    No major issue. Tell carmart to obtain an amended invoice with the correct name and the local bank will amend the LC which is a simple process.

    Yep they did allow me to be near the vehicle

    Just an update. Did my service at Drive one. Staff was very helpful and they did allow me to stay close to my vehicle while service is done. Cost 70K (I think they charge a registration fee for gray imports.) Overall it was far better than my experiences at Bosch and Vishwa Motors. I told them I had few rat attacks in the past and they gave me a rat repellant spray free of charge. Apparently its a common occurrence in new Audi's.

    1. Difference is the double taped gold colour logo itself fitted by the car sale guy. 2. There is no Vezel G model

    maybe some makabass has tried to change the oil and ruined it. Agent would be the safer bet

    The agent di do a clutch oil change every 15000Km on the vezel due to the DCD issue So better take to the agents

    There are some KIA and Hyundai models going around here of similar kind. Apparently Hyundai has sold nearly 40 units since launching last month in SL after take over by Abans. Vehicles are not very attractive aesthetically

    I do not know why you need to give the car to your GF when you are there. I never give my car to my wife, unless she has to go without me

    B'cos the steering was being turned may be the system assumed that there will not be a crash so the auto brake did not get activated. That's how my car behaves

    As per photos Your bonnet and front buffer fit is imperfect. You may have issues when selling the car some day as it clearly indicate an accident.

    on second thought if it comes as a gift I don't think you even have to open an LC. You can TT the cash and tell you relative to ship the vehicle and courier the documents for clearing. Talk to a bank trade guy, I may be wrong.
  14. Quiet
    importers normally undervalue for many other reasons. If the bank accepts you will have no issue in opening a personal LC for any value you want.

    stay away from Panda, Demio for me is the best outta the selection but doubt if it achieve 10Kmpl in city traffic.

    lodge a police entry with reason for loosing the first one, If you have the removed one with you attaching it with RMV doc's will help greatly.

    you will have to bare the cost for a double transfer

    Ah ok never used garmin so cant comment, im using Google maps through Carplay, so far no issues with live traffic updates etc. I also tried using Waze, which supposedly will give updates on cops etc etc. but since community in Sri Lanka is not active shifted to google maps.

    3Km a day mean 1.5Km one way. I would rather walk the 1.5Km and have a fixed deposit from 3.5Mn odd cash saving and hire a vehicle from interest when you go on long journeys. Huge cash saving

    I used to have a X limited with the tachometer and no Climate control and with halogen scoop lights. This was a 2007 model imported directly by me.

    Why bother if you have carplay or Android Auto

    You will find plenty of Indian ALTO's still under warranty and with very low mileage and well maintained. If you see one need to act fast as these move like hot cakes as it one of the vehicles that is affordable to masses. I was looking for one few months back but could not even look at one as all good specimens were sold within few hours of advertising

    You are allowed to drive the vehicle from port to sale or home provided you have proof documents of clearing as well as insurance. Normally car sales guys also drive the vehicles but under CC plates which have comprehensive insurance cover. If you have a friend with CC plates you can borrow that would be the best option.

    The same information was circulated some time back expecting tax increase. Nothing happened. I do not think this will happen until the parliamentary elections are done. Just a gimmick by the vehicle importers to get rid of stocks

    In the past tax was based on brand new agent valuation minus a depreciation for the number of years. I think these guys will go back to the same system.
