I had the pleasure of taking a test drive of the new 3-series and what a difference over the previous model!. Everything is all good. if i have to describe this car in detail i'll be going on and on. pictured is the trendline model but i'm in love with the sport variant. pics coming up

2012 BMW 3 series sportline variant. it's a toss up between this car and the Volvo C60 for me. just lookit the interior.

so it is a gloriously grey and rainy friday here in Chennai and i needed something to cheer me up and this car did. i just hope the Toyota Etios exhibition race this weekend organized by Toyota Racing Development(TRD) doesn't get washed out.

thank you BW. i was thinking about Bombay an hour back while sitting in my favorite juice shop and staring at an ice cold vanilla icecream shake after an afternooon well spent staring at race going Etios sedans. time to make a trip to Bombay

i drove past the DC showroom earlier this afternoon and this car caught my eye. i remembered seeing it somewhere and then i did. it was at the 2006 New Delhi Auto Show. it was a concept then, now one can order it to drive. this car is the DC Imperator, whatever that means but it is huge and imposing and will scare bus and truck drivers into cowering by the side of the road till you pass, if you buy one, i can guarantee

before i get to the Etios Racing pics, i came across this 1989 Hindustan Motors Contessa at the race track parking lot in excellent shape and loved it instantly. either this car has been well maintained since new or has been through a thorough ground up restoration job. indian motoring heritage for your eyes.

a pair of Hella lamps and this garden variety Ford Fiesta looks cool and aggressive. woof woof
