Re: Suzuki's New Premium Hatchback Baleno Now Launched!

I would say RTGS is more safe, since the safety aspect is given to the Banker and deposit account is verified, in my career I have seen cases where after receiving DD's people have opened accounts in the beneficiary account name and deposited the amount plus you have to entrust the Sales staff at Dealers with a high value DD's. Quite Frankly I have a very poor opinion of the front end sales staff at dealers and most of them are there because of compulsion rather than choice, just get the Finance staff at the Dealer to confirm the Bank account details.

Re: Suzuki's New Premium Hatchback Baleno Now Launched!

Hi Guys,

This is my first post.
I had booked Baleno Alpha petrol on Feb 2016 at Kayani Nexa Bangalore.
In the receipt the delivery date was marked as August(6 Months).
I received no updates whatsoever. [frustration]
Today I received a message saying this

"Dear Customer, We would like to inform you that due to overwhelming response there will be delay in delivery of your car.We sincerely regret for the inconvenience caused. Team Nexa"

Second Message
"Dear customer, We would request you, not to make ay down payment until your car gets allocated. Team Nexa"

Did anyone else receive susch messages?
What does this mean?
How much longer should I wait ?[anger]

@Maniac,

That email is effectively a disclaimer.

Reply to that email and copy your NEXA. Ask they for a committed date or week of delivery and tell them that if there is no response, you will cancel the booking and go to the competition.
In case you got that as an SMS, record your case with the Nexa helpline with the same terms

Re: Suzuki's New Premium Hatchback Baleno Now Launched!

Hi Guys,

It's been almost a month, after I received delivery of my Baleno Delta, Petrol CVT, Premium Silver. I plan to write a complete ownership review of my car later point in time. Before I do that, this is just the teaser [:D].

Initial launch images of Baleno appeared on multiple websites, and I just did not like the car design. But then as the reviews started to come in, the car just started to grow up on me. Went to see the car in person on 8th Nov 2015 at Navnit Nexa, Andheri West, Mumbai. The car looked big and impressive from the inside as well as from the outside. I was immediately attended by the RM Mr. Shahid Shaikh and the overall experience was very good for me. I had heard about the horror stories of potential customers, who were completely neglected in the Nexa Showrooms. My experience was completely different. I was greeted, given a place to sit, offered beverages, got shown around the car and got details on the features. As result of this treatment I received, I left the Showroom satisfied. I will definitely recommend to talk with Mr. Shahid Shaikh / Mr. Aman if you are going to book a car from Navnit Nexa at Andheri West. You can give them my reference.

Went back to the showroom on 12th November 2015 to book the car. Had given the preferences of Ray Blue and Premium Silver. RM told me approx waiting time for the car will be 3 months, which was not a deal breaker for me as I wanted 2016 manufactured car. Once the Maruti Suzuki Factory started manufacturing cars for 2016 in January 2016, I started the follow up with the Nexa dealership. and was promised delivery in either last week of February 2016 or First week of March 2016. Then in beginning of February found out that my sequence number for Ray Blue Baleno was 51 and for Premium silver was 15. Hence I asked the RM to confirm my final color as Premium Silver.

Was allocated the car on 15th February 2016. It took a whole week for the car to reach the dealers stockyard near Bhiwandi from Manesar. Asked RM for PDI at the Stockyard and he readily agreed. After satisfactory PDI at the stockyard, delivery of the car was arranged on 27th February 2016. Reached the dealership and got final formalities completed and took the delivery.

Following are the pictures immediately after the delivery.





Got few accessories from Nexa like Mud Flaps, Seat covers, under-body anti-rust coating, Fog Lamps, Body Cover. Got few accessories from outside like floor mats, Deodorizer and new alloys for my Lady :stupid:. This is how she looks in her new avatar.





To conclude, It was not all happy during the complete transaction. Had to face few niggles, but overall experience was good. I will cover all the details in complete ownership review. That's all for my first post on TAI. Signing off for now.

Congratulations rpari on your new vehicle...

Just one quick question - Are those rubber paddings on the left side of the car, are they part of Baleno Delta model or extra added later ?

If extra, what is the cost for the same ?

Thanks puneetuguru.

The rubber paddings are the body side mouldings fitted as Nexa accessory. It costs Rs. 1790.

This is one set which suits majority of car types. From the Figo to the Baleno to the Ciaz to the S Cross, this design looks excellent. Elegance and aggression, both in one design. Many people have gone for the same set.

And congratulations rpari. Welcome to the Baleno club!
