Vijay or Sundaram? Chevy Dealer at Banglore - Team-BHP

mrvenka · 20th April 2008, 08:12

I am planning to buy Chevy Magnum LT this month in Bangalore

. Which dealer do you suggest?
I am located close to Vijay motors in JP nagar so I have been interacting with them and did not find any issues so far (Any way everyone treats us well before purchase), I know that their service center is in other part of the world (sales person told me that they will have one @ kankpura road soon)

Bargain between the two and see who gives the best deal. Service point of view Sundaram is still the best wrt technical expertise. Vijai is still learning. But getting a service appointment with Sundaram is not easy either.

For info on service by Vijai check out the thread http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/indian...ce-centre.html (Garuda is closed. Vijay Motors is new GM service centre.)

As nirmal has said, bargin between the two. The best discount / freebies offered dealer wins and go for them. For A**, it does not matter where you give it for servicing as both of them have to do the servicng of vehicles as they are authorised dealers. But between the two (for A**), I would prefer Sundaram for a simple reason as they are more experienced than Vijay Motors.

I just PMed you. By the way, check for the 3 years cashless ownership offer from Chevy. Vijay says it comes free with the OTR price. But Sundaram says (after the booking

) it costs 17K for the Aveo.
So, please check all paramaters before deciding.
Good hunting...

I've been interacting with Vijay for a long time, and most of the people in the new Chevy workshop are from the erstwhile Daewoo days (Vijay was a Daewoo dealer, one of the reasons they picked up as soon as Spark was released). And most of the Chevy cars are Daewoo re-releases !!

I have had good service from Sundaram for my 2 Optras and 1 Mercedes. I would recommend them.

Plus, I got a good deal for my chevy compared to what the erstwhile Garuda offered me.

I suggest Vijay, they are new & they will try to impress customers to grow their business...

I had a bad experience with Sundaram, nobody attended me for half an hour & it was around 5pm in the evening & dark inside the showroom. Asked security to on the lights, he said no sir, if i ON the lights people will think showroom is open & they will come inside. When i escalated the same to sales person, the answer was same. Some how these people are not interested in selling? They used to do the same thing when they had Fiat with them.
