The second-hand market has surged post-COVID-19 due to rising demand and new car prices. We’ve frequently covered the best vehicles to buy used, but today we focus on cars to avoid in the second-hand market.
Nissan Kicks


The Kicks, an early rival to the Creta, struggled with its design, leading to low sales and eventual discontinuation. Nissan’s limited service network and scarce parts make it a poor choice for second-hand buyers.
Datsun Redi-Go
The Redi-Go was an affordable option but suffered from frequent breakdowns and a weak suspension. With Datsun exiting India, spare parts are scarce, making it best to avoid this model.
