No offence intended to people who like or have bought the Figo - I'm sure you saw things the the car that perhaps I missed. If you're happy with your car, that's all that matters.  | |

Most of the time, the TD vehicles are top end models so you can expect to have airbags in them. For repair, these are usually insured by the dealers so I doubt the customer was asked to pay anything. Looks like a major accident - cannot fault the TD guy who managed to check the safety features  | |

A tachometer with this is just great. I didn't want the Zxi thanks to the Vibrant Coral IP which I personally didn't like|

 I think the salesman would now force the Test Drivers to buy one Figo, if those guys are not already impressed. But, it does look like serious accident, I think the passengers walked out without injury (cabin is intact). | |

| BHPian | What I feel - FORD wanted to keep the length within 3.8 meters. ( may be the small car norm in some other countries, which I am not sure). And the distance is not 8cm at the bottom side. It is much less than that. Sure - We are not buying to bang on somewhere. But it can happen during use. 1or 2 times I was banged from behind, and my Palio's bumper took the impact well without any damage to the car. I cant imagine what will happen in the case of Figo, where there is no bumper present at the back. If I hit a stone at the front, the condenser/ radiator may get damaged for sure. BTW I have book a Colorado Red TDCi Titanum from Kairali Trivandrum and waiting delivery next week. Quote:

I cannot comment on car deliveries as those are specific to showrooms Quote:
Really sad this, but obviously all of you can see that there has not been any structural damge to the car & yes everyone would have been able to walk out of that car without a scratch. The damage seems to be more superficial here. Also Vid, in such an accident, had it just been a plastic beam then you would have probably seen the engine on the driver , & almost everyone dead. So this is not the case vid, hence it proves that there is a metal impact beam enclosed by that plastic. Quote:
Actually i measured it using my desk ruler  . ALso congrats on your choice & color. I love that color.PS- The same color used to come on a ford mustang. Sweet! Last edited by Mustang.101 : 18th March 2010 at 12:09. | |||
