Waw, Black ford Figo nice choice dude.
Any idea approximately how many Figos have been booked at Metro Ford?

@Rishi,
you have got a nice garage !

Captain Slow · 17th March 2010, 11:27

^ thanks

The sales person with whom I interact tells me that about 100 petrol cars are booked and about 300 TDCI. I have no way of verifying this figure. But I do believe that the booking volumes are high. The same day I was making payment I saw at-least 6 other people making some kind of advance payment/booking.

I might upgrade to the Zxi which is about 21K more so then it would be 4,73 on road. Whichever comes in stock first hehe
