Even I thought the capacitive touch screen won't be good but believe me, it is good. You can't expect it to be like our mobile phone but it's smooth and good. It will sure last long.
About the engine, it's s proven engine and TATA been running this engine for a while now. Though you will hear some noise inside the cabin, but its what you get when you but a diesel car. Car is powerful and the pick up is good.
If you are looking some specific answer let me know, I will be more brief
Congrats on your new car!!!
Wish you a happy million miles on your zest.

Hi
First, thanks for your wishes
#Can't much say about the FE since I have covered only 350km till now inside city b2b traffic but as per the display it says 12 kml ( if that helps). Check the FE by other owner who has completed 3500 km and he is getting around 17-19kml ( check other ownership review).
#Regarding the 3M, unable to find the bill but below is the approx cost of service I agreed (including tax)
Anti corrosion (3 yrs): 3k
3M film: 22k
Ppf: 2k
Paint essential: 3k
# I have already uploaded the pic of the door pad without beige color.

When does this started?
Last Sunday I visited AutoVikas to inquire about my Zest XT Revotron booking status and saw one XT getting ready for Delivery. It had 8 spoke alloy wheel. I even asked my SA if my XT alloy wheel get exchanged with lower model spoke wheel, to which he flatly refused.[frustration]
It would be very great if I too get the 18 spoke alloy as it looks perfect with dune beige color.
Did you bought insurance from dealer or outside?
Hi Samk,
Thanks for your wishes. I believe the decision about alloy wheel is purely depend upon the dealer.
Regarding the insurance I took from the dealer, it was TATA AIG, B2b costed around 28k

Thanks for your response Sundarmani.. My zest is going to be delivered by this weekend. I am confused between taking insurance from dealer or from outside. While insurance from dealer is costly (26k for b2b), it's advantage is that it would be cashless across all tata service center. On the other hand insurance from outside (tata aig 20k for b2b) is comparatively cheaper but have limited cashless option. Please suggest what should I do.

I prefer for outside insurance because the saved amount can be used for other accessories and other stuff. Where as if you take from dealer it will be comprehensive insurance and it wont cover all. Yes you will have cashless as advantage there.
Ok do one thing if you are really bothered about the cashless option at dealer check with SA of insurance agent ask their manager for negotiation for b2b .

Hi carlover,
Below is the video. Won't say this is the best but with my phone spec and other envt,. This is what I came out with.
I took this video early on the morning with windows closed and Ac off. I would say, if you keep the rpm between 1500 and 2000 in all gears, NVH is best.

Thanks a lot for posting the video. I am sorry I was busy with my own car problems hence didn't visit your thread. Thanks a lot once again. Though I have another question, how would you compare the 0-100 timings to Amaze,Etios,Dzire etc.
