Far from it Sir, this is the kind of stuff I deeply enjoy reading and am sure many others at TBHP would too. Please don't hesitate to share your experiences, it only adds to the whole experience of making a visit to this site both enjoyable and a learning experience

In fact I have requested another gentleman Mr. Manvendra Singh who has had a most spectacular history of exposure to some of the finest automobiles India has seen to visit TBHP and possibly add to the site. He has already come out with an exhaustive account of The Automobiles of the Maharajahs by way of a book and I have no doubt, should he desire too, will be of immense help in identifying cars and relating lovely stories on his experiences. It has always been a deep pleasure for me personally to meet him and spend whatever little time I could and I hope through this forum he will be able to inspire many others like me to carry on in this wonderful passion for automobiles of yesteryear.

Chances are many a wonderful story has already gone into a grave untold and its such a pity that a lot in India has remained unrecorded. Documenting history is one thing I always appreciated the British for and hopefully we can do our little bit toward the same

Thanks once again for sharing
