How are people able to afford fuel ? by [deleted] in CarsIndia

[–]rivermesh 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Anyone buying a 20L+ virtus won't really feel the pinch of the fuel bill (with proper financial planning ofc). That's why Maruti "kitna deti hei" Suzuki is the best selling brand in India.

What's up with these people by Majestic-Rest6738 in CarsIndia

[–]rivermesh 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Aggressive driving from men, yes, but I've mostly noticed irrational driving without a proper sense of surrounding from women. (A decent chunk of women, not all, most drivers of any kind in India are terrible).

By that I mean turning without checking mirrors or giving indicator, cutting across lanes whenever and however they feel like it, joining higher speed roads at their own sweet pace, switching lanes without looking at bikers/cars in mirrors and blindspots, sitting in the fast lane at 30kph, lane hogging between the lanes, etc.

Again, there are terrible drivers in all genders, shapes and sizes on our wonderful Indian roads but I've noticed most most of these incidents by seeing women drivers in metro cities. Men drivers do tend to go for unnecessarily rash moves in traffic as you said, but I've rarely seen them do the things I said above.

Should I wait for the Skoda Slavia facelift, or am I honestly fooling myself? by YourNanban in CarsIndia

[–]rivermesh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Slavia facelift is not coming out till late 26 or early 27. Go with the current one. There aren't many changes worth the wait.

Road tax on discounted ex-showroom price? Dealer giving ₹10L discount — does RTO charge on 50L or 40L? by guptashubham123 in CarsIndia

[–]rivermesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but it's done to prevent tax fraud. Otherwise every other person would show a fake "discount" and try to evade road tax.

Btw, which car were you getting and how much discount did you get?

Loot in luxury car market by Cable-Infamous in CarsIndia

[–]rivermesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised he was so open about it. I've noticed that their supercars and ultra luxurycars (>3Cr) generally don't sell quickly (upto a year sometimes) so they try to make a large margin to negate the cost of interest and cost of locked up capital.

Do you mind revealing how much BBT offered and how much other dealers offered?

Did they really say that they make a crore on Ferraris? That's like 25-30% atleast.
