I have been a regular visitor of team-bhp site. I only visit a few websites to read news and do not spend too much time on surfing. But, team-Bhp site changed all that. It is like an addiction. (I have to view this site everyday). I have been visiting this site for the last three months. I am not a regular member of any on-line forums/groups. Finally I decided to become a member of Team-Bhp.

I came to know about this site (Google search) while I was doing research to buy a SUV/MUV. I almost finalised on Innova, I got a chance to study Steer’s review on Safari. I told my wife that I was including Safari also in the list and she surprised me by saying that it is her dream vehicle. I thought I knew my wife well enough and she would be happy driving a Santro or M 800, but ….

I am kind of a guy who does a lot of research before selecting, (not at all impulsive kind). The only one occasion when I did not do research was while selecting my partner. I read all the posts and threads on Safari. 2.2 vs 3.0. It was fun going through all the posts, although. I spent the entire weekend reading all that stuff. We were all so involved that now even my youngest daughter (3 yrs) knows what a Safari is. She is the one who is waiting eagerly and announcing it to everyone that her dad is going to buy a Safari.

My wife and I like driving holidays. I think my kids also enjoy it. Any way they do not have a choice. I have been on many long drives. Longest being Pune –Belgaum - Karwar – Sagar – Bangalore – Kadapa – Bellary – Shimoga – Hubli – Pune in one week.(around 2500 KMs)
My first car was Toyota Celica 1986 Model in US. I did long drives in US in many cars. All my long drives in India have been in my Indica. I trust the TATA brand as their vehicles are VFM. I do not expect Honda or Toyota finish and I am prepared for niggling problems.

This forum is excellent and gives lot of information. I am Looking forward to having a great drive ahead.
