Sure thing.

Going through the Dealership-IMC booking route was getting the Revo delivered in February, when booked in November (last week). However, if one is going through Meezan Ijarah, the delivery is prioritised since MBL has an agreement with IMC for prioritised deliveries on full payment at day one of booking, in this case, it is 30 days.
Regarding quality comparison between PKDM and imported models, I had the opportunity to personally observe and compare the exterior and interior build quality of Revo, as stated in post #21 above. Other than the difference in features, there is a clear difference in build quality of both with respect to the following:
1) Paint quality - reflection on the paint shows grains (uneven reflection edges) in PKDM while these are smooth like that in a mirror, in the imported model.
2) Interior plastics are of better quality, however, IMC "has" improved considerably in plastics quality in comparison to their previous PKDM Vigo.
3) Leather quality, stitching design & quality and leather fitting. Almost at par with the imported on all three counts.
4) Braking, driving experience ? Not in a position to comment on that.
I understand that the difference between top of the line model of PKDM (42 lacs) and Imported (60 lacs), ranges between 17 to 20 lacs. After having sat in and compared both the PKDM and Imported Revo models, it is my personal opinion, that the difference certainly does not justify dishing out additional Rs. 17 to 20 lacs for the imported. There's also the aspect of having no technical support (mechanical) for the newly introduced 2.8L imported revo engine here in Pakistan, but that's another discussion.

Thanks for sharing Marks' link. It does look nice and purposeful, however, can you or anyone share about durability and build quality aspects of these canopies produced by Marks? I'll keep looking around for the sliding one as it'll be useful for me instead of the lifting lid.
