He dismissed Kempegowda because of his appearance, the farmer and his friends allege.An argument broke out and Kempegowda dared the salesman to arrange the delivery of an SUV the same day if he brought the money within an hour.He returned with cash. The stunned sales executive, predictably, could not manage instant delivery – the waitlist is usually long. It would not take less than four days to deliver his car.Incensed, Kempegowda and his friends demanded an apology and more heated words were exchanged, until the police stepped in and broke up the fight.The sales executive finally apologised to Kempegowda. “I don’t want to buy a car from your showroom,” the farmer said, walking off with his Rs 10 lakh.
