But, Finally he came up with some lame excuses and I decided to cancel the booking. You cannot do any business with such a person who keep changing his own words.
Currently, not deciding on anything. just want to let my mind relax since I am not in a good mood. So, any decision taken would only lead to more disaster.
Dropped a complaint mail to GM about this "behavior" of Sundaram motors. Whether its gonna help or not, I did my part. Thats it.

Anyway, I have also decided to update this post ONLY when i get the Key for my car and its delivered to me
Very unfortunate !!

Wake-up GM.

Mjothi,
Sad to know abou the dealers behaviur with you. Just wait for a while and have a fresh look at the options available. Just make sure you do not delay youre decison too far as the manufacturers are likely to revise their prices very soon on account of higher input costs.

I have been using an SX4 ZXi and amy very satisfied with the car and the dealer.

Cheers

Even Maruti dealers are not an exception in playing tricks with potential customers ! After reading through the whole thread, I connected some good-cop bad-cop game which I boldly refused while I made my booking for WagonR 1 year back. Most of these sales guys try to play some game or another in the name of negotiating the final price, totaly mixed and confused with freebies, insurance etc. If we dont do the math well coupled with comparisons from other dealers, we will defenitely end up on the losing side. Buddy, wish the confusions end faster and we see you get through a happy deal soon !

This could be a demo vehicle. Check for the same. Some accessories once fitted cannot be removed so they might be refusing it. See if they are useful to you and go ahead after verifying that car is new one. I doubt someone will cancel dezire that too diesel.

Aveo is a nice vehicle. I test drive it and it was good but i went for SX4 as my better half liked SX4. Check for FE, Service senter,Service parameters etc. I guess people have talked about Aveo in this forum. Search for it

I had so much confusion and finally decided for a Aveo
http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/test-d...d-edition.html

Believe me, its really a good vehicle for that price. The main thing made to think on Aveo is the interiors and quality. I owned a Maruti Zen for 3 years. I don't say its bad but this is of different experience.

My take would be to go for it.
