Default Fiat Sales & Service @ Tiruvalla, Kerala

Folks,

I am in process of purchasing a Fiat @ Tiruvalla.

I am not able to find much information about the Fiat dealers & A.S.S centers in Tiruvalla!

Please help me with this info!

I don't think Fiat has a dealer/ASC at Tiruvalla.

The nearest will be Trivandrum (Kulathunkal Motors) or Cochin (Concorde motors, RF Motors).

How about anything in Kottayam!?

Atleast the A.S.S center @ Kottayam would do fine!

THere should surely be some tata dealer at kottayam. But the FIAT site does not mention of one.
If you want to get it from tvm i could help you. WHich car are you looking at?

Kulathunkal had a place in Kottayam (with a 'Palio displayed here' banner) about 300 metres after Hotel Aida.

Great! Thanks Folks.

@Gemi, I will do a check in Kottayam, if its not working out then I prefer to take the vehicle from Trivandrum. I would need your help!

Sure. Do let me know. One suggestion is to let me know before you meet any sales people. Once they know you will buy anyways they wont budge on any discounts. But if its the GP not sure if i can get you any discounts but we could surely give it a try.

Gemi,dont bother ,they will never do it buddie for a product in this demand.Fzor example there is a corporate offer running for the base linea but ask them for a top end one -no discounts ,reason is that it sells like hell.So anachronix i can help you if the car is bought from kulathungal ,tvm or kotayam.which is the model and color choice?i can ask them to block one now itself over phone.

I am looking at the MJD Dynamic in Exotic Red (The infamous red colour that came in the Palio).

@Ram & Gemi, I will TD the GP when its launched here in Chennai and then go with the booking from TVM/KTYM .

@CarFreak, I would soon join you in the search for a good Fiat A.S.S

have been able to get some freebies (other than the crap mats/mudflaps) for a friend of mine when the mjd was just launched and no discounts were being given. But in a few other cases where they went directly and then told me about buying the sales guys said they could not give any discounts on new model. Thats why i said inform me before you contact them.

Do let me know if you need any help from my side. Its just a try. No guarantees.

Do take care.

When you book it, please confirm that if you book at Kottayam whether billing would be in Kottayam. They may have just have an office and booking facility there while billing would be from trivandrum. If it is like that, there is a likely possibility of them driving your down to Kottayam from Trivandrum for delivery.

Focuz is only for service, they do not sell Tata cars and I doubt they service Fiat cars. I have not heard good things about St Antony's.
