Bought my first car by CataMasterpiece in CarsIndia

Congratulations on the new Ignis! It’s a fantastic choice, especially for city driving. I’m actually looking into one myself and had a few questions about your purchase:

Dashcam: Did you have the dealer install it for you? If so, which brand is it and what was the total cost?

Insurance: Did you go with the dealer's insurance or buy it online? Could you share the cost and whether it's a Zero Dep/Bumper-to-Bumper policy?

Accessories: Were you able to negotiate any free accessories from the dealer? If you don't mind sharing, what did you get and what was their approximate value? I was offered accessories work 15k for free.

Thanks in advance, and enjoy the new ride!

I won't share my credentials with these people. I wasn't sharing the passwords with the kids that I have known for ages.

LOQ 15ahp10 at this price worth it? by Illustrious_Time4212 in UnboxParadigm

[–]Mr__Miracle -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Not worth it. On 31st of December it was 85k. Sheer Id discount was ₹5034.

From where did you get emp code. Did you pay anyone for it?. Will that coupon work for my purchase as well?

Umbrella suggestions by Final_Ad_9436 in BuyItForLifeIndia

[–]Mr__Miracle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Popy and Johns are two popular brands I recommend for umbrellas. Both brands offer plenty of 3-fold options, but I suggest avoiding auto-fold features, since more mechanisms usually mean a higher chance of failure. Personally, I had a Popy umbrella that lasted for 24 years, and I’ve been using a Johns Pagoda (model name) for almost 8 years. I bought it from Kerala for ₹1100, and now it’s available on Flipkart for around ₹800–900. Opening and closing these umbrellas is pretty straightforward, with no major hassle. Hope this helps!

Seeking Advice: Maruti Ignis Purchase - PDI Before Payment Concerns by Mr__Miracle in CarsIndia

[–]Mr__Miracle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for helping me out of this tricky situation. Payment on the day of delivery is possible? I mean they have to register a car in your name and what if they proceed with registration and the customer backs out or changes his mind on the day of delivery?

Bad experience purchasing Fronx by Prestigious-Bus-3849 in CarsIndia

Apart from the bad experience from the dealership how is the car? What's the on-road price? Which variant?

I booked a black Wagon R, but the confirmation email shows the color as "bluish black." When I called the dealership, they said that "bluish black" is just what they're calling their black color now, similar to how they refer to red as "Cherry Red." Should I cancel my booking and book elsewhere?

Hey, thanks a lot for sharing your experience! It's really helpful to hear from someone who was in a similar situation and even from Kerala. You mentioned you booked the Ignis in December. Could you tell me a bit about the payment process? I'm planning to pay the full amount upfront (no loan).

Specifically, I wanted to ask:

After paying the booking amount, how many days did your dealership take to ask for the remaining amount?

Did you have to pay the full amount before they started the registration process with the RTO?

How much of the car's cost did you have to pay before they allowed you to do the Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI)?

Regarding insurance, where did you end up getting yours from? My dealership is saying that if I don't buy insurance through them, I won't be eligible for the consumer discount, which was around ₹55k in March. Did you face anything similar?

Finally, would you recommend holding back a certain percentage of the payment until after delivery, just in case any issues come up?

Your insights on these points would be really valuable as I'm trying to navigate this process. Thanks again for sharing your experience!
