My new Hyundai i20 Magna 1.4 crdi !!

Hi to all !!

16th july 2011-

I got my i20 magna 1.4 crdi today !!
Bought it from HARSH HYUNDAI REWARI !!

It was an exciting day for me !! I Woke up around 10:30am and called up the dealer for inquiring about my car (if it was ready or not), He told me to take the delivery around 8pm from his place.Since I live in New delhi and rewari is too far from my place, my father decided to take the car's delivery from gurgaon from the dealer's home itself (the dealer is my uncle's childhood friend so dad decided to take the car from his house instead of traveling soo far). I was totally against my dad for not going to the showroom and getting the car but could't go against his wish.

I had nothing to do the whole day so i kept watching movies and tried to sleep so that the time could pass faster.

Around 6:30pm my dad came back home from his office and me, my mom and dad were all set to get our new ride by 7:00pm. we left home in my dad's official skoda octavia and reached my cousin's home in gurgaon by 7:45pm as we dint know the way to that dealer's home and my cousin knew it.So from there we sent the official car back and in my cousin's car went to the dealer's home to get the ride.Saw my white i20 outside his house waiting for me to ride it !! . we took the keys from the dealer went to a temple did the pooja and were back on road to our home.

ABOUT THE CAR-
I have bought white i20 magna 1.4 CRDI
I got free accessories like seat covers, mud flaps, mats, and 1 radha krishan ji picture.
The car doesn't has alloys , ABS , airbags , steering mounted controls
It has automatic climate control, front chrome grill, chrome handles inside, chrome finishing on the dashboard,

The car has a 6 gear MT.
Getting reverse sensors and door visors from the dealer within a week as he dint have them at the moment.

Sorry dint click any pic today !! while post them by tomorrow !!

Post a brief driving experience too, awaiting pics of the car!

And about not taking delivery from the showroom, c'mon.. you could have convinced your dad. Afterall, you don't buy a car everyday!

Re: My new i20 magna 1.4 crdi !!

Doesn't the i20 come with indicators on the ORVMs? I don't see any on yours, did Hyundai discontinue it?

And please do share the driving experience too.

Re: My new i20 magna 1.4 crdi !!

Congrats on the CRDI i20. Nice interiors. The blue back light looks uber-cool.

What's interesting is that Hyundai chose to skip ABS, airbags and fog lamps on the Magna but provided climate control. Would have been nice if atleast ABS was standard. We are talking about a high torque diesel car here.

Re: My new i20 magna 1.4 crdi !!

Congrats on your new i20, it looks fabulous in this white shade. Am contemplating buying a new hatch for myself and deciding between the Figo and i20, am sold on the i20 but budget is stretching a lot.

I absolutely need ABS and wonder why Hyundai did such a stupid thing, they added Automatic climate control, put in a 6th gear but removed ABS from Magna, atleast ABS should have been given for i20 as it has ample of power.

Now Asta is the only option for me and the price there is steep - lets see, enjoy your i20.

MAGNA has another version which has ABS in it !! MAGNA ABS, but that din't strike me while buying the car ,MAGNA ABS is around 15-20k more than MAGNA, But I am happy with the breaks of this car !!

Is it? I am in US right now and would be coming in Aug so need a car for myself, can you please confirm with your dealer whenever you have time?

As per i know only earlier i20 BS3 used to come with the ABS with Magna option, if it happens even now, my problem is solved , the ideal variant for me would be Sports (without alloys) + Abs - thats it. I can stretch my budget till then.

How is the Automatic climate control performing? Keep us updated with the FE figures and enjoy the 1.4 power.

i will let you know !!
and sports version comes with alloys only (i guess) and ABS is there.

climate control is good. Its raining these days so it obviously works better but today i tried it during afternoon when it was tooo hot and the results were good. I read some thread on team-bhp some one had stated that the AC is not that good compared to other hatchbacks but i personally don't think so, its working perfectly, chills the cabin quite fast even during hot afternoon. It has 8 speed blower so it feels like sitting in front of a desert cooler :lol :P
