@ankur,i understand your feeling ankur,i was promised delivery in 2 weeks but i received my car only after 6 weeks,in case of my earlier swift,it was 3 months as against the promised one month,so irrespective of the manufacturer,its the same story every where,they promise delivery at short duration to prevent from booking the car with another dealer,besides i also read that presently there is some production constraints with linea as bravo production has also started(initially it planned to be imported as CBU),any how you should get the car with in four weeks of booking

even i had lost patientce and days wouldnt move at allFoot in mouth,but what to do? 

Bala should I escalate this to Tata/Fiat ?

no ankur,i do understand you,even i lost patience and wrote a lengthy letter to fiat,enclosing the xerox copies of the booking papers,the next day i recieved a message in my mobile,congratulating me on my purchase,wellcoming me and sort of a friendly message,the deliver though followed only as it was possible,one and a half month after booking(that was the delivery period another dealer told me and it was genuine),so ankur,even now the waiting period for linea emotion variants is more than a month(other variants are available in 2 weeks),so you will get your car after a month of booking,the wait is definitely worth it,beleive me

The wait continues......the dealer tells me that my car is not on the latest batch dispatched from Pune. So have to wait for more time !!  In the meanwhile,  I have to contain myself by doing Linea spotting on the way to office every morning.  I just wish there were more Lineas on the road !!

hi ankur,yeah,i understand the anxiety and eagerness to have our hands on our linea,but the waiting period is more than a month and one has to wait,during the waiting period all i would do was to look at linea website! and linea brochuresFrown,yeah,i too wish there were more lineas on road,there will be, once linea is launched with other engines in january,potential customers are waiting for the launch

the wait is certainly frustrating after the booking

Hi,

I've been waiting for the delivery of my linea since quite some time. I have decided to wait for a week more and then escalate. The dealer is not so responsive.  Can anybody tell me who I should contact in Fiat/ Tata motors ? Some contact info will be really helpful.

hi ankur,

  yes,i can feel your distress due to the wait,that's only because of the agents' false promise of a short delivery period much against the reality,the waiting period is definitely atleast 4 weeks,after which you can write to the address given in the fiat-india website,just as i did,but the car will be delivered only as scheduled,but its worth the wait,as you had booked it around 20th oct,you should be getting your car in the 3rd week of november
