Michelin Primacy was another option in the same size but was slightly more expensive. Wanted to try UC6 since it came with a good warranty and is a popular model these days.

So Michelin Primacy in this size are no longer to be found. Doesn't surprise me, looks like another victim of this Govt's policies on tyre imports.

Spoke to a few dealers and contacts for the 205/55/R17 and more than one called this an "odd" tyre size for some reason.

Anyways, if I want to swap these, the only choice seems to be an upsize to 215/55/R17 which is a 1.67% difference to the stock spec.

Options available on the 215's are:
Michelin Primacy 4 ST
Yokohama E400
Yokohama AE51
Goodyear ATM2
Bridgestone T001
Continental UC6
MRF Wanderer ST
Apollo Aspire 4G Plus
Ceat Secura Drive SUV 94V
JK UX1

I'm not to sure I want to go and upsize on day1 so looks like I may give this a pass for now. What a shame.

Skoda Auto India has announced all-new, exclusive Elegance Edition of the Kushaq, will be powered exclusively by the 1.5 TSI.

Is it appraisal time at VW/Skoda? Someone is really getting very creative with the sticker editions!

[nvssudheer]

Despite many cosmetic gimmicks in this one, the black color with those dual tone alloys is a tasty offering. A good slightly cheaper alternative to Monte Carlo edition for those who want something different.

I am an ardent follower of TeamBHP threads lately and have observed people mentioning that Zekardo provides good services at nominal rate (2500/- I think). You can opt for them if you're not 100% confident of doing it yourself.

Please do follow the TeamBHP PDI checklist if you're doing it yourself. You can always take a friend along to help you out. Congratulations on your new car!

Use Tbhp checklist and do it yourself, why pay 2500 for something you can do yourself, moreover the car has warranty of 4 years as standard, so nothing to worry about.

Sorry to bother you guys again on PDI. Tomorrow, I have PDI scheduled for Skoda Kushaq here in Bangalore. I had first visited dealer X but they said there is no offer going as they have got 2024 series cars only.

Then I visited dealer Y , and I got a discount and a complimentary 4-year maintenance package so I booked.

This evening I got a message from previous dealer X that they have one 2023 series Car for discount offer. X was saying we would match the price if I showed them; though I have it, I did not show it. I know they will match it or will give better. Anyhow, I do not wish to trade for 10-20K gain.

But dealer X put me in doubt that as you are getting a complimentary maintenance package that means you are getting already invoiced Skoda Car.

I am not sure if they deliberately told me to misguide or it might be the fact.

So, my question is, even if it is already invoiced does it matter? What precautions should I take? I can ask the dealer if it was already invoiced, but they can conceal the facts.

Kindly help me with this. What if it was already invoiced and I am unable to identify the same, and I go for payment after what will be the repercussion of the same?

Kindly help asap.

What do they mean by "already invoiced"?

The complimentary SVP is being given as a promotional offer from Skoda and not the dealer. Technically, you should get the same offer from dealer X as well.

Please ask both dealers for the VIN numbers of the cars they are proposing to sell you.

[CarBabu]

In the Kusaq 1.0 AT pricing and commitment form, in offer section they have given 25 K discount for DAN.
What does DAN discount means ? Anybody know the meaning or full form of DAN..Does it reflect it is defective or something?
Please share if Anybody aware

Is it dangerous to drive on flooded streets?

Chennai is currently flooded. I'm forced to drive on flooded streets.

Today after browsing through the threads here,realised it's very bad to drive on flooded roads.

What should I do now that I already drove through flooded streets? What to check now? Honestly worried after reading the threads.

I own AT.

Generally if it is monthly offer, dealer has to invoice the car so he gets reimbursement from manufacturer.

If car is already invoiced means, it is shown as sold in manufacturer - dealer system. Warranty and SMP starts from date of invoice entered in that system. Check this with dealer and ask him to be open. If not post your purchase, you can see it in end user mobile app. Ideally it should be your date of invoice

Dear Fellow BHPians,

I am going in for the purchase of Kushaq Style edition and need help with PDI. If there are any members in Chandigarh and can spare time on the weekend of Dec 9/10, please message me. I will be happy to treat them for lunch.

Hi Fellows

I am planning to buy a 8 months old Kushaq. Want to know if standard warranty is transferrable to second owner. Someone told me that warranty is valid only for first purchase.
