well a complete cleaning would consume about 100 litres of water if used judiciously

a Person was leaning next to my Chica and the strap of his cargoes managed to pull out the Indicator assembly. i noticed there was a crack on the mountings and decided to change the assembly. went to the TASS. guess the price of the Indicator Assembly ? 64/-

Dang, thats really cheeeap. The JV with TATA is really good, gotta love those prices.
Looks like Linea ownership is cheaper than even Maruti also!

I broke it on my maruti zen while reversing into my house recently. Let me see how much that one costs (just to compare)!

yes...looks like Fiat ownership is cheaper or on par with Maruti

infact the parts which would need replacement, accident prone parts etc are quite cheap. the front fog lamp garnish is Rs. 45/- the front windshield is 2850/-, the Mirror covers are 155/- or so!
