I have been told that it is NOT a test drive vehicle. Any specific things that I should look for in case if the deal is good (considering that it is a 2016 stock)?

Update: I didn't opt for it as I am not good at detecting issues with the car. In case if anyone is interested to know, they were willing to offer 1.25 lac discount.

Have booked Ignis Delta AMT instead.

I got a message from the SA that the current offers are Rs.20000/- Exchange Bonus and Rs.20000/- Consumer Offer. I'm assuming Consumer Offer is some Loyalty Bonus for existing customers. I messaged him to clarify but he hasn't replied as yet.

Consumer offer is equivalent to flat discount, no terms and conditions applied, need not be an existing Maruti customer.

I have shortlisted Hexa XMA and XUV W6AT and now it all boils down to price. The Tata dealer here in Hyderabad says that they have 2017 stock and the only offer is free insurance. And the Mahindra dealer says there are no offers at all. I am a bit skeptical about both these. I am sure there will be offers as they are trying to clear 2017 stock and I as a buyer will be buying a Car of previous year (essentially interpreted as a car of 1 year vintage, if I were to sell it immediately). Any updates on offers on Hexa and XUV?

Hi,
, I was able to get a discount of Rs.40000/- on the Honda Jazz SMT diesel model for the 2018 model. Ex showroom of Rs.8.03 L.
Insurance not from the dealer.

Is this an ok deal ?

Other dealers were offering the Honda announced deal of Insurance free+ Rs.30000/- off for 2017 models.

I am not aware of exact discounts but, what exactly is the insurance quote on the XMA from outside ? On the Tata, is the insurance offer applicable for 2018 cars ? If not, then you are indeed getting a discount on the 2017 model - just that it is packaged as free insurance. At this price point and for a car selling reasonably ok - if that free insurance translates to atleast 50k - its a decent deal. I am not sure why the Mahindra dealer is so rigid so as to not offer any discounts at all.

Try visiting both dealers with a cheque book and see what they have to offer. Also, in case you have some accessories in mind, make a list of those and try to negotiate a discount on those.

Are you particular about any specific colours ? If not, visit the dealer stock yard and check what colours they have ( in a subtle way ). Continue to maintain that you want a colour that is not in their stock. In the final lap of negotiations, agree to take a colour in stock try to squeeze out another 10-15k if you can.

Do come back and let all of us know how far it worked

Thanks Narayan. I visited the Mahindra dealer again yesterday. He is offering 26500 as cash discount and another 10000 as corporate discount. He also admits that the insurance amount of 76500 quoted by the showroom is very high and that it can reduce by at least 30000 if I take it from outside. So, all in all, I can squeeze about 66000 for XUV W6 AT. The best part is that this will be a 2018 vehicle. I will definitely try your recommendation and see what more I can squeeze.

Hi All,

I had visited Unnati Motors Pune on friday for checking out TUV300 T10 AMT variant. Overall, the dealer is offering a cash discount of 20000 and corporate discount of 5000. I can save some more by taking insurance from outside instead of dealer. Any other offers / discounts being offered on TUV300 ?

Hi. I've decided to pick up a Renault duster for my dad. The dealer for Renault in Kottayam Kerala is TVS. I've been told that there are MY 2017 vehicles, of which I have my eyes on the RXS 110PS Sandstorm edition which runs a 57000/- discount and free insurance. The SA has quoted 13.11 lacs on road for the same inclusive of all these discounts. Any way I can squeeze more discounts ? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance !

When I enquired with a dealer at bangalore, fag end of last year, he was willing to give - 80000 discount on 110 PS variants. Two years back in a similar situation, discounts ran close to 1 lakh.

Compare with various dealers, even if its out of town. Duster reportedly had huge discounts in December and your dealer might be playing hardball since he is the only one in town.

In addition, Duster may not be the best buy right now. Updates are imminent and the vehicle is quite old now. You might want to check Captur which has been priced quite well, if you are interested in Renault, in addition to S-Cross, Creta and Scorpio.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. Yes I think the dealer is indeed playing hardball. I will surely try to squeeze out more. And the car selection was entirely his choice. I tried to talk him out of it but he really loved it. And I felt it's his ride, his choice should be the one I take. He drove every vehicle you mentioned except the Scorpio. It was ruled out because he didn't a car that big. He was in fact looking at Maruti Suzuki Brezza which was perfect (size wise) but it had a tentative waiting period of 13-14 weeks which was unacceptable. Thank you so much for your input. I've made up my mind to ask a few other dealers as well. But I've been informed TVS is the only dealer in South Kerala. Don't know if it's true. Anyways I'll keep you posted on this !

Thank you for your valuable input. This will surely help me in negotiating a better deal !
