Yes, it has wireless carplay/auto - no adas features as you mentioned.

Got PPF done on mine within a week of delivery IIRC, https://www.instagram.com/p/C7tJbcEimuH/

Got the mats - front, back, and third row.

[pwuser174103787485]

Thank you for your opinion.

I live in Khi, and traffic here is all over the place - Car's almost done a 1k so after the initial inspection and after Eid will just get PPF done to avoid having the car go In for every small scratch/dent. Also, hope you got 0 depreciation insurance - a bit on the high side but great piece of mind should the need arise.

[pwuser174103787485]

Yes, to wireless CarPlay. Though the wireless charger is relatively miserable, just makes the phone hot and barely adds any battery. Also it has USB only and not USBC - so will have to get a converter etc if you have a new USBC phone/ charging cable.

hope you got 0 depreciation insurance

Can you provide some details of insurers offering such plans?

[pwuser174103787485]

Of course - to tell you about it a little; the insurance is fully comprehensive - meaning that if your car ever gets into an accident you don't end up paying anything out of pocket, and your car doesn't get depreciated in the first year, and the year after as long as you keep buying the zero depreciation insurance. IGI Insurance, TPLP, and Atlas insurance are offering these on the top of my head - I went with IGI. It's 0.4-0.5% more expensive than the normal insurance but the piece of mind helps with it.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks

Zero depreciation during the first year (or first 6 months) is standard across the insurance industry, as is third-party comprehensive motor insurance. What I'm not sure about is zero depreciation throughout the entire life of the vehicle. Maybe @abid110 can enlighten us here?

this concept of zero dep throughout the life of vehicle is almost non existent here in paki for individual customers. some corporate clients do enjoy this privilege but as very special cases.

[mirza.ghalib]

That makes sense. Thanks

paint and body work.. involving labour remains 0% throught life. a painted door will cause a loose of 2-300k in 1 min on new car, so PPF is super important nowadays and save way more than it's cost

[fastian04]

parts depreciation is different and 0% does not even apply to corporate but actual issue is the body work. any repaint will ruin the resale by minimum 2%, just in case someone counts it.

i was referring to parts depreciation. there is no dep on labour and paint jobs. there is a concept of zero dep in corporate special cases. have seen myself

[fastian04]

i in corporate with over 2000 card insured. Parts depreciation is half vs regular... and rates are 1-1.2% max. the actual value of car itself matters on the painted panels. so insuring to relax makes no sense to me.... PPF is better than all insurance parameters....and should be in parallel to regular insurance to cover parts cost.

I will be getting the vehicle delivered in a few days. Which fuel should I use, regular, hi-octane or a mix of both?

[ali.raza.tr]

Two more questions please:

1- How is United Insurance Company's reputation? Is it considered a good one?
Do they process claims without any resistance?
Can the respected members of this forum share their opinion or feedback if they or people within their social circle had dealt with this company before?

2- Where to get genuine Sonax products in Lahore?

Thanks!

I've used United in the past on a couple of vehicles. Dealing with them has been a pain every single time to the point that often the dealership had to make the claim on my behalf.

One time they refused to accept that a side-mirror was broken and instead insisted to repair it. I had to drive the car to their head office on Canal and show it to one of their managers before they approved the replacement. This was in the first year of the car btw.

[bmuqtadir]

Avoid united...

[ali.raza.tr]

I am in the process of getting the vehicle registered.

Can the members guide me what to write in the following two fields of Form F:

1- Class of Vehicle

2- Type of Body

Those who have the registration file in possession, they can check to see what was written in these fields.

Thanks.

[pwuser167550015690]

I recently filled this out for my H6. What I wrote was:

Class of Vehicle: MOTOR CAR
Type of Body: SUV

The guy entering the data into the system at the Excise office corrected any issues himself so you don't need to worry about that. The staff is generally very helpful. The registration card now shows MOTOR CAR as the Type of Body for example.
