Congrats Sridhar!
I work in the same area. Puntos are hard to catch a sight of. May be I can wait for you in the ORR. What time do you pass by in the morning?

The Tata-Fiat showroom near Agara doesn't seem to have Punto at all for display! They could have used the traffic pileup in front of it for great effect!

Came back yesterday from a 2000 km trip to Kerala. This also includes a trip to Sabarimala. The car was absolute pleasure to ride in the ghat section. The main problem i was faced was the lack of visibility due to the thick A pillar. Overall i got 17.2 km/liter during my whole trip. Also happened to visit Courtallam (Kutralam), Achankovil, Aryankavu and Kulathoorpuzha during the trip to Sabarimala. So far i have covered 3400 kms. Need to take the car for the first service soon. Could not do it at 3000 km as i was Kerala. The major complaint that i have is my driver seat goes down automatically. Other than that things are fine and enjoying the drive. Month end i am planning to drive down to Mantralayam.

Thats cool Sridhar, Good that you enjoyed your trip, i think i have also seen others complain about the driver seat going down automatically, what could be the reason for it?
