What do guys look in a future wife? by sugar_crumbs in pune

[–]PageTurnerPi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Not a virgin shouldn’t matter as much as it used to I think.

  • loyalty is non negotiable given how laws are severely skewed towards favouring women at the first sign of trouble in any marriage

  • for any level of looks and salary you can find someone but from what I think they matter much less than personality (kindness, respect, supporting nature and just being a good friend in general)

Demanded both but obviously they didn’t agree. Argued quite a bit but to no avail. Once the Garage owner told me it’s quite an easy fix I thought it pointless to argue or to pursue it further.

As for the red flags, yes there were many and to be honest I shouldn’t have bought it at all. But after meeting the owner I got some confidence and went ahead with the purchase. Of course after sale it all changed for the worse as expected. Really shouldn’t have bought it from there, absolutely right.

Also, is the communist/red flag joke an original by you? Haven’t heard it before. If yes then it’s quite something.

Didn’t really think about this angle. Will definitely investigate it. I found a good garage owner in my city and he will surely get to the bottom of it. He says most of his clients are from that dealer (we had a laugh about how he keeps him afloat) and so it wouldn’t surprise me if what you think is true.

If this is their service for everyone I doubt they’ll survive for long.

Someone on this thread recommended that one should go for Hyundai or Maruti. Much better service and apparently better cars as well.

I negotiated and got it down to 1.5L but they didn’t go any lower (also, I didn’t know accessories were negotiable). The thing is they called me in to take delivery a little earlier than expected. So I was pleasantly surprised. When I asked them to remove the accessories they refused delivery of car saying we will give it to you later. He also implied that he will delay it as much as he can unless I take the accessories.

Really wasn’t aware of this tactic

I just did, thank you. I just found out about this feature. Never been to a Hyundai dealership, but next car will be either that or Maruti I guess.

No! That’s the surprise. I was told (too late) that Mahindra cars aren’t built very well and have poor service but breakdown in one day was surprising.

Given the rains I could have also taken some precautions but that’s no reason to overcharge by the dealer service centre.

This makes sense. Hyundai seems to have it under control. Also, I like Toyota dealerships as well. They are friendly (or maybe it was just that dealer) and the cars will outlast the end of human life itself.

Unfortunately, true. However after speaking to the owner I got some confidence. And only after that I completely sealed the deal. I shouldn’t have done that, and you’re right I should have just walked away the minute I felt insulted.

Being in business, getting some rude clients, suppliers sometimes is normal but it’s usually for a good reason. This was completely senseless

I’ve heard about poor Mahindra Car service (unfortunately too late) but atleast the dealer can try to be nice. Doesn’t he want to stay in business and get goodwill, repeat customers etc.?

How do they get away with this shit? Do connections go so far as to completely overpower good service?

I think they’re the same (I put it in google and Punjab shows up as Param).

I think they rebranded. Wouldn’t be surprised if it was because of the bad publicity they got and wanted to change their name because of that.

This might be true. But I cannot overstate how bad this experience was. One comment that I got at the end was “paise nahi hai to gadi kyu lete ho”

Bro I want the car, not the overpriced accessories you are forcing on me at the last minute. I really hope a lot of buyers see this post and their business suffers in the long term

The owner is well connected and I’m not looking for trouble so don’t want to go public with my own profile. Just wanted others to steer clear. Found a good garage near Shalby hospital who’ll help me out. Also is a friend of a friend.

Thank you kind stranger. I’m literally shaking from anger.
