Is it safe&/ worthy to go for used maruthi 800 costing <70,000 rupees?

Currently I owe unicorn-honda bike. Many times I felt it would be better if I had a Multi season(rainy inc) vehicle, and which has lot of space to carry luggage.
And despite of having bike, i spent around 300Rs bucks quite a bit of times to travel 6-10 kms.
My question is would it be worthy to buy a M800, under 70k bucks, (& or fixed with LPG). I would need the car to travel trouble free for 2000 overall kms with/without simple repairs. i.e. the car should move&breaks should work.considering this requirement, can I get a M800 under 70k bucks, fulfilling all these.....??
please suggest...

Thanks all. Waiting for still more people to share their opinion. :)

Dude with Rs.70,000 you can easily get a used zen or esteem which are more refined , hav more space better engines.and they have image compared to the Maruti 800.

Go for a 95-97 esteem with music system thrown in.

You should be able to get an 800 around 50,000/- and a good one.You can get LPG kit fitted, but make sure it is approved and you are able to get it registered on your RC.The Gas cylinder (Black type) can hold 3 refils of domestic LPG (14.2kg). One domestic cylinder takes your M 800 275kms (min) so it works out the cheapest.To transfer the gas a Chinese make pump is available which can transfer one domestic refil to your Gas Tank in a couple of minutes.
Happy motoring

i would suggest that if you u r looking for maruti 800 you would get a old one which would be filled with lots of problem and might cost well over 10000Rs i would suggest to go for zen its better than maruti and have a bit bigger engine which would help a lot or if were you i would wait for TATA nano to come out but the thing is it wont even have the radio so there u would have to sacrifice the feature in nano

well you can get a Very old Maruthi 800 car for 70k...that will drink lots of petrol and maintenance cost also will be a thing to watch out for.. i dont think its worth it.. anyways why not wait for some days for the Tata Nano if you really want to upgrade
