I can almost imagine the scene!!! Seriously it gets my goat too when these stupid salesmen try & give me a whole load of bull crap about asthetics & power & how it looks European & Korean & Japanese all at the same time, in one design & one car. This happened just a few days back with the Salesman trying to sell me a Verna by explaining its MIXED design roots!!

I promptly asked him a few questions about VGT, VTVT & rear discs & he guessed he probably picked the wrong guy & promptly sent his GM-Sales to deal with me who I should add understood I knew more than all his salesmen combined & didn't give me any crap. Simply asked me for a test drive & then explained some features vis-avis the Accent like better interiors, fit & finish, rear legroom etc.

I like honest, knowledgeable salesmen but they are a scarcity in the Indian Auto industry. Mostly the salesmen I know or have bought cars from simply give me the car & start asking me about the features & whether I like it or not. No crap, no sales talk since they know I'm gonna bust their bum if they do that!

Anyways pebbles seems like you found a good salesman & my advice would be to stick to him & please do call up the earlier chap & tell him why you did not buy the car from him!! Should be fun believe me!
