that's nice, Sridhar...my experience at the other concorde on mysore road has been pretty good enough..need to see if he sticks to his promise and delivers my white beauty on july 10ish..

My experience with the Fiat people has been nothing short of terrible !!

My experience with the dealership in Pune (B U Bhandari) has been nothing short of outstanding !!

BTW : I went to the dealers service centre today (where the new cars are stocked) and had a look at my baby. The speedometer was displaying total running of 43 kms.

Slight change in plans on my side. Got an update just minutes ago. The Electric blue car had a few problems and would have taken ages to get to the showroom so wev now opted for the RED 1.4 Emotion pack instead. Will be getting the car either on saturday or sunday. ITS FIXED ! :P
