Of course, this could also be a tactic to force any prospective buyers to buy the 3.0 Dicor now.
Guess the Chennai dealer was right ........I also feel the launch will take another month. meanwhile they will be trying to empty the 3.0L Dicor stock.

Calling all Safari Gurus!!

Now that the Launch time is very near could we have all the Safari Gurus to create a checklist for things to be verified for the Safari particularly before taking delivery of the Beast "Master" 2.2L.

Gurus please oblige.

Thanks in advance.

Auditors anyways work late into the night (its unethical for them to not do late nights ) and they also do get coffee and other breaks

I am sure this thread will take the most prolific scorer of the year award.

I am sure some old timers of this thread can vouch for it.
@dadu, my dadu also use to tell me the stories about this thread and an impending launch when I was a kid. The Safari 2.2 launch used to be my favorite bedtime story.

I think this thread was best kept shut till kdeepakk or someone else turned up with any authentic info and pics.

As far as I know and have been told. The vehicle will get loaded onto trucks today from TATA Pune and will reach here in Hyderabad after 2-3 days. Probably Saturday or Sunday.

No pricing details or technical specification document available with teh dealers yet
