Gears,
Red-One.

Yup, looks like FIRE is going to take a while before someone in Chennai gets to own it

Thanks Bubby. I am like a school going kid waiting for his new bicycle.
The ad aired on TV just brings a huge smile to my face.

Topic Related: Did any one notice that Fiat is not making the Linea available to all the TATA dealers. It is indeed a good thing. In Mumbai, not all showroom of Wasan are getting the Linea, which I feel is a good thing. Wasan guys have always given Fiat the Step Motherly treatment and now I am happy that Wasan is not getting the Moolah that they could have earned if they would have given similar importance to Fiat cars as well.

We found before the launch of Linea that the car is out for Sales in Marine Lines branch while its not available in Chembur or other branches.

I had my Palio service at Chembur for first service. Don't have any other options to get it serviced elsewhere who are good for servicing FIAT cars!

Congrats Sandeep. In the brochure white color wasnt mentioned. I think red, silver, golden and black were only colors mentioned in the brochure. I wanna know if the sky blue silver is expected by April.

BHPians who reside in Mumbai and navi mumbai, please TD the petrol available and post the TD report. I guess it is taking a while in South to get of hold of a petrol linea
