vasu · 20th June 2009, 14:27

First of all sorry for late submission of my thread i took delivery on 6th may i was busy shifting my house.So
Delivery-On 6 may i was ready to take delivery of my Linea Mjd Emotion Pack delivery process was not smooth i took print out of team bhp PDI checklist then i checked everything was ok but then i started checking exterior of the car after checking many times Thanks to team bhp for this suggestion to check the car in broad daylight i did found a scratch on driver side door i am also attaching pic of scratch after a long negotiation i managed to get a 5k discount on the car in behalf of scratch and promise to repare that scratch on first service.
Drive-I just loved the ride.Its a pleasure to drive the car the car feels underpowered below 1800 rmp but once you cross that the car takes off.My car done only 550 km in a month because i was bust shifting my house.one long trip from Bhopal to Indore.my car trip computer indicating mileage 16.8 kmpl.

Looks like there's a Linea bought every week on TBHP.
Why are sales of Linea still only around 1000

BHPians, need your help. I am on the verge of buying a new car, but am stuck between the Linea MJD and ANHC. My heart says FIAT LINEA MJD EMOTION PACK FLAMENCO RED, but my mind and my Wife calls for practical thinking, brand value, A.S.S. and hence ANHC. Did a Test Drive of MJD yesterday and found all issues listed in blogs earlier as True (Turbo lag below 2000 RPM, noisy cabin on high rev, un-supportive driver seat, etc). I have driven the ANHC in Delhi city traffic and found I had to upshift regularly, so never felt the 118 bhp in City conditions.
Currently I drive a 2004 Tata Indica, done approx 1.35 Lakh Kms, but even with AC on and in Delhi city conditions I dont have to upshift frequently thanks to the Torque.
The Linea MJD Emotion Pk is costing 9.11 L ex-Noida, while ANHC SMT is at 8.80 L.
My daily commute earlier was approx 80Km (hence the diesel Indica), but now down to approx. 50Km. One last word. Its difficult for most people to catch my Indica as I drive quite fast. Please suggest..!! (I know there have been lots of threads on this previously but I am still stuck between Heart & Mind)
