They have a cancellation charge of Rs 1000/- it seems. I thought that was on the higher side. Told them to give it in writing. So the SA guess n produces a "terms & conditions" paper - with no details of the dealer on it!! Insisted on the dealership stamp n the SA signature on the "terms & conditions", n got it done.

What do fellow BHPians think? If I have to cancel my booking, will I lose my 1000 ??

Not yet, I am not using the car much, so thought that will keep the stock wheels till the end of November and then make the switch. Hope this helps.

re: The "I Booked my Car" Thread

Folks! With a very heavy heart I would like to inform that due to an unsuccessful attempt of saving the life of a loved one in my family I had to delay the purchase of my Ertiga Zxi till Holi next year. I lost my Bua's husband today afternoon even after making all the best efforts and financial support.

As to prove my honesty which I definitely owe as a Bhpian to all of you, here is the snap of the booking receipt of my car. I am informing this since I don't want my booking/ experience to be seen or considered as a hoax.

I had to sacrifice my dreams and aspirations for saving a household and to save the life of a dear person which I eventually could not. I have not asked for the booking amount to be refunded as at the moment my priorities are really really different.

The pic of the original booking receipt:

Thanks.

re: The "I Booked my Car" Thread

I happened to do the booking of my first car!

Make : Maruti Suzuki
Model : New Swift Dzire
Variant : VDi
Fuel : Diesel
Booking Date : 18th Aug, 2014
Color : White
Expected Delivery Date : 20-25 days (second week of Sep)
Dealer & City : RKS Motors, Malakpet, Hyderabad
Freebies : Nothing much (they're giving just 3K cash or accessories)
Others : Turns out MSIL is not giving any discounts now on diesel DZire, and if it does before my delivery time, I can avail them.
On-road price: 7.77 lakh including zero-depreciation and 4yr warranty

Accessories planned:
  • side and bumper moulding (a white DZire looks smart with them)
  • parking sensors
  • artificial leather seat covers (the ones with fabric padding at the back to absorb sweat)
  • car cover, mud flaps and mats

Cost: 30000 Euros

It is a hot-hatch and real fun to drive car. I have not pushed the car yet, clocked 750kms in the last four days (including today) - still under the running in period, so keeping the RPMs below 2500 and max speed below 130 Kmph. Turns up an average 5 L/100km (~20 Km/L) (90% Autobahn driving so far). It has the start-stop system (VW terms - Bluemotion) and pushes only 100 g of CO2. It satisfies the Euro 5 norms.

Its basically a VW Golf/Audi A3 - based on the same MQB plaftform from VW upon which the Golf 7 and the new A3 is being built.
