Indica Vista Limited Edition Launched!

gaurav911 · 2nd January 2009, 12:06

It definitely is a good addition to the Vista family!
I particularly liked 2 things - the Blaupunkt Music System and the alloy wheels (5 nos.).
However they have mentioned that the LE cars will come with a special registration number plate - what does it mean ? Will it just be bordered by some gold design or will the Tata guys get the customers some special numbers registered for these vehicles ?
Also, is any other color apart from white avaialable for the body(the roof is clearly mentioned to be black) ?

The alloys look cool and makes the car look nicer.

Sorry to say, he's misinformed. ABS is not available on any of the Vista's yet.

Its a regular plate with a golden border. No special numbers or anything of that sort!

Nope, just the one colour option.

If i had the money, i would buy it. This is the first TATA product that i have felt like owning. The fit and finish level is a class apart from the rest of the Vista line up. I give a

to this car.

Good pics there Nick. You are on some showroom-darshan in Chennai ?

The alloys are completely drool maal.. atleast for me

I cant believe that people for once actually want a white indica!

You stole my words

I guess thats why Tata is giving Gold logos

greenhorn · 2nd January 2009, 18:56

technically you can have any tata vehicle's logos/chrome trim gold plated by the dealers/TASS themselves. I recall seeing the rates put up at my TASS ages ago

How I wish we needed a city runabout hatch for the family right now. Can't think of a better car than the Vista quadrajet to fit the bill. And this limited edition looks totally kill-ah!

abhinav.gupta88 · 2nd January 2009, 19:51

This looks pretty good.
The alloys gel good with the white.
The interior is good but i feel will get dirty pretty soon.

raj_5004 · 2nd January 2009, 20:49

this is one TATA product i dont buying even if it does not guarantee a peace-of-mind ownership, total drool worthy!

kudos tata...

motionfreak · 2nd January 2009, 21:09

no offense, but for a moment I thought of Fiat 500 as the ispiration.
but neways..looks good, but i didn't like the gold thingie.

Two things in this car are seriously ticking me off:

1) The steering wheel
2) The wheels spcly the rear still looks to small for this car. It is begging for 15 inches at least!

What about ABS and Airbags. If I am not wrong, both of these features are not available in this car. Serious short coming, otherwise a nice car.

The central instrument panel can be placed at normal location and with that give a very nice smaller steering wheel. Make it normal indica. And let the I20 and Swift run for cover. Rather its so nice that I cannot believe its Indica Vista from Tata.

I was mentioning the things ticking me off visually by looking at the pics, thus didnt mention airbags or ABS. For that matter
