Logistic / Plate Charges :6213
Corporate Discount : 7000
Total on road :629498

balance 50% after 11 Month.

further haggling resulted in additional 11K discount.

That's a super deal, you get a sedan @ a price of a hatch .
After 11months you need to pay rest in one shot or you can pay it in emi ?

Also are these 2012 models?

I was at the dealers last Saturday and they had mentioned that they get their cars registered all over India. Speak to your local dealer, if he does not offer this discount, you can always pick up the car from Bombay and get it registered wherever you want.

Yes, these should be 2012 models but of course, they are the new F30 cars.

Hope this helps.

Ritz Diesel is available at discount of Rs.25000 as compared to Rs.15000 discount on the Petrol model. Refer below image for the advert in newspaper:

Saw the following advertisement in today's ToI, Pune edition. I don't understand how did Swift's demand go down in a matter of months that there is no waiting period on it.

Not sure if this was mentioned before. But yesterday saw a TV ad in VH1 announcing Manza starting at 4.99L. It must be for the base petrol variant. What is more surprising is that they are assuring 60% resale value in 3 years time. I suspect it must be for exchange with another Tata vehicle.

Its not just Swift, the loss in sales momentum is across the board. If you notice the monthly threads on auto sales by GTO, the trend has been around a while.

From what i read in RC Bhargava's recent interview on moneycontrol, MSIL keeps inventories for no more than 21days. And because inventories have been piling up at dealers, they have reduced production. I guess the dealers are now pushing hard to get the inventories down to realize their costs.

All in all, if there is ever a time to buy a car you've always wanted, its in these months! The discounts and schemes are pouring in.

Hi,

Just coming from the skoda dealer here in Bangalore, where I went to check for any exchange offers running for a Yeti/Laura. planning to give my Fabia and get the bigger ones. The price offered for Fabia (petrol) was not encouraging. on the other hand he mentioned about a Yeti (2012 model), 4x2 ambition and a 2011 Laura TSI (Ambition) in their yard. The guy was not sure of the prices and asked me to come back tomorrow as their manager wasn't there today.

Wondering what could be the discount I can expect/negotiate for both these models. Appreciate any pointers.

Thanks

The Laura TSI being a petrol Skoda would have lost 30-40 of its value in 2 yrs if bought from another owner. Would expect similar dep for a car lying unused + have a complete service done and get all fluids replaced, check tyres for deformation. Also verify why it was unsold - should not be a demo car, no accident work. Finally if you can push for warranty from date of purchase it would be a good buy

But in Trivandrum, it is always sellers' market I enquired delaers for discount . No discount saarey! If at all we can give you Swift with 2012 rate (difference of Rs 11000/-) Why it si like this in Trivandrum? or the other towns in Kerala a little different? Atleast Cochin, being a bit more enterprising city, might be more friendly towards the customer, I presume. Any info there?

I think Ertiga, Ritz etc has some solid discounts going on for even the diesel variants. Swift / Dzire is yet to feature "there" in Kerala. But the way I have seen, Kerala dealers are like - Take it or leave it, we don't bother about competition! And because of this, no one offers even a single rupee dealer discount!

Has anybody enquired regarding or know the details of the Volkswagen Vento March exchange offer? An advertisement regarding the same was in the newspapers on 15th march (Deccan Herald, Bangalore).

Here's the link from the VW website

This seems suspiciously like the Mercedes finance scheme.
My dad was visibly drool worthy tempted so he inquired and they said that you'd be paying the low emi as per the ads but you'll have to make an annual fee of 5-7 lakhs which kinda defeats the purpose.

[himanshu_j]

Inquired just yesterday.

2, 75, 000 off 2013 320d all trims.
3, 75, 000 off 2012 320d Luxury line.
No discounts however on the Facelifted X1.
2 models of the E92 320d also available at ~24 ex showroom. Colors: White and black.
These were discounts offered by Deutsche Motoren, Mathura road.

T&T Mercedes is offering 6L benefit on E200 CGI. 14L benefits on S300. Only 2L on C220 CDI Classic.

Hope this helps.

I had checked with Elite Motors Volkswagen in Bangalore for a similar ad. They said the car that is being exchanged should be worth at least 4 lacs. This goes as the down payment for the Vento.

Found this ad for Renault Pulse in TOI Pune edition today.
