LPG, CNG is not my kinda thing. also, the best thing about this car is the exhaust sound this car makes. i am not urging you to buy this car. i know you won't. but i just wanted to tell you that this car is not as bad as it is made out to be. |
Point taken, that is what my friend also is saying. He chose to keep it than selling it due to that and sentimental reasons. But since it can possibly cause more hassles than stisfaction, I thought I will follow other's lead here. But thanks still. I will atleast take a TD
PS: BTW, it is offered to me free of cost (I mentioned it in the first post).
