Hello everybody

Hi,
i was introduced to this site by one of my friend. From then i have become a fan of this site.

Well i dont have a car, but planning to buy one soon.

After going through lot of reviews, i am now inclined to buy FIAT Cars. YES, u heard it right FIAT.

Today i just called up on the tata dealers in bangalore and enquired about FIAT adventure and LINEA.

Guys the looks of LINEA is unmatched. The dealer said ,the booking is expected to start from October but he couldnt able to provide me any dates.

i want to ask 2 questions:
1) WILL LINEA BE WORTH OF WAITING ? coz i believe it will be in indian road by december.
2) Which dealer in bangalore is good for Fiat cars? Please share your experiences.

Hope LINEA 1.4 100 bhp comes with 8lakh not more than that on road.

I want some suggestion from the expert panel here regarding my desicion. Remember this is my first car so i want nothing but the best . I am not much concerned about mileage.

Feedbacks are welcome.

Hi there,

Welcome to Team-BHP.

You've not told us anything about yourself. How old you are, what you do and so on. Please do tell us, as this is an introduction thread.

You will find many Fiat Fans on this site. The Linea is being discussed here and here
I am sure you can find more.

Welcome once again and do not forget to read all the rules, before you start posting.

Cheers
Sam

Howdy, welcome to the forum.

great to see another Fiat fan here. The Linea will be an excellent choice, (lets wait for the pricing) though I dont see it coming out too soon.

Go through the Indian Car section, you will find a lot of useful information, even on the Linea.

Cheers
Karl

madaboutCARS, welcome to the forum and to the Fiat fan club! Great choice with the Linea but I think the dealer is taking you for a ride if he said that the car bookings will start from October. To wait or not is your choice but I am expecting a good product from Fiat again. Enjoy your stay here.

Small intro about myself:

1) Working for SPI Mysore as Test Lead.
2) Going to buy my first car.
3) Actually wanted to buy LINEA but changed my mind.

Tata dealer in bangalore gave me these details regarding Fiat Palio Sports. I want to know what else i should ask for and is the delear bluffing me on the following points:

1) On road price as per them: 5.05 lakhs -- Is this true?
2) Only 3 years extended waranty can be provided, Nothing else?
3) I need help in selecting the dealer in Bangalore-- Any ideas here?

Thanks in advance
