Re: The "I Booked my Car" Thread

Finally took the plunge to book Alcazar 1.5 Turbo DCT.

Make: Hyundai
Model: Alcazar
Variant: Signature (O) Turbo DCT, 7 Seater
Booking date: 10.05.2023
Color: Starry Night
Expected Delivery Date: 10th July
Dealer: Trident Hyundai, Bengaluru
OTR: 24.56L
Mode: Company Lease
Discounts: None
Accessories: Planning for basic mudflap / mat / boot mat / Car Cover.

Evaluated Jeep Compass, Hyundai Creta and Tucson. In fact I went ahead and booked Tucson last year, but then changed it to Alcazar recently, 2 main reasons being the cost, ease of driving it in the city and the features you get for the price you pay, which is real value for money. Of course Tucson is a different segment with more powerful diesel engine and luxurious interiors, but Alcazar isnt far behind. I wasnt sure about Tucson ADAS features compatible in Indian road conditions, which finally tilted it towards Alcazar.

I had updated in one of my ownership threads I guess.

Maruti Truevalue did a major mess up with buying back my celerio. I had to cancel the transaction. Hence the purchase plan was put on hold as I still have the celerio with me. I don't think I will go ahead with punch anytime this year.

With the Seltos Facelift around the corner, this feels like a definite steal!
Did you get the BS6 Phase 1 Or RDE update? Here in Noida, I enquired, most dealers are offering only upto 1- 1.25 lakh discount on diesel RDE variants.

It's the RDE variant, I know the dealership and the owners personally, our family and friends have purchased over a dozen cars from them already since 2019. We also got similar discounts as @yedukrishnan199 got. Considering most dealerships were in a rush to clear out their inventory, he must have got it at this price after some good bargaining. We, however, didn't even have to ask.

It's the RDE variant, they were trying hard to sell the X-Line because it hardly had any takers, I was at the right place at the right time to swoop in on a great deal, call me opportunistic!

Re: The "I Booked my Car" Thread

Make: Tata Motors
Model: Punch
Variant: Creative
Fuel: Petrol
Booking Date: 16 July 2023
Colour: White (Dual Tone)
Expected Delivery Date: by July end
Dealer & City: Cauvery Tata, Karkala branch.
Freebies: None. I have requested discounts on accessories but have had no commitment from them yet - just assurances. Being a branch showroom, they make me think that everything has to be approved by their main office in Mangaluru.

Others:
  • Would be buying insurance outside as they said matching the online quote (ICICI Lombard) I shared would be difficult.
  • I sold my Alto 800 to them for 2.3L. Amount to be adjusted during final payment.
  • Only the booking amount has been paid so far. Said rest after PDI.
  • On 20 July, I was told that a vehicle has been billed to me but is yet to be dispatched from Tata's Pune plant. Apparently, it is waiting for a truck allotment. I have been hearing this every day now
