Do or Die

I liked the budget of the car, looks, mileage and servicing and maintenance, also the interior and speed of the car, when I went for bye they were taking care of me and carefully they delivered my car.

Bad experience with skoda

Bad experience withSkoda We liked the car . Ride is good and comfortable . Service is very costly . we had a very bad experience. With ac . Two times serving cost 65000 per one time . When ever there is problem with something whole part has to be replaced.

Wonderful experience

A great driving experience I had with the Jeep Compass. Either off-road or smooth road, you will feel great comfort next to luxury. Smooth drive even on rough stretches. Loaded with a variety of features.
