service quality is ok but not great

It seems engine oil filter cost si Rs 330 for Vista Q jet, where as the same for indica family is 95-100 rupees only.

Problems sofar

Ac is not adeqaute. concorde motors say it is normal. but iam not satisfied. my brother's Indigo Marina with otu inter cooler has better Ac than this.

The car was scrapping speed brakers when three persons are seated on the back. it was rectified after three complaints.

Door handles are little filmsy . entire thing ( which includes power window swictches) came out twice while trying to open the door.
excellent review, short and gives complete information. I hope others will learn more from your review and don't talk garbage about falling in love with their new car and long story ahead, it just stupid and boring to read!
