I'm not considering Innova and XUV since I personally don't like them much. Appreciate your feedback.

I know from a trustworthy taxi driver friend, that the aria is super powerful when compared to the innova and that noise insulation is also better than innova. On top of it, he also pointed out that the ride quality improves a lot as you keep adding more people and more luggage. He even went to the extent of saying that once he has sat and driven the aria, he does not want to drive innova anymore. However, be wary of electrical issues and T.A.S.S service levels.

I was looking for a Grande Punto in July-Aug. Pushed the dealer for a 1.25 lakh discount on the 1.3 MJD Emotion variant including exchange bonus. Hope you can extract more with the Evo launched.

Push for not paying handling charges, etc. Also if exchanging push for a higher price for your existing car. I was finally offered 1.15 for my Alto Lxi 2007 model having done 85k. Had new wheels and tires on the Alto though, the insurance was also done for a year, and the service was done a month ago.

Good luck.

I am ready to buy a new Renault Duster RxL+. The On road pricing in the Proforma Invoice form is Rs 11,72,472.
The breakup is as follows:
Ex showroom ---------->9,99,000
Life Tax 12%----------->1,20,380
Insurance ------------->35,692
Handling charges------->9,900
Standard Accessories--->4,000
Permanent Registration-->3,500
Total------------------->11,72,472

Any discounts and offers that i am unaware of? Is this a good time to buy OR should I wait till year end?

I had just checked for a 4wd Duster and the Coimbatore dealer is quoting the following.
4wd RxL Diesel (invoice) regular price is 12.10 Lakhs, but the SA said Renault is offering a 'year end /November bonanza' at Rs.11.29 Lakhs (invoice) . Guy also added that this is an all India pricing. Maybe they will have a similar deal for the model/variant you seek. Kindly check at your dealer.

Guess the sales figures /projections are finally reaching the right ears.

Still should appreciate Renault in reading the logic behind the loss faced by the year end buyer-in terms of model year matter and offering to compensate a bit.

Thanks for the heads up jmktm, will surely find out about the deal that you mentioned in your post above.

I got the offer from TafeReach for Safari Storme EX in Chennai:

TML offer: Rs. 20,000
Dealer Offer: Rs 5000
Corporate Discount: Rs 7000

I beg to disagree that TML is giving only 20K disc. on Storme. Last month it was almost 80-90K. Moreover, everyone on this forum knows the numbers which Storme sells, upgraded version around the corner and this is year end.

Anyone heard of a better deal.

hyperVtec : who are you in touch with ? Saravanan is the SUV sales team lead (when i bought the Storme ). Try checking with him for a better offer. I think there is room for a bit more ( not too much though )

Yes i am in discussion with Sarvanan. He has given me this quote.

Actually i was expecting at least 40-50K TML discount, which was a pretty regular affair from last 6 months. Not sure why TML reduced discounts on a slow moving (selling) vehicle which is due for upgrade within next 6 months at the year end.

if this is the case, doesn't it make sense to wait and buy a 2015 manufactured car with 2015 registration?

Hi folks, I got this offer from LB Nagar, Hyderabad, showroom for Renault Scala RxL Diesel Travelogue:

Ex-Showroom Price : 8,05,600
Life Tax at 12% : 97,172
Insurance : 29,105
Handling Charges : 8,000
Standard Accessories : 5,164
Reg & Teflon Charges : 6,000
Travelogue Kit : 53,000
On-Road Total : 10,04,041

I'd appreciate any thoughts on this. I like the offer on ex-showroom price. But, I think insurance premium is on the higher side compared to the quotes found on policybazaar. Also, the handling and "Reg & Teflon" charges are something I am unable to digest well.

Guys, someone in the family is seriously considering buying the Q3 premium+ in Mumbai. Any ballpark figures of discounts/schemes available for the same?

Not sure of discounts on the Q3 but the X1 is on big discount (almost 10 lakhs off) since there is a big stock of 2013 cars with dealers. Atleast this was the case till few months ago.
Do let me know what you manage on the Q3

Q3 and Q5 apparently have a waiting period, so doubt much will be available. The best bet is to wait till next month, there will be discounts at the year end.
