Dealer experience can make or break things and I hope that the experience with servicing remains the same.

Do post the pictures as soon as the car is with you.
Thanks man! Will post the pics for sure when i get the car!
OTR comes to around 4.4 (excluding the accessories) after the cash discount. Few Hyundai owners i know, including my boss, recommend Popular Hyundai over Hilton for their servicing. It's due to them that i decided to deal with this particular dealer even though a nasty incident is associated with these people. Maybe, the bad publicity, has changed them for good.

Just kidding
Thank you Jaggu bhai!
Free flaw exhaust has been excused...hehe No free flow for the car anytime soon, but instead will go for a mellow end can by Remus or similar later
Regarding CAI i have no plans for a conical kit at the moment, but a drop in K&N or Green replacement filter (is it available?) is on the cards!
The Philips HID kit i've installed in my Karizma is coming off soon, after 1st service, HID will be cozy and comfortable in it's new home inside i10's hood But i'd prefer to mount it inside the fog lamps if posible, but that i guess is not possible since the HID has a H4 P43 base. Any inputs?

Will be looking forward to the pics and the initial experience. Planning on any wheel upgrades and tints?

How much did they charge you for the fog lamps?
Thanks Benny Boy! Yeah there was this slight tilt towards Swift LDI, but as i mentioned before the lack of basic equipments doused the enthu. If it had 4 door power windows and central locking we would've bought it. Power windows and central locking could've been added on later, but then it wouldn't feel good and well integrated as OE system imo.

Wheel upgrade will be done but not now. When it's done it will be upgraded to a 14incher with 185 section tyres. Tints will be done but not from the dealer, i don't like dark tints very light shades is ideal. Best would be clear film with UV and heat block, will go for that if it's not too expensive. They charged 3900 for the fog lamps. Will put up pics as i take delivery!

Congrats Sankar.

Over the past 3 days, my roomie, colleague and bro-in-law all bought i10s
Thanks mate! Tyre upsize will be done but not now. I'm not much of an ICE person but i do appreciate better quality sound than OEM speakers would pump out. Head unit is integrated and it will be left untouched. The OEM speakers will be changed for better items after consulting with local ICE gurus!
