My dealer is acting funny when it comes to Maruti insurance saying they dont have tie up with this company and that company and not giving me a number where I can discuss things like NCB.

Assuming Tata Aig delays this process, shall I take Maruti insurance for 24k without NCB and in the next one year sell my old vehicle and hopefully tata will add another 5% of NCB to the existing 25%? and then I tell Maruti to take 30% from year two premium? does it work that way?

I dont know which dealer is this. Which insurance company is it ? Please check with the insurance company directly.

TATA AIG can give you NCB certificate when you sell the car and new owner transfers insurance to his/her name. In case you are retaining the old car also, you can get a new TP insurance for your old car and ask TATA AIG to provide NCB certificate.

Even if you get the new insurance from Maruti for 24K, you can produce the NCB Certificate to them later and ask them to endorse NCB in current year insurance certificate and also refund the amount by a cheque.

This is the correct process and if any Maruti SE is acting funny, fight him off.

Hi Arnprasad...Congrats for the LUV !!!

As per the past experience the Insurance quote given by the dealers are bit higher than we take from others. You need to check with Tata Aig if they have tieup with the dealers workshop incase of any claim. Dealer will always insist you to take insurance from them.

Regarding No Claim Bonus you can transfer the existing car's NCB to new car. If the insurance company of your old car is different then you need to provide the NCB certificate to the new insurance company which is valid for 1 month and the new insurance company will refund you the NCB. If you are short of time now, just pay the full insurance to tata AIG and then get the refund of NCB later.

Cheers

Hi friends
This Diwali I became a proud owner of Ertiga VDI - Granite Grey. Thanks to you guys for all feedbacks given in this forum which has helped me to freeze on Ertiga; though I was bit reluctant to go for another Maruti Car ( I own a Wagon R for last 8 Yrs).
Already completed 5000 Kms in last 2 months and enjoying every moment spend with my new Ertiga.
Earlier I was having little doubt on its City Driving capability (turbo Lag etc) but it’s not that disappointing; and once you are in Turbo Zone than this beauty becomes a beast. I am loving it.
Few Accessories which I have added so far based on many reviews on this forum
1. 3M Mats
2. 3M Under body Coating
3. 3M Door Edge Guard
4. 3M door Handle Inserts
5. Reverse Parking sensor
6. Gear Lock from Minda (MGA)
As usual very bad experience with MASS (sales and service both); they only concentrate on getting higher feedback points irrespective of their service Quality. I have given 1 point for their service and 2 points for overall sales experience.
I had a little argument with the service adviser on improper cleaning; which resulted in removal of A/C water drainage pipe by him; and fortunately I noticed water in car through A/C pipe next day while doing vacuuming and got it fixed with another MASS. All this resulted in negative service feedback and now for last 15 days they started harassing me by calling me daily to give them revised ratings with a SORRY word. Won Mixer Grinder under rotate the wheel diwali scheme; which now has been changed to Silver coin after the above incidence. Still I did’t get my RC; they are telling me to check at RTO by my own.

Dear Ertiga Owners,

I had been contemplating to purchase Ertiga Zdi for quiet some time. Today I had got the below quote from one of the chennai dealer for Dec 2013 manufactured vehicle. Only Dusky Brown is available for this price as he has the Dec 2013 vehicle. For other colors would be 2014 manufactured models and would have 5-6 % more price.
On Road - 10, 63,636
Cash Discount-25000
Discount of 3rd & 4th Year Warranty - 11000
Corporate Discount - 1500

So it comes to 10,26,136

Can you please guide me whether this is good price and shall I go ahead on the purchase.
Also whether buying Dec 2013 manufactured vehicle is sensible now.

Thanks for your immediate reply DJ Bro. I have only got the quote. I haven't yet discussed about the accessories or any other things in this. Probably I would take down further based our forum friends suggestion.
Also I am not clear on the pros and cons on buying a Dec 2013 manufactured vehicle now.

wow seems like the offer of 3rd and 4th year warranty off is January 2014 offer? also you are getting 25K off as discount.

Typically both these discounts/waivers are initiated by Maruti and not by dealers. Do these vary state by state because in Bangalore they quoting only 15K cash discount off...[surprise]

Hi

Mods: I hope there is nothing wrong in posting threads from other automative sites.

Just saw this thread and his experience is similar to mine. Booked in last week of december and got delivery yesterday. He says he received 40K of cash discount and 10 K of 3rd and 4th year warranty off.

http://www.********.com/forum/official-new-car-reviews/119545-maruti-ertiga-official-review-104.html

I checked online for Chennai prices hoping to find city to city differences and their discounts is similar to what they are offering in Bangalore - 15K cash discount and no third and fourth year warranties.

So my question to my chennai friends is to confirm if they are getting more discounts then what Maruti is advertising.

I got only 20K discount as advertised by maruti and I paid 10K for 3rd and 4th year warranty. ALthough I dont want to spoil my new car party - somehow feel cheated. Buying a car between different people should not be similar to bargaining for vegetables. I can understand some people bargaining better for few accessories - but getting 15-20K additional cash discounts and 10K 3rd and 4th year warranty discounts - I feel cheated.[confused]

Would want to hear from all of you. For now I will give them a bad rating[anger]

Discounts vary from City to City and from one dealer to another dealer. The discount specified by Maruti is the minimum discounts dealers should give.
