I'm going against popular opinion and booking XUV 700 today.

1. It's Family Choice (read with font size 70)
2. In the segment it's VFM, due to the discount I'm getting it in my budget under 20L
3. Harrier and Safari are amazing but out of the budget.
4. Scorpio N doesn't give that luxury feeling.
5. Never checked or even thought about Hector.
6. Getting all the bells and whistles in my budget.
7. Travel due to work is completely stopped so it will be used only for trips.
8. One last diesel vehicle of life before Nitin Uncle Bann it.
9. More square feet and more CC at a good price

Only issue, its not RWD.

Make : Maruti Suzuki
Model : Jimny
Variant : Zeta
Powertrain: 1.5L Manual AllGrip Pro
Fuel : Petrol
Color : Pearl Arctic White
Booked on : 27th Oct 2024
Booking Amount: ₹ 39,000(It was only 11k, I chose to pay more)
Delivery date : TBC (Car is in transit)
Discounts : Got a decent discount, not as much as what it was earlier. But I am satisfied with what I paid.

This is the sweetest little car I have driven, so much character in that efficient package. Pure Retro vibes. Was seriously considering the Thar P MT 4x4 and almost booked it, but just out of sheer curiosity rang up the nearest Nexa dealer on a lazy Sunday and they turned up with the test drive car in 30 minutes. A long 10km drive in the Jimny swayed my decision and ended up with me booking the car the same day. Cannot wait to go on adventures on and off the beaten path with the Jimny. Pure heart decision this.

Congratulations on your new Jimny. Wish you many years of wonderful time with it.

I had a TD of Jimny, liked what I experienced and now in the process of extracting a better deal from the dealer. I haven't paid the booking amount yet.

I am looking for Zeta Automatic and the discount offered is Rs 80,000 and Maruti Finance discount of Rs 95,000. Total discount is Rs 1,75,000 (with finance). This present discount is about half of July month discount of around Rs 3.4 Lakh (many got 4 Lakh discount in July month).

I have been holding firm to get a discount equivalent to the July month discount or somewhere thereabouts. The dealer hasn't blinked and so have I. We both are holding off till say, December month year end discount sales which is when both hope to get the best possible deal on the car.

If you don't mind, could you please tell us how much discount you were able to get for your Zeta MT? I am trying to understand the present demand supply situation here and if I should cut some slack and take whatever is offered. Thanks

A surprise beater car replacement. I had no plans for a new car, but my father told me he found Celerio to be uncomfortable. I took this opportunity to dispose the only unsafe car in my garage (all other cars are 5 star GNCAP rated) and buy a safer car.

Replacing my 2021 Celerio

Reason : Need for a safer and more comfortable car

Make : Maruti Suzuki
Model : 2024 Dzire
Variant : ZXI
Transmission : Manual
Color : Bluish Black
Expected Delivery : In 4 to 6 weeks(planning Jan 25 registration)

OTR exclusive of accessories: INR 10,51,000

Very glad to go back to Maruti and choose a safe car. I liked the car after test drive. It's slow but more than enough for a beater car. This will be my 9th Maruti car in 25 years

Here's adding to the list, our first luxury car

Make : Mercedes-Benz

Interior Colour : Beige

It has been my father's lifelong dream to buy one, and he is really excited about it. Special thanks to our SA, Mr. Aditya, who gave us a wonderful showroom experience and a detailed TD.
This car is actually a demonstrator vehicle and had run only 593 KM, hence the lower price. It is the MY2024 vehicle with Ventilated Front Seats and the Burmester Sound System. We got STAR Agility on this vehicle as it was only 20 days old.

I'll post an ownership review as soon as the car comes.
Cheers
