Hey guys, i plan on going for a test drive to check out the Laura TSi. I want to feel what 160 bhp feels like. I called up TAFE and got an appointment for Saturday. Do you think i should mention the bad service received, the combi incident faced by diffsoft?, nummer eins issues and all that? I just want to know things from their perspective. Will they reveal any info?

@rjalihal: To what effect? What do you expect TAFE to do? In any case if you want to talk, talk to Jose (AGM level guy) and / or Shankar (Sales exec).

Honestly the gap between TAFE and Vinayak as experienced by me and atleast 2 others in the forum (ajmat and androdev) is that Vinayak is much better. If your heart seems set on a Skoda, I would urge you to check out Vinayak as well - btw they are coming up with a new showroom in Sadashiv Nagar.

Cheers,

Hi! Near Sadashiv Nagar? Wow, first Magnum Honda and now a Skoda? Any idea what dealership it is and where it would be? The Laura is a beautiful car and I just want to see what that engine is capable of doing! Buying it is a whole different story. Not for now

It's before Magnum Honda showroom and after Talisma office on the same road. Vinayak Skoda has been in Bangalore for about 3 years now. Their current showroom is in Seshadripuram, enroute to Majestic from Malleswaram.

100 % right Vinayaka is better than Tafe,
Though I have bought and get car serviced with Vinayaka, off late thanks to Team Bhp Heard Tafe has improved a lot any expereinces

I have bought Laura 1.8 TSI from TAFE Bangalore. I have interacted with Jose from the beginning and found really good. It is only 3+ months since I own Laura but the experience with the car as well as TAFE so far is good. Day one had an issue with RAT chewing up some wire in the engine bay resulted in some warning light being on, they rectified it promptly free of cost.

Thanks a ton diffsoft! I have always wanted to feel what it is like to drive a 160 bhp car. Got a test drive arranged from Vinayak for Saturday! Hey is the Skoda Octavia 1.8 discontinued? Cause TAFE said so and that only the diesel model is available.
