I had booked a Swift VDI in Bimal Indiranagar showroom on 13th Dec 08 for sunlight copper color. The delivery time indicated was 3-4 months. In March when i approached the showrrom the team lead said all VDI customers would be given preference for Swift dzire. I changed the booking to swift dzire ZDI and the team lead said delivery would be effected within a month. On constant follow up one day the sales person said you have booked your car only on 27th March and hence you are the last in the queue. There was no response on what is the prefeerence given to VDI customers. As no official response was forthcoming I spoke to the Maruto representative Mr.kaushik and he says the car will atke 8-9 months for delivery. He said there are 8 ZDI bookings in all at Bimal and I am 8th on the list. Bimal indicated to me the car would be delivered in the next despatch! Lack of transparency and tendency to take the customer for granted is a starking reality in Bimal showrooms. The situation is much better in Chennai where the showroom atleast indicates a tentative date for delivery at the time of booking.
