I just called a dealership in Lahore to book a 1.6. The salesman said that the new booking will open end of this month with delivery late august / early september, and that batch will be the facelift version.
Secondly, I was told that at the time of booking, I need to pay (in cash) registration + extended warranty charges + insurance & tracker. Is this normal? I am not interested in the tracker or extended warranty. Seems like extortion money to me.
