I got the call last week. Still waiting. ...

On the Oil front..TASS gets better realisation from CF grade oil which is still being used for the Indicas (which far outnumber the Safari / Sumo-Grande. )
Thus if any body wants to change oil (from TASS) with CH grade, it is better to check up in advance whether the TASS has the oil.

BTW nice photos..Where did you shoot them ?

kkdelhi · 14th April 2008, 22:12

Avinash, nice pictures. In the 5th picture from the top, the color looks more like Steel Blue. Any pics of the interiors?

HappyWheels · 14th April 2008, 22:24

Great photos, Avinash.

Nice lonely roads, aren't they! :-)

Is it because of the photos or what, but it seems that the vehicle is a bit low on height compared to the other 2.2 pictures. It looks more like how a Tavare might look - big vehicle with scooter wheels (!). (Check out the 4th picture)

Do you guys think so or is it just me?

dadu · 15th April 2008, 09:25

Seems like it but probably due to the unpainted side claddings.

congrats buddy on reclaiming your life.

I saw the video. the noise is it the engines or something else?

m3_07 · 16th April 2008, 14:06

Congrats dude & welcome to the club!!

Happy to know that I am able to find people with cycus grey around. I felt, i was the isolated one with that choice.

Go for alloys & it will change the way the vehicle looks overall. DO NOT GO FOR AURA ALLOYS, not a decent design I would say.

zenopio · 16th April 2008, 18:12

congrates buddy......why not get the claddings coloured in to body colour.

i recently saw a Cycus Grey with a SM alloy(10-12 spokes) and big fat tyres and o boy it looked killer and total head turner.

avanishphatak · 16th April 2008, 22:02

the noise is infact from the engine but its not as loud as it is in the video.. the camera tends to pick up certain frequencies of sound more.

i m planning for the paint on the claddings but i dont know where i can get it done for lesser price it was around 17 k ,in Mysore and the dealer told me that the finishing wont be like EX/VX models. Im still planning for the alloys ,bull-bar and music system

hey m3_07 i have seen lots of cycus grey safari's its one of the hot selling colors .

So, you tried a bit of off-roading, eh? Was that on purpose, or was the bridge really not functional?

dadu · 17th April 2008, 09:21

Try any Dupont trained bodyshops, wont be a problem with the finish.

Prerna is a Dupont trained Bodyshop, infact the Dupont training center is located inside their premises.
