planet_rocker · 30th March 2009, 13:34

@Singhji - yes! it is the same car driven by our friend.

i donot think that the car is "a sheep in a wolf's clothing"

- no hard feelings.

I suspected it is the real macoy but was careful to commented earlier that flared fenders looked good if it was indeed a mod.

@ Rehaan - the car usually comes out late at night - i was lucky to spot it at around 9pm. the pics posted by shuvd were shot at a garage run by Mr. Niaz Ali's (@ hell kuul) ex-tuner (Alok da).

the owner is a full-time rally driver at INRC (now drives rrr cedia) and a member with rally.co.in.
