Nice review Sid.

This is one car which refuses to die. I'm pretty sure that if HM would have let this car evolve into a good design, the car would definitely have done well and give a good competition to the Tata Indigo.

Some design changes which they could incorporate into the car :

Headlight / Tail-light integrated into the body panels rather than sticking out.
Sloping bonnet and boot to give it a more aerodynamic look.

In the late 90's DC had sketched a design for the Ambassador which had appeared in Auto India. The design was too good and HM should have taken some cues from that car.
