Ah! The good old 800, about time someone started a thread to this legend which put india on wheels(after the ancient ambys and fiats).most of us learnt to drive in one, it was, and still is the first car for most people, and created a motoring revolution in india. has anybody noticed that the car is nearing its 25th birthday soon?but, Once the more modern cars arrived, the ss80 which was once the 'aspirational' car for most indians was sidelined. But now slowly, they seem to be making their reappearance slowly!
Edmund's car is proof for the renewed interest to there little beauties.
guys, pls come forward with your stories and experiences about this little car!
p.s: Ajay, u forgot one difference between the deluxe and standard. The deluxe model had 3 point seatbelts.K
