. And deservedly so! Congrats to all, look forward to detailed ownership reports that will help many others.

+1 . Looks like TBHP is bringing out the enthusiast in most of us.

Congrats Ashvtosh.

Wishing you happy milecrunching with your Cruze. What was the OTR price? Any freebies?

jkdas · 1st December 2010, 13:53

My boss booked a Fiat Punto 90BHP, Tuscan Wine color;
OTR will be 7.29lac at Trivandrum.

We were quoted 6.93 OTR for 75BHP. We also will get telfon (yahyah), underbody and seat cover.

Booked from Mohandas Motors.

We also check the Fabia but Elegance would cost 7.27 OTR , wasnt worth the package.
