My Honda city VMT petrol Golden brown metallic has left the factory on 17th Feb, I had booked the car on 21st October 2014 and was promised delivery in Feb, so the the dealer Magnum Honda Bangalore has kept their word. Eagerly waiting to see my golden brown Angel. Let the sleepless nights begin.

Here most of friends are telling that, they are offered by freebies like mud flap, floor mat, idol and Steering grip while booking the new car. I think the dealers are including this cost in the head of basic accessories for 2k to 3k. Am I correct friend?

Since I got quote for Alto 800 from 3 dealers in Coimbatore, and they included this as basic accessories.

Yes the dealer does try to charge for this but do not pay it since all these items are for free.

Akash

PS: Buddy, simply refuse to take all these items from them if they force you to pay. In my uncle's agency here this basic kit is always discounted.
