Datsun redi-GO - Gift from my hubby

My husband was applying for a house loan and was requesting my driving license for address proof.

My four-wheeler driving license is useful only for address proofs and nothing more than that. I eventually poured out my frustration.

 He looked at me, gave his car key and replied, “I am not stopping you from driving my car. Anytime, you can take and plan for a long drive.”

“Are you kidding? Your car is gigantic and scary. I get nervous to drive it”

“It’s must be approximately 4585 mm in length only. It’s no big deal. You can drive”

“You always reply the same. I am asking you a car since long. Almost 5 years, you never even thought about it” I replied in anger and went to prepare breakfast for my kids.

This is the usual conversation with my husband and It always ends in not-so-good-ending. But that day was so special. My husband sent the below text along with a link in what’s app.

“Fun. Freedom. Confidence. The ultimate Urban Cross - Datsun redi-GO - the capability of a crossover with the convenience of a hatchback.” 

I clicked on the link and it navigated to new vehicle  Redi-Go. Though I know very well that my hubby was researching this car for me, I asked for whom the car was. His reply was ultimate.

“Well, it’s for my new girlfriend. Since girlfriend is new, a new car model for her”

Though I know he was just teasing me, when he replies like that I get so possessive. I stopped texting him back.

That Evening he came home with few set of print outs. We browsed the picture of the car in google and he explained about the features of the car. When it comes to car or product, I am not good in judging or researching. But as he explained the performance and as I saw the interior and exterior design, I felt I should go for this car. It actually comes with 2 variant. DATSUN Go and DATSUN Go+. We downloaded the brochure from the website and he explained me its feature.

Fun. Freedom. Confidence.

With this car you can have full freedom, you can go wherever you want with confidence. You have a shift indicator, hence when you are on wrong shift, it gives you a warning or alert. I know you always forget to put petrol on right time, this car comes with fuel indicator. This will let you know the distance to empty the fuel. You always complain that, AC comes only to front seats. This car comes with integrated center AC and ensures that AC is distributed evenly around all the passengers in the rear seats as well. I vote for this car because it comes with an air bag.

For him my safety is first. I thought and smiled.

“What about the mileage and price” This is the only question that I know to ask, when it comes to a car or 2 wheeler.

“It gives around 25 km per litre and price is ₹3,25,726.” He continued, “You can book this car online through snap deal and if we book now we get a free vacation of 3 day and 2 night from package Club Mahindra.

“Oh Really, then I can plan a trip Munnar trip with our new car”

“Yes you can” He replied and we booked a request for a test drive.
