Congrats for your new car raga, Can you tell me the total onroad price on your buy.

Tell me more about this Ford midnight dhamakka offer, till when will this offer be lasted.
You must be very lucky on getting Samsung Galaxy phone.

About the arm rest, is it possible to get arm rests for the rear seats?

It is not possible to fit an aftermarket rear armrest that looks like OEM. You probably have an option to swap the entire seat with the upper variant’s of same car model (if it comes equipped with one). But then, that isn’t a feasible solution and not worth it.

Tell me more about this Ford midnight dhamakka offer, till when will this offer be lasted.

Ford December Dhamaal normally happens in December (Stock Clearance). Although Ford also recently announced it in May for the first time (http://www.theautomotiveindia.com/f...tended-may-showrooms-open-until-midnight.html).

For me it just so happened, like 350z suggested it only happens in December this time they did for May, 2012 as well. But they have 40 days to deliver the phone after taking delivery of the car.

Congrats on the new car buddy.. That looks an extensive list of mods.

You need to buy higher model rear seat and fit it. Thats the best option for now.

Some of the accessories I got it done already. I will post you guys update in a day or 2.

There is no ZETEC version here, but I think they had a sports edition some time back! Or they may call it something else here.

9) Start/Stop button

It seems that Ford could do this on Fiesta Classic. Here’s a related link which might be useful: http://www.theautomotiveindia.com/f...e-start-stop-button-keyless-go-ford-figo.html.

Am sorry for delayed response. I bought it from St. Marks road. On-road price was 8.20 lacs.

Finally managed to get snaps of my beauty.

Here goes exterior all around pics:





Body graphics & Mag Wheels























Leather seats



7 inch Car Entertainment System with Bluetooth, GPS, Rear Camera, iPHONE, AUX-IN, Radio, DVD etc







City Clutch



City Clutch - Gear Knob



City Clutch - On/Off button



I was trying to get lockers done for the body graphics on the car, and my neighborhood painting guy quoted 10k. I felt its too high. Is the price worth it? Please do suggest.

Alrite that was the snaps of my beauty. In my next post I will write about the Metro Fords refund chaos and City Clutch experience. Stay tuned!!!

The design of alloys is awesome. Personally I didn’t like the graphics though. A spoiler should complement the sporty looks. My dealer is quoting around 7,000 for the “S” type spoiler. Looking forward to the next post with details on further accessorization and city clutch.

Congrats Ragha2010 on your new Fiesta, you were the guy who was confused to buy an i20 in 2010.

I liked the graphics on the car.

Btw what is that city clutch, can you elaborate???

Btw you too are using Belkin charger, don't forget to switch it off, before switching off the car.

Same while starting the car too.

Neat alloys brother,but i feel that the graphic's are too gaudy(no offence) will be eagerly awaiting for your next post.

You are right, I booked i20 and got fedup with Hyundai dealership and cancelled it then bought used Verna. Had to let go of Verna last month because of personal reasons then finally got Fiesta!!

Re the graphics it could have been better, glad you like it :)

City clutch turns your car into Semi automatic. Unlike an automatic car, where there is no clutch operate similarly with this device you can drive your car without having to operate clutch, the device takes care of clutch operation.

Neat alloys brother,but i feel that the graphic's are too gaudy(no offence) will be eagerly awaiting for your next post.

Thanks, true graphic's are hit or miss at the moment ;) It looks neat from certain angles tho :)
