My Scorpio Reaches Home and Gets Smiles Along

[mukeshus]

as far as i know the pictures are from the yard.
The antenna is connected at the showroom alongwith the accessories.
So what about the ICE, seat covers krish?

I don't think so, my Hawk came with OEM Nippon, which was there when the hawk had rolled out from the factory.

As his is Lx, I don't think that was equipped.

i am not sure about that but it was the case with my SLE.

it was fitted in the showroom during delivery process maybe they might have removed it during the first polish/prep before delivery.

Congrats Krish, your Scorpio looks very mean in misty silver.

Also, what is the cost of alloys and have you upgraded your tires as well?

 

[Iron Rock]

Congrats Krish finally it happened, looking forward to a detailed ownership review from you especially.

Mukesh- Nice catch. Yes I have taken out that external antenna and got a Internal electronic receiver which is famous mostly in TATA Safris. Again, Its free so what the heck

I always use to get it done after 3rd service as the car is brand new and Bangalore is not a Sea shore city.
Is this not adviceable?

it should be fine if humidity is not an issue.

for coastal areas though it recommended.

many congrats krish_go finally you got it.

But trust me, the signal receiving capability of external one is better than the internal receiver, is what i feel.

I was once able to get Big 92.7 Fm kannada station in Ooty, so much is the capacity of the external antenna.

I have not yet gone for those coatings till now, though i do occasional trips to the Mangalore and other humid areas.
body coating
Not needed till the 4th year is my view, as these cars would have undergone those coatings in the factory.

About the external antenna. Yes they are good. The internal ones suffer from disturbance when there is an auto nearby or when one honks the horn. Nothing of that sort with the external antenna.

Also krish why did you opt for the 9 seater. 7 seater would have been much more comfy.

This internet is an electronic and does like an mobile signal receiver. till now, i felt it was better than my previous Bolero/Alto external as the reception in my -2 cellar parking was still strong.
Reason for 9 seater becos if third row is occupied by even 2 its comfy for them and it was not taking up any luggage space and of-course it was free :)

Superbad do we get a 7 seater option in lx model ? If that's the case it will be really great my friend has a 9 seater option and the second row becomes quite uncomfortable at times specially when the front seats are pulled back .
