Maruti Dealers Fleecing in Swift Accessories - Team-BHP

talk2anand · 30th May 2006, 19:31

Hi Buddies
I am going to get my Maruti Swift Vxi (with ABS) this weekend, in Mumbai. I talked to my dealer and I was given the following details about accessories:
1. Anti Rust -- 3375 (2 years warranty)
2. Teflon -- 4050 (1 years warranty)
3. Nippon Security System -- 6145
4. Reverse Sensor -- 6000
5. Gear Lock (Autocop) -- 3000

The rates given above, I believe are plain robbery.

I read the following somewhere else in the forum http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/179951-post5.html (Accessories for Swift)
the following:
================================================
Security System MGA (Nippo) 4290 From Saboo (Car Dealer)
Taflon Coating 2 year package 3000 From Saboo (Car Dealer)
Body Cover 550
Seat Cover 1000
Seat Cushioning 160 Needed som Hight!!
Mobile Charger Nokia 120
Sun Control Film 900
Door and Bonet Bidding 400
Parcel Tray 650
Perfume Bottle 300
Sony System 250S, CD/MP3 player 7600 2 year warranty
Sony Sterio (Front) 170 watts 1600 1 year warranty
Sony Sterio (Rear) 220 watts 1800 1 year warranty
Reverse Sensors P2: (beep and digits) 2250 1 year warranty
================================================

I believe this guy has got a very good deal. Can someone please help me if it is possible for me to get the Central Locking Security System (Nippon), Reverse Sensor, Gear Lock at a cheaper price, some place in mumbai.

Thanks a lot

Anand

which part of mumbai do you live in?

South - Central Mumbai, you can try any of the shops in Opera house,
Bandra - Santacruz side I believe Milan Subway is a good place to go.
Both these places have several shops so you can find the best deal.

Basically a dealer will pretty much always charge a fair bit more than an independent shop.

I'm not really familiar with that area, but look around and ask in a few shops to get an idea of what the right prices should be..

Your best bet is to go to Milan Subway. Alternatively there are also some shops around Mulund but not as many as Milan subway.

I think the guy at the dealer just took you at a ride. The prices are simply robbery. The price at the earlier post is exactly correct, even here at Kolkata.
