re: The "NEW" Car Price Check Thread - Track Price Changes, Discounts, Offers & Deals

Not sure if our car market has changed or am just unlucky. I had been scouting for a new car and had dropped by VW Banjara for Vento TDi, left my number with Renault Banjara for Duster, Kun Hyundai Kondapur for Santafe, Pride Honda for City iD-Tec, Skoda Banjara for Octavia.

Except for 2 SMS from Renault and 1 SMS from Honda, no body bothered to respond. This is when auto sales are down and typically there would exist a mad rush to clear 2013 cars.

1st week of month is honeymoon period for most sales personnels. Try this in 3rd week, and response will be much better.

Be happy that Skoda / VW has NOT bothered; probably those are GOD send signals for you!

Santa Fe is CBU, so they would NOT have any unsold stocks. Probably they may NOT take orders as the new Santa Fe is launching on Feb 4 or so.

Please let engine running-in for at least for 5K-10K Kms before adding RD box. I hope you will remove it before each service.

Toyota Etios Liva

Had been to checkout the Toyota Etios Liva in Bangalore. Prices have been increased by 16 K for 2014 models. No stock of 2013 GD version except grey color one at Ravindu Toyota.
Max discount offered for the new models is 15K.

I am interested in the top end model in Pune.
Discount on 2013 Nano LX:
Cash discount of Rs. 15000 (apparently for the first time ever for LX in January)
Exchange bonus: Rs. 10000

On road price in Pune is 2.66 lacs without considering discounts.
Rear bench does not have 3 point seat belts and I am wondering how to fix child seat in there.

Assuming that you are able to fit a child seat, do remember that the seat is directly above the engine and besides the higher than normal NVH levels, it's base does heats up which could increase discomfort.

Any idea what's the discount offered on the 2013 model?

What! NO SIR! the rear seat doesn't heat up or anything. The Engine temp doesn't affect the seat in any way. ONLY the bootspace floormat gets a tiny tad bit warm after a LONG (80km+) drive. I don't think even the NVH is even an issue when inside the car.

If you have time please test drive the car again and see.

Bought VW Polo GT TDI from Palace Cross, Bengaluru on 28th Dec 2013

Total On-Road was 9.5 lac

Another buyer was bargaining for a 2012 Vento TDI Highline for 10 lac and looked like he got it.

Even for 10l, I don't find vento deal to be lucrative, that's like 2 year old car now.

My friend and myself did have a chat with him and it was late 2012 model and he didn't care about the mfg year as long its new. I guess the current price for the Highline is at 12, which means a discount of nearly 2 lac. And as he was buying it in 2013 Dec, it would have been just an year old. We wished him luck and resumed with our discussion

Do dealers give any discount on the base models ? Any offers available on the 85ps Rxe Duster ?
