Drive smoother, but interier and first hand experiance is not good

Exterior : Good Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Good features, space and comfort.  Indica vista Reached equal to ford comfort.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox:

1.  Engine is smoother.

2. Performance is good.

3. Gear box Drivetech advertisement is not visible in the real perfromance of the gearbox.  It is not at all smoother.  I used Ford escort, which has good gear box in terms of shifting.  Indica vista gear box shifting is almost disappointing.  Feel unhappy with the gearbox.

Ride Quality & Handling Riding quality is good because of the engine.  But gear shift makes the drive harder. With Reverse gear and applying break. sound like rolling a drum is coming. FInish of the vehnical is not upto the mark of other indian car makers.  Espicially window glass side rubbers, windscreen sorounded rubbers, i am able to see a lot of gap, which allows a lot of dust to settle inside.  Airconditurion is moderate.  Paint quality is also modarate.

Final Words I purchased aura plus Quadrajet car Aug.2010. The car looks good except, source from vibration from driver side (can hear from cabin not from outside), viper blade holding metal part has rust, while taking reverse a sound like rolling drum is coming. I yet to reach dealer. If any of you already had similar problem and rectified, please let me know the cause. It will help me.

Areas of improvement

1.  Build quality

2.  gear box shifting smoothness.

3.  At least the car should be rust free while delivering to the customer.

4.  Make the offers from Tata to be very clear.  I am not happy with the offer being said by the TATA and is given by the dealer.
