Thank you.
I will get to know of any offers tomorrow . Since it is a new model, I am not very hopeful.

If I get a good price from Ford along with an exchange bonus, I may just exchange it. As of now it's up for sale .

Booked City for the engine and Baleno for convenience and Maruti backing. I currently have a Wagon R and have been badly* looking for an automatic to ease my knees. However, the City engine and interiors make me want it over the Baleno. Still on two minds. Cant see myself spending Rs 4 lakhs for the City CVT though.

Which car did you go for? If Baleno, whats the delivery date now?

Hi Yusha,
The Honda City was available first so I went ahead with that. A day after I took delivery of the Honda City, Nexa SA called to say I need to pay the remaining amount for the Baleno as the allotment has come. I told I already took delivery of HC and that he can cancel my booking and refund the amount. I followed up with Nexa even until the day I paid the full amount to Honda to check when the Baleno was coming and they had no visibility on availability. Anyways, no regrets. Actually, pretty happy it turned out that way.

I wanted to post this on the forum. According to my sales consultant, no VW showrooms in Bengaluru has a GT TDI test drive vehicle! He offered me Ameo TDI instead, claiming it'd give the same driving experience as GT TDI as the engine, cabin, and body to weight ratio of Ameo are same as that of GT's. I wasn't convinced but drove the Ameo nonetheless. It did not give me the joy I had while I drove a friend's GT TDI. So, I can say I have booked a GT TDI without a test drive lol:

But out of curiosity, has anyone else been in this situation? Why would they not have GT TDI test drive vehicle while they had a GT TSI?

No, Lakhimpur does not have a Toyota dealer. Even though Lakhimpur Kheri is the largest district in UP, it does not have a Toyota dealer:Frustrati

P.S. I have taken the delivery of my Innova. It was delivered on 22nd as my father was busy from 17 to 21. Here is a picture of me and my father taking the delivery.

Surprising, considering the demand of SUVs in the region. Toyota is probably losing out to competitors. The demand for SUVs is huge in the region. I doubt you will find more white Scorpios anywhere else than in UP. The same is true for Fortuner and to a lesser extent, the Innova.
