Rajeevraj 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2008 Its the VDI they have modified. Not the ZDi. The salesman himself agreed that if you do the same mods outside it will be much cheaper. BTW they have mods for swift wagonR estilo and even teh 800. They call it BIMAL Premium edition. I liked the mods on the swift. Changes include the bumper styling. Its that lowhanging bumper... not sure how to explain it. and upsizing of tyres and alloys. Looks cool. I think it is same as the mods rshh has done on his swift...

pryas 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2008 @ rajeev the Dzire VDi Costs 6.6 lakhs on road in mangalore , and i dont think it costs above 6.7 in bangalore , i feel you should go ahead with the Dzire Vdi , infact i too have booked a Dzire that is Silver ZXi it costed me 6.5 lakhs on road , very busy with exams and all those stuffs Regards, Priya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rajeevraj 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2008 oops my mistake/ sorry what i mentioned was the ZDI not VDI. ZDI is 7.57 on road and VDI is 6.59 as priya mentioned. Nearly a lakh difference. But you get stuff like ABS, Airbags, Alloys only in the ZXi and ZDi. So probably worth it i suppose. ZXi is 6.65 on road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pryas 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2008 actually the VDi or the VXi has the Music system , BC Door handles and ORVMS but it lakhs the ACC , alloys , wider tyres , ABS and dual airbags since my running is low i decided for the petrol and my friend is having a swift Diesel Vdi already, there is around 2 - 3months waiting for petrol Dzire and 4 - 6 months for Diesel dzire. btw which color did you book for ?

Rajeevraj 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2008 Not booked. Planning to do. Want to go for the ZXi or ZDI. My running is not much so probably ZXI is the better choice but i have heard huge number of compliments about the diesal of the swift so due to that want to go for ZDI Maybe that will tempt me to go for longer drives without worrying about the cost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regards, Priya[/quote'] You forgot to mention the Audio controls on the Strg Wheel and the Ht adjustable seat belts and ht adjuster in the Fr Driver Seat, Rake in the Strg Wheel and what else? Thats about it, I guess. Don't opt for the Diesel, unless you really need it in terms of running around atleast 1000 km a month, or maybe a bit more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
