Maybe hushed up in Bombay but the deal was advertised in both of the major daily's Delhi weekend editions a fortnight back.

Probably they should consider adding 3 year free Insurance as well

They had contacted me with a deal on the E200 at the start of the month. The OTR of the Car was 46lakhs and they had offered the the car to me at an OTR of 40lakhs and additionally the Petrol Card worth 2lakhs. I'm surprised with this OTR of 34lakhs. Are you sure it is the OTR and not the ex showroom price?

On road Prices for variants of New Fiesta D in Kannur, Kerala

1. Style - 10,36,000
2. Trend - 10,90,000
3. Titanium - 11,34,000
4. Titanium+ - 11,61,000

Further Rs.28k discount on the above prices. Since pure driving pleasure is whats on my mind, I have a strong inclination to go the base style which anyway has the essential ABS and Airbags.


What say folks?

Original on-road is 44.5 lacs - Mumbai, Individual.

So discount comes to almost 10.5 lacs without counting the petrol card.

Pls check the figures again. Its way below what was advertised in Mumbai as well as Delhi. The only thing common is the petrol card.

@ACM - I'm not too sure about the cars having the new COMAND system. Might be the older cars without that hence the deal.

Mods note: Thread merged.

Figures! What figures??
My only point was that there was nothing hush hush about the deal as it was advertised openly in Dilli-NCR.

Well, i am neither

While driving home yesterday via Chennai's bad roads, i had my Fusion's bottom slightly scraped on the road. This has put me into a big confusion as with 197 mm of GC, if the roads get to touch the car's bottom, what will happen with 168 mm of GC? God, this is getting no where.

It is not only GC but the wheel base, especially for speed breakers. The longer the wheel base the smaller the angle between the wheels and the car bottom, and more chances of a curved speed breaker hitting the bottom. That is why Alto with its 160+mm GC scrapes a lot less than 190+mm GC long wheel base vehicle.

Your point is right, but this is true in the case of speed breakers. But in case of uneven road surface, damaged by truck movement (the ones with deep trenches made by tyres and the elevated surface in the middle); these cause a lot of problem for low GC vehicles.

What holds for speed breakers, holds for deep trenches also. For potholes bigger diameter wheels fare much better than smaller wheels (which can drop in fully in some cases!)

Where higher GC matters is in case of boulders. Here the wheels are outside the boulder, so it is the GC that determines how large boulders you can traverse. For deep ruts, especially where created by larger vehicles, a narrower track is the best solution. I have traveled in an Omni, which zipped between deep ruts created by trucks. On the same road, the wider tracked SUV had to travel with wheels on one side in, and the wheels on the other side out of the deep (> 15") ruts.

Visited Chennai Ford yesterday. I will be going in for the Titanium Plus. I finally got a discount for 38 K with the mats, mud flaps and 3M wax polish as free. The OTR in Chennai is 12.42 Lakhs (originally 12.80 Lakhs).
