First tyre puncture @3030 KM reading.








The CEAT shop guy damaged the under paint area by placing the jack under the wrong area. A large area paint came off, although it isn't visible from near.

Servicing or repair? I am sure you must have not completed 15k kms so soon. Your car is looking pretty good in that pic with the sea in the backdrop. I wanted to ask you one thing though, have you had any trouble driving a Haryana temporary registered vehicle in Vizag. I mean with the cops and all.

Service so soon? [surprise] You either drive a lot, and I mean, really lot or I am missing something here.

The car looks good btw. Nice color. I thought the shadow blue wouldn't suit the Polo because it is smaller than the Vento but I have been proved wrong.

Regards,
Vipin

I meant I have given the car to get the dent repaired. Previously, he said it will take around 15 days but now he got a spare door so he will be able to finish the work in a week.

I have completed 4000 kms in 2 months.

@GM88,
No, never faced any issue like that. :)

@VipinLJ,
Yeah. :)
I was going to opt for Red color but this one stole my heart.

Called up SC in the afternoon, they intimated that I'll be getting the car by tomorrow. [:D]

Planning to get door sill plates, interior leather and tyre foam.

Red has become quite common now. This shadow blue is a royal color and the combo of red tail lights and blue body looks so good.

Once I used tyre foam, found it to be utter waste of money. You may try it still, may be I didn't apply the proper way.

Got my car back from the service center. They replaced the door and painted the remaining part. I had to pay Rs. 2940/- and the insurance claim was Rs. 17,xxx/-.
