You can also try Amit Taneja ( 09991532445 ) from Landmark Jeep in Gurugram. I had a good experience with him when I visited Jeep few weeks back.
He was informative and cleared most queries well. He also didn't push me to buy Jeep and allowed me take my own time.
Although, he did kept trying to sell the "premium" part of Jeep. Repeated many times that people who are looking for Jeep are looking for the Premium and Luxury vehicle segment.

The car felt so much better. It was so much more responsive.

Back to square one. The SA was in no hurry to take my booking. He said, “Sir, please take your time to decide.” I was literally shocked. So ended up not booking.

By the way, no offers at all. Like it’s an absolute no no. Nothing nada. Only insurance discount which is not a real discount anyway.

Tough one to cough out 30 big ones but I think it will be money well spent.
I was in the same situation for almost a year...but have finally booked the Diesel AT Limited. I have a dodgy left knee, so AT is a must for me.

30L is a lot, but this will probably be the last car I'll drive myself, so why not - heart over head

As you mentioned, the only 'discount' is the insurance, which I said I'll buy from outside and so the dealer matched the quote. I also bargained on the handling charges which they reduced from 20k to 10k.

Taking the delivery on 7th Oct!!

After driving the Jeep Compass Petrol AT since Aug2020, the FE is not as scary as I had thought it would be. i'm getting FE as below :

Mumbai City Driving : 8-10 kmpl
Outstation Trips: 12-14 kmpl
Mum-Pune Expressway Drives: 15-17 kmpl.

I'm quite satisfied with these numbers considering the weight of the car. And the planted feel on the highways is great.

Cheers
Amkam.

Re: Jeep Compass : Official Review

Hello folks,

Thanks to this forum and the many lovely ownership experiences shared, I took the plunge on the Jeep Compass. Took delivery of the Compass 2.0 Diesel MT Longitude (O) variant in Galaxy Blue color last weekend. I am upgrading from a 2014 Hyundai Verna 1.6 VTVT Petrol and the Jeep really does make me feel like I am driving a luxury car.

I have only driven 110-120 kms in this beast thus far (all city) and I am hoping to take it for a highway spin soon. Sharing a couple of photos, will share more about the process and detailed experience in the coming days.

At the showroom

The numbers are satisfactory however, how did you check them? By full tank method or from MID?

I am following Team-BHP from quite a long time and read all reviews, updates on this forum.
Lucky that you are doing PDI, my dealer initially tried denying it and was very nervous when I told him that I would be doing a PDI.

Under the sunlight, check if there are any dents or repaint or bodywork done on the car. Check for panel gaps, do oil check and battery inspection.

There is a ‘PDI’ checklist pdf somewhere on the forum. Pre Registration Checklist [v2.3]. Please have a look.

I am not sure if v2.3 is the latest updated version or not.

Wow, congratulations. I booked just now at the Kolkata dealership. Diesel AT 4x4. Few questions:

1. How much are you paying for the insurance?

2. What colour did you book?

3. Which manufacturing month did you get ?

Thanks & Congratulations!!

When are you getting yours? Have they increased the price from 1st Oct?

1. Around 74k with all the add-ons except return to invoice. The dealership is doing it from Tata AIG.
2. Red and Black.
3. June 2021...I needed the delivery quickly, so was fine with the ready stock.

Planning for a long trip starting this Saturday; hopefully will be an enjoyable one.

Thanks for the advice. Will do thorough PDI prior to paying the full amount.

I did download long back one checklist. However, let me check it again which version it is.

Re: Jeep Compass : Official Review

Recent Compass buyers - how much did you guys pay for the OEM mats (floor and boot) and mud flaps? The dealership is quoting around INR 13K for the same.

That sounds to be on the higher side. I was quoted 7900 for the mats and 2800 for the mudflaps when I got my model S 3 weeks back.

Any other suggestion, advise, updates which helps me every steps, till I get delivery.
I've been searching for the PDI checklist in this thread. But couldn't find it.
Finally found the PDI checklist in a different thread. You can download from the below post.

You've to ask the SA for a PDI at the stockyard. If they resist, please tell them that you will not take delivery until PDI is done.

Attached is the PDI checklist and your car's buildsheet.

I paid ₹ 7,763 for the Floor mats Slush and ₹ 2,800 for the mud flaps. I didn't get the boot mat, which was an additional ₹ 5,300. If all these three are included in the ₹ 13k, then think the dealer is already offering you a discount.
