Hi guys,
There was a Book Exhibition in my office yesterday. Seen the Eicher City map book for Mumbai. Costs around 250 bucks. A very detailed map including lanes, building names, restaurants (not all) etc etc. Very useful for someone who doesnt know the roads very well. It'll also help you against auto/cab guys who would take you for long drives.

Maps are also available for Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai etc.

The book is also on sale on Indiatimes : Eicher City Map Mumbai : INR 250.



P.S : It might even help us in our Supercar huntings. What say? *

In India especially one does`nt need a mep.Just roll down the glass and ask any1.
But it`ll be useful for the NRIs and Phirangs who usually get fooled around by every1 in India.
Feel really bad for them.

I have another detailed map book like this.... made by Mappls or something like that.

Its great....but the only problem is that is only uses the &quot;offiicial/ new&quot; name for all the roads......... i dont even know what the official name of the road i live on is!!! so that gets pretty irritating!
What about this one?

cya

I'm using an Eicher roadmap for Delhi........got it 2 years back when I came here, and it's still on my wall. Really detailed stuff. Waitin to get mah hands on the citymap soon

PS: try the Outlook Traveller Getaways too. I got my &quot;52 Weekend breaks from Delhi&quot; for around 200 quid. Was really helpful when makin my trips.
