An unexpected visit to the Fiat showroom here is my tale.
Prologue
My aunt (beginner) required a used car (Budget: 1.5Lakh) for her daily use. The hunt began, lack of option prompted toward assessing for a new car.
Requirements: Petrol or Diesel, 5 Seated, Huge boot, Good driving position, fully loaded, Safety factor (Air bags, ABS)
Options: Ritz Vxi , I10, I20, WagonR and Santro.
Brand: MarutiShowroom: R.K Motors, Somajiguda
Experience:
A cold welcome at the entrance. The receptionist appointed a sales rep for guidance.
A good seating position is essential.
Checked out Ritz, A-Star, Wagon R, and Estillo to find the suitable car with best driving position out of the lot.
A-Star was first but rejected due to low seating.
A jump into the Ritz almost finalised the decision but was put off by the rear and waiting period.
Next was the Zen estillo which had a good driving position but was due for an upgraded.
This is when the Maruti started to get on my nerves. I asked them to show me a wagon r. First they took me to the storage where there was a WagonR but locked. So we had to go to the godown in the adjacent building basement. After a long walk we go to see it which was such a major disappointment with the features and styling.
On the way back to the showroom it was decide either WagonR or Ritz vxi .A quotation on my company name was requested. This is where they got on to my nerves by making me wait for 30minutes.I sent this time explaining advantages and disadvantages of all the above cars. As there was no response we decide to leave. Just when I reached the exit the sales person came running which I received silently. After exiting it was decided then we would not go for a maruti seeing the response.
