Lets meet when you are in bangalore. If i get good price for alloy and tire, probably you can buy from the same guy.
Lets meet for sure. what sunfilm are the dealers giving? I bought Autographix for Rs.2500 and they are good.Hope they dont give you a cheap one for Rs.750 . I want to fill the frond windscreen too as the summer is going to be hotter than before .
What about the keyless entry ? I heard Xenos is the best .

I dont know about brand for sunfilm as of now. If they are going for some cheap ones then i will say no.
Even i want to install sunfilm for front windshield.
Keyless entry is of Autocop (genuine hyundai accessory).
I dont know about xenos. My spark has autocop security system and it works very well.

Check out the link djay , i heard many members telling that Autocop is giving many problems . Better take a look.

I was little put-off by the engine noise on the TD car. I am going to take another TD from 2nd dealer here before taking a final call.

Vaibhav - What car are you comparing the engine noise to? Swift? If yes then buy it with your eyes closed, you will not be disappointed.

vabs , the engine noise is there when at IDLE. I can accept that. But it goes off when you start moving the car . Try checking the noise at 50 kmph speed.

And get better ones right? Mine Xing's first set lasted 40k even though I tried my best to punish it whenever I could.

If you had better tyres I bet you would have been a lot happier.

Whats your odo reading now?

Thanks.
I don't have any experience of diesel cars in past (except indica taxis). This may be the reason why I felt lack of refinement. I am hoping for a change in opinion after second TD this weekend.

I will try to compare with diesel indica.

Are you trying to say Indica Diesel is more refined than Getz CRDi ?

undead,
I am saying that, I will compare it with indica so that it feels good (i am sure that it will) and I feel convinced to buy the GetzD.

Nop. And don't plane to.
Its GetzD or I will go for a petrol car. I am also looking at Logan 1.6 and Fiesta 1.4.

Anyone heard of a possible price increase for GetzD?

I heard that there will be a price increase but for all cars as the input costs have increased . So better act fast as you could.
