    I am planning to rent a car using ZoomCar during my trip to Pune next week (we will be visiting Panchgani/Lonavala).

    So any red flags i should be worried about? I heard the roads are decent and we could just follow the Maps. Also any one has experience with Zoomcars? Do you provide the same model of the car that is shown in the picture?

    For Ex, Honda City, i see it is the current iteration but will that be the case or they can rent out the older version as well?

     

    Thanks in advance

    Zoomcar has 100kmph speed limit. There are fines if you cross the limit 1/2/3 times. The fine increases with instances. It's a good rule but sometimes gets in the way when road is too good. Have used it once and will again. Zoomcar is a good option if u need bigger car for specific reason. I had taken xuv500 w6 and it was in good condition. But Panchgani is short distance from Mumbai. Goa Jao zoomcar leke. Roads are superb.

    Abarth is a power house, it is 1.4 and it's 145 bhp phew.. Would hav loved to pick it up, but it is manual. Plus the GC is like real low.

    Polo GT TSI is a hoot, the only reason I ended up buying vento. With the remap vento feels a little more better to drive the the GT, even though it is heavier.

    Yah remaps ftw

    Your vento is Tsi?

    Engine run in period, like for first 800 kms it should be revved more than 4k and next 400 km it should not be revved more than 6k.

    This was the run in on 250r.

    Oh! Break-in. Thats the word mentioned in manual. :P

    First 800. Not more than 4000rpm

    Next 800. Not more than 6000rpm

    First service at 1000.

     

    Following it.

    Got alpinestars bionic back protector yesterday. Felt tremendous confidence boost in sunday morn run.

    Boots are past customs. Should get them mid week.
