I am stuck and I am not able to get out of of it. Actually I booked a stupid toyota corolla on 9th June, and I was promised the delivery within 1 month. The showroom owner is my fathers acquaintance and he said I will probably get the car for you in 3 weeks. Its 16th July now and I have been calling them right after the 3rd week of booking to check the status of the car. Everyday they tell different stories. Sometimes they say your car is ready for delivery and then the next day they have some different story which is completely ambiguous. For e.g today they said the color you chose is very unique so we are trying to ask all showrooms in pakistan if they have the gun metallic colour then we can deliver it to you.
Guys I am sick of it now. Kindly suggest me what to do. I feel so down now due to this everyday torture. Can someone help me with this one.
Thanks
One more thing, if I ask for my money back they say you will get in at least 1 month. I thought if I could get my money back then i CAN buy from a showroom by paying own(ON)..or buy a steermatic or something.
@fuwad
Relax its common for buying new car BTW which car u booked Gli or 2.0D,XX or ALTIS. They simply asks for own for Car Delievery.
Thanks at porsche maker. Its a GLI. I do understand about the delivery thing. But I just hate the false promises. Especially when one day they say that your car is ready and the will deliver it this week and then they say its a very rare colour in Toyota's production so we will try to get it for you from somewhere?? Thats bad ..
Thats y i burst on those points who gave me Time n thn again Story i asked thm give me a time even a month late but after tht no more.
bro stil consider yourself lucky, we got after 3 months, from the day of booking till those 3 months, wow i use to think abhi gear box lagraha hon ga, abhi kamani dalrahae hon gi, abhi engine lagraha hon ga, thank god woh time katam hogaya
Trap the salesman when he says the color is not available. Bluff him by saying gimme any color. But do not pay any "own"!
normal:s
@ Mikz.. Good Idea, I was thinking the same.....
Threaten them. Works sometimes, but works. Its your money, you have the right to get it back! When I asked for mine, they gave my car the next day! Pakistan bruv, welcome!
@ GLI -- HAHA cool man I'll try that too...
another reason to buy second Hand!(Y)
^^...but trusting is a second hand car isnt that easy s it..??
get it in writing that the car was supposed to be delivered within 3 weeks and it is late now,.. then hope they deliver it as late as possible,.. that way they are obliged to give you some money back due to late delivery (it's the law).
Now I think paying own(ON) is a better option. Mehnga roay eik baar sasta roay baar baar.!!!!
@fuwad which corolla did you book? My cousin booked an altis(gun metallic) in the first week of june and got it on the 4th day of booking. You should give your dealer some rocket for sure.
@ bluntknife--How come you got urs in 4 dayss?? Is that really true, well I believe you. Tell you cousin to gimme that magic rocket so that I can use it against toyota sialkot guys...
@fuwadnot mine brother,its my cousins ride and im sure he pulled some strings. If you hadnt already booked it then you could have bought it from him as he is selling it and buying a CL-9.Have they asked you to pay the difference between the new and the old rates?
First they said I must pay them the price difference but then the govt. pulled the tax back. Now the official price is 980k but i would not have to pay the extra 11k. When I asked for my money back they said its gonna take a month so i thought its better to wait for car than for money. Is it possible for you to ask your cousin what he did. Any help will be greatly appreciated...
well,firstly his was an auto altis which i guess takes less time to be delivered anyway and 2ndly he has very close contacts with a political family from gujrat and im sure that would have helped too
