Congrats on the lovely Cruze!! Please do a thorough inspection once again when you bring her home.

PS: Could you please also touch upon the selling process of your Viva?

I love this angle a lot. Thought of introducing it with as you rightly said with an in your face picture.

Will certainly cover my selling process of Viva, do keep tuned.

Coming to think of it , a trip to the Hyd airport would be apt for this low flying monster photoblog.

Thanks Arun. Hoping now someone takes the initiative and calls for a drive meet

My heart said the same thing. And, one of the reason being what you outlined.

Brathashree, one of the important aspect considered before buying the base version was that TOP END and BASE VERSION have identifical safety features including 2 airbags, ABS etc.

Do write in detail about the buying process and the freebies you managed to squeeze out of the dealer!

The weather is just perfect for a photo shoot.

All in good time my little friend. I am going to request your services for the photoshoot as you excel in that department.

Well, if you'd like to compare the Hyderabad Food Thread with this one. Then please do not. Food thread wins hands down !

Thanks Macha. I reckon you and ravvs are disappointed that i didnt buy the BMW 320D, if i had listened to your advice then i would have had to move lock, stock and barrel to your home...LOL

Jokes apart, technical conversations with you guys is always enlightening.

That was a bit too short description of the ownership than usual.. I remember you referring your experiences with dealers and the negotiations that were done for your Accent.

Will await the detailed posts.

I didnt describe anything. Just posted that i am buying this car. Hopefully should elaborate a bit along with pictures in days to come.

Cheers !

karanraheja · 27th July 2010, 15:38

Awesome !! Congrats Avi!! You do owe us a more detailed report , right now you are spared till you get the delivery of the car. Drive safe

anilkalvani · 27th July 2010, 15:43

Congrats Avinash. I am going to be in the market for a new car in the next 2-3 months & the Cruze is seriously in my radar alongwith the Vento & the Corolla D-4D. Yes, the choice of cars is across the range & so vast & i am so so confused. Hope to hear about your experience in the days to come. Try to tame your monster

& drive safe buddy!

traveloholic · 27th July 2010, 15:49

Congrats Avi. Eagerly awaiting to see your beast.

tanwaramit · 27th July 2010, 16:01

congrats on the car. Look forward to the ownership report. The base version is quite self sufficient for a person who can add accessories on your own.
