Team-BHP - The "I Booked my Car" Thread

Booked a Fiesta 1.6Zxi last month.

Model : Ford Fiesta
Variant : 1.6 Zxi
Fuel : Petrol
Color : Sea Grey
Booking Date : Mid-June
Expected Delivery : Was 3 weeks from booking, now given a date of 25-Jul
Dealer & City : Lathangi, Bangalore
OTR : 7.54L
Freebies : Basic Kit including Mats etc & 3M Film, other than this none promised none expected.

I'd like to thank many senior BHP'ians here for their detailed posts that helped me take an informed decision.

The other otions considered were ANHC (VFM missing, OTR in B'lore is almost 11L), Linea (Didn't like the ergonomics and performance), SX4 (liked the performance but not the looks), Verna (thumbs down to performance & suspension), Scorpio (this one made a late entry into the list & stayed long on my list. I let it go after a lot of thinking about priorities). :)

Hi Team,
I got in touch with Bimal auto branch on kanakpura road, very close to my house, for car purchase about 4 months back. Spoke with Mahesh and Daniel and ate their head 24x7 with my purchase queriesstupid:. I was in dilemma to got for new alto / swift D or get a used car from maruti / other manufacturers. Daniel assisted my in all queires irrespective of the car and helped me even to get the details of used cars. Now after much trouble to all, I finally gave in to swift-d today and booked it with them:Cheering:. No hassels. They promised me Lumar sunfilm on the car on delivery. I hope i do not change my mind till car delivery.

But I would recommend these guys for any help with maruti cars. You can PM me for their numbers.
