Though I am quoting swiftdiesel here,this question is more or less directed to every body for their valuable inputs.Is there a delay now in petrol Maruti all of a sudden,or is it because of the fiasco in Manesar plant ? One of my colleagues had booked a petrol Swift Dzire about 2 months back here in Kolkata , but the dealer is yet to hand over his car, saying there would be another months waiting atleast !!
I have booked my Ertiga ZDi in June 2012, when I was given in writing that there is a 9 months waiting period. Till today I have been called three times by my dealer. First time the color did not match,although it was a ZDi. Then next time they offered me a VDi, which I declined. Third time, they offered me a ZDi without alloys. Again I said no. Quote:

Even if MSIL says stuff about VFM, vis-a-vis Ertiga ZDi, do you personally believe it. Although I have booked it, I feel its a tad overpriced, considering the equipments levels. Even lesser priced cars offer blutooth connectivity and ACC nowadays. If we compare a 10 lakh Hyundai sedan with the top end diesel Ertiga, equipment levels in the Maruti would be far less. People who are prepared to pay around 10 lakhs OTR price for a car, won't be really looking for something VFM. If somebody was looking for sunroof or 10 speakers or 8 airbags, then it would have been understood. A simple blutooth connectivity or ACC would have increased the cost by how much ?? Quote:
