@askhokhar......
Cmon...sattar Bhai.....You are doing wonderful DIY......end results would be marvelous....
INSHALLAH......
Very true that BMW is BMW.....Nothing else can match it.......
Corolla's we have are fine...but.....:)....
BMW lay to lain....."maintenance" say dar lagta hai...

askhokhar (askhokhar) 2011-04-21 07:15:40 +0500 #963

Sir nothing to worry about

as the saying goes ... "Sar salamat rahay, jutiyaan bariaan" ...

About maintenance ... yes .. maintenance cost of BMW is far higher than a Corolla ... but who cares, when it is a BMW ...

BTW ... I have my eyes set on a BMW 740 ... yes. real BMW with four tyres, not with two legs .... lets see...!!! My mind tells me to stay away, but the heart ... it is attracted like a magnet to that beauty(H)

Rehman Bhai .. you are not BMW guy ...

Your crush for convertibles reminds me of a Baba ji from Gulberg .. He used to drive around in a red convertible ... I am sure he must not be alive by now ... He used to dress up like college boys ... If you have been living in that area for a long time, then surely you must have seen him ...

I did not say you are "Baba Ji" .. you are 25!!!

askhokhar (askhokhar) 2011-04-21 12:15:10 +0500 #970

In one of the threads ... I could actually feel your heart jumping up and down .... the mustang convertible

spitfire (spitfire) 2011-04-21 12:36:21 +0500 #971

Lets go ahead......
As I told earlier...At some places....River Kunhar accompanies road ...like this.....

spitfire (spitfire) 2011-04-21 12:48:19 +0500 #972

Ji Sattar Bhai....I live almost in that area......
The only famous BABA of Gulberg was Major general Shahzada Jalil....and the car he owned was a triumph spitfire MK3..... it was white...American specs left hand drive......
I tried a lot to buy that car...no success.....the baba Ji died and that car was given to his grand son who converted it into red...but garaged most of the time....then changed hands and given to his nephews.....although his widow tried to give that car to me ...but the nephews never returned the car back to her...which was taken just for a ride.....and she died..
I contacted the guys to get that car....but they neither sell nor restore....
ALHAMDOLILLAH......I got two spitfires...in pristine condition......But if I could...I 'll buy that too.......
Mustangs convertible is very desirable car as you know.....I almost had a deal of one in Karachi.....but on seeing it physically changed my mind....
Mustangs....welcome any day.....:D....
BMW is another class......for nice open air motoring..in style/elegance and comfort....
BTW ...thanks for considering me 25....

Will Zahid accompany you when you go for purchasing a Bimmer?

spitfire (spitfire) 2011-04-21 13:10:20 +0500 #977

A beautiful and scenic spot here.....River Kunhar is almost at the level of the road.....with some fantastic views......
So......Brakes applied....:D...How I could pass this without stopping and enjoying the mesmerizing surroundings....(H)

spitfire (spitfire) 2011-04-21 13:18:24 +0500 #978
