Hello everybody - Me, My Swift and Skoda L&K

lijodavis · 24th June 2005, 19:00

Hello everyone,
I am Lijo Davis , 27 years , guy from trichur,kerala.Recently i visited team-bhp.com on may while checking on maruti swift.
i am not an auto expert and from your reviews i have booked Swift on may end itself and i got it delivered on the first day itself ie june 6th from sitaram motors trichur.
Its a Zxi,silky silver now it was around 700kms. When i got the car there was some problems like more pressure in tyres steering tend to go to left side more(may be alignmet problem) and some small noise from back side etc. later i have corrected it all.
Now everything was going fine and smooth. i am getting a milege around 14.5 in the city.I tried to post details in "Maruti Suzuki SWIFT Owners: Ur new car report here pls" but i couldn't since i am a new member

. i have done some extras like a pioneer mp3, mats etc.
I also own a Skoda L&K black. now its around 13000 kms and almost one year.

I do have lots of questions, shall post them to the appropriate forum.

Looking forward to having a good time.

Regards
Lijo Davis.

welcome to team bhp dude.... myself another dude from kerala (trissur, in fact)....

by the way, lucky that you got your swift on the first day itself- there are many bhpians like me who booked the car, and still haven't got delivery yet.... i booked the car in the first week of may, before it's launch (even the booking) and i still haven't got my zxi yet....

oh, and yes...enjoy your stay here... and congrats on your rides- both are awesome....and it seems rtech, you and me share the same taste in wheels.....

happy shiftin'....

Lijo,

Congrats for the new car and a review with loads of pics please. Swift review is urgently needed with so much of hype, both within and outside TBHP, a good review (first one on Swift) is needed.
