They must have it in your city and number of sales ain't that much that you have to face Que problems at centers... as far as spares are concerned outside the city,,, you might get a hard luck in a jungle at midnight while having a Maruti vehicle... So, why worry if you have already Booked ! :D

Spare parts and ASS you should not face any problem. Renault is not big in India, yes. But if you are in a big city, there wont be any problem. It is a solid European car anyway. And amazing style.

@Ashwani and BabyChen Thank you your inputs :D I was told by Renault guys that...spare parts are 40% cheaper than Skoda...Not sure though.

Also, i think with Pulse launch and Duster coming, they are sure to beef up their ASS sooner than later.

Fluence is a good car. Enjoy it. Renault has aggressive expansion plans for India. From the present 40 odd dealers it plans to reach 100 by end 2012. The company expects big volumes from the Duster and hopes to have about 70 dealers and service centers in place by the time of its launch this summer, which should make it easier to access a service station to service the Fluence.

@Roshun A bit relieved now :) After I've booked the car many of my friends are saying about its turbo lag and rubber band effect...I can't help it but...its sad to hear that stuff :p

Got the Car..:) Drove 1500Kms. I am getting mileage around 15.5 km/l. And yes..there is little turbo lag in 2nd gear till 2000 rpm..once it crosses that mark..it is fun to drive.

Go to the top left on your CarToq page. Click on your name, you'll get your profile page. In that you'll see "Cars I own", with an add button. Add Fluence diesel, and then you'll see it appear on the bottom right hand of the page. After you add Fluence you'll get a "Review this car" tab on the right bottom of the page. Click on that and just fill in the fields / write your review. Hope it's not too confusing - we're making a few more improvements soon.
