@ Deepug - Thanks for the heads up. Will take this issue up with the service point.

@ Tanmay_ambre - The build quality is NOT comparable to the Octavias. Period. That said, its on par if not better than many cars at this price point.
As for your queries, here are the answers.
1) Doors don't shut with a European "thunk". But zero rattles.
2) Like all common rail engines, cold start will wake up your neighbors. But things quieten down as the engine warms up. If the windows are wound up, its no issues.
3) None so far.
4) Paint and finish is pretty good. Though my car has collected a lot of dents.
5) AC is very effective. Chills the interiors fast.

Hope this helps.

thanks man it really is cool and posh-powerful ac and nice big leather seats only grouse is it does not have rear ac vents which is really uncomfortable for passengers in the back seat

@dockap

What have you put on the rear view mirror? Reverse Parking Camera?

[dockap]

lcd display inbuilt in the rvm connected to reverse camera it also has option to connect it to dvd player and watch movies but the stock alpine player only supports data dvd for mp3 i think

[beanstalk_230]

how much did it cost you - the LCD as well as the camera

@ Beanstalk_230 - How is your car doing? There hasn't been any updates from you in quite a while.

Hey guys, How much will this kit cost me? going in for a Magnum LT soon.

1. 16" Rims with 205 tyres
2. Xenons for the Headlignt and foglamps.
Thanks guys.
Cheers

@ Sudarshansarma - HIDs start from around Rs. 6000. But, without projectors I don't think the HIDs will be too effective.

[beanstalk_230]

hey guys .. had been busy for quite a while now

nothing much from my side as of now, just that my car has finally and at last completed 3K cheers: and its running fine. just hoping that it completes 4K before going for its 2nd service which will be coming up soon in march.

As about the diesel i have switched to IOC normal coz all the 3 reliance are a bit in the outskirts of the city or rather are off my route. Is IOC normal diesel fine for the car OR should i use Xtramile instead?

Haven't been able to go for ICE hunt even and even that has been postponed for quite a while.

signing off for now
cheers
