content ! Slavia at this cost is unbelievable. I had a query for you, I work in Bangalore and have been looking for a skoda superb for more than a year, unfortunately, they sell it over here at exorbitant rates. I checked in kolkata and they are charging about 13 lakhs for 2017-2018 models. Here is where I'm confused, should I get a 6-7 year old superb (about 30-50k driven) at 13 lakhs (given, everything like service history etc checks out) or should I get something like a new verna 1.5 DCT turbo at about 18-19 lakhs. The superb will hit 10 year mark by 2027 itself, probably start drilling in my pocket due to big repair/replacements, also lose value really bad. I intend to drive both the cars politely and gently, and keep it for atleast 5 years. What would you do in this case ? In terms of cost of ownership, hassle etc. Thanks a lot in advance, and please keep bringing more such content to us, I barely know any other content creator who talk about real life buyer challenges and problems. Cheers !
