Guy's did anyone installed alloys other than that comes from Ford? Any suggessions?
Not yet kinky but waiting to install soon.

Thanks abhi . . the dealer will never promise a delivery date when we book its our follow up which will get the things done . After I got my vehicle alloyed , I got the vehicle on my convenient day.


my sa first told me that u will get your delievery somewhere around mid of sep but when i visited him today he told me that you will get your delievery somewhere around end of sep or around mid of october, so wat will u advice me to do.
thanks in advance
Just keep asking him the reason. Probably he must have alloted your vehicle to someone. Not sure but just a chance. Try to tell him that you need the car as soon as possible by citing some reason.

Thanks for the nice pics and inputs on the price of the alloy wheels.[clap]

Just wanted to know if you bought the alloys directly or did you book it online.
i just enquired about the alloys from the shop through mail because my es is not delievered yet and this is the price for delhi location only as the price for the other location may vary.

But this is the labor cost right and not the actual cost of the spare parts? Kindly confirm. Did you get the list of spare parts cost by any chance? Do keep us updated.
Ya buddy it is! My bad, was in a hurry so did not note properly.

Sai Mag wheels are looking very good! as my first service is over now, I am thinking to change wheels soon by retaining my steel wheels.

Vicky90,
Can you please comment on the interior quality of the vehicle? Any rattles/Squeaks?
No squeaks and rattles till 2750 kms though I feel the interior could have been a bit better.
Feels better each day!
Mileage is improving now.
First it was 17.47 kmpl avg for 46 litres,
then it became around 17.71 kmpl for 45l avg,
now it is 18.22 kmpl for same 45l.

Abhi, do not leave him. Shoot a mail to GM telling your needs or write2md asking the real cause.

you can go for sai mag wheels but one thing they dont do fitment and other stuff..they just sell alloys and nothing else.

Ya sure abhi!
Will consider this as a serious option! also, will have a look at mostly good brands like plati, lenzo etc which comes less than 30k.

Hi All,
Finally all the late night researches, queries, calls are in vain....:(
Yes I'm thinking of cancelling my booking as my Mom is not convinced with the Ecosport. Unlike others, from day-1 only she is not convinced with the modern, sporty looks of it and started comparing it with Innova comforts (truly Innova's comfort is no way matchable but also I agree they are from different segments and actually we should not compare). So finally she decided to go with Innova once again.

And in this confusion stage, I've got a call from Kaikan Ford that I'll be getting my Ecosport delivery in the next week. Color: Blue, variant: Diesel Trend (it has just shipped from Chennai).

So, if anyone is interested but hit by the long queue, can take my booking at NO EXTRA COST....
Also if you are interested in any other variant/color and want my booking, can contact me as basically I've booked it with Variant option "Open" (Trend/Titanium/Optional), color option: Silver/Grey/Blue/White. I hope my booking(for Titanium) will also make it's place in the next shipment.
You can reach me at my mail: sikdar.sourav@gmail.com

Regards,
Sourav
