Hello Fellow CarHolics! - Team-BHP

Hello to one and all,

Just joined the forum... I've been browsing through some threads and find the information quite helpful.

Having moved to India recently, I had a tough time finding a car that met my needs without ripping me off. Tips provided by this site + others came in handy when I finally had to decide on my dream car.

I am now the proud owner of a Red MITSUBISHI Cedia Sports.. it is definately a head turner. In terms of performance, it has not disappointed me. It picks up speed like crazy... and the feeling of leaving all other cars behind is a feeling unmatched. My favourite feature is the brakes.. in no time, I can halt the car from a crusing speed of 100kms. The seating comfort is great, and getting 5 people in is not a squeeze like some other cars in its class. And mileage is great.. I am averaging 11kms; a good 5kms of my daily commute is done on the first gear, thanks to the BLR traffic patterns so this is good.

Besides being a marketing specialist in the aviation industry, I am an avid hiker, skiier and crazy traveller!

Cars have always been my passion.. I've driven an Omni, Maruti 800, Zen, Honda CR-V, Honda Pilot, Volvo S40 / S60, Merc C series, Pontiac Grand AM / Grand Prix... my all time favourite mobile to zip around in.. is the undisputed Grand AM.. what a car! Though it has now been re-christened as the G6 (so I think)...

I am now evaluating my options for a second car... should it be the Fabia or Swift?? Any tips, eh!

Cheers from a KulCEDIAlover.

Welcome ! You'll soon find (if you haven't already) that you are in familiar company (apart from the aviation part). But what do you sell ?

And good choice with the Cedia.

Welcome to the World of Cedizens...!!!
Sure you are enjoying your sporty Cedia... And you will find more Cedizens here...
Yes, I too have driven all kind of cars, starting from teenee Minee Toyota TERCEL, all the way to Ford's Grand Marquis, and I agree with you, the best part of this car is the BRAKES... And that gives you confidence to accelerate in a flash, 'leaving all other cars behind'... Sure I am one more Cedizen enjoying the same thrill with you...
Welcome again....
