Got a dent on my rear door . What should I do ? It's 2 inch in length and .5 inch deep .:(
Uhhh. get a quote from local garage first. do you have zero depreciation insurance if so then you can go with insurance. but atleast get a quote first from local.

Hi All,

I got my red little wonder on 2nd August. I booked the car on last july and wanted to take the delevery the car on 2nd August which was done.I have chosen the S(O)MT model.The following offer got from the Dealer:-

Free Insurance
Free Antirust
Free 4 Mats

Except the above I took 0 Dep addon, extended warrenty and rear and front corner protector.

I want to share something why I chose Honda Brio:-

Initially I didn't like the back view of the car so I go for test drive for i10,Beats,Swift,Figo,Etios Liva. For me i10 is OK, Beats is too culmsy in the back sit,Etios Liva i am not comfortable in the driver seat and price is more than it looks, for swift older vertion look was better and and break is not that smooth, now comes to FIGO it is OK with me but the looks is old because Ford introduce 1st Fushion then remake the car and it became FIGO.I have also take a test drive of EON and felt some how it's better then ALTO.

some some friend ask me for take a test drive for Honda Brio, so went for that. When I was sit in the driving sit my first impression was WOH. I am feeling that it was not small hatch back car it is a Sedan car sitting. The interiour is good. The engine is so good noice free and the driving was soooo smooth like a knife in a butter.

Also to be honest that not only my friend told me to take test Honda Brio my interst arises main reason was good ownership review from Sudeep Roy.

Thanks buddy [:D] to help me out for the selection of the car.

Now the last day when I am driving a bus was come from left side and done a little scratch, break the left mirror and a dent [cry]. I took the car to dealer the go for the insurance claim because as per inpection the total cost'll be min 8000 buks. thanks to 0 dep. insurance which information got from sudeep Roy. thanks buddy once again. I'll get the car this saturday.

Hi Guys ,

It's almost 2 months , my blue brio (SMT) model started getting rust on the rear bumper .
As it is my first car , I have no idea whether it is natural or should I contact the Honda Dealer . As the time of purchasing 4-5 dots were there , but now 15 - 20 came up .
It is not visible unless you come closer (around 1-2 mtrs) .

Is it obvious or defect in painting ? Guys kindly give your valuable suggestion . Thanks :)
