Default My Linea MJD Emotion Pack Flamingo Red

Finally I decided to start a thread for myself and upload a few snaps. I managed to get squeezing myself to corners in my front garden, where I also park my vehicles.

I put some kind of artificial leather for 8.5K, which I felt pretty good for an artificial one.

I always park inside the gate at home or in office parking. I don't know where I got the scratches. Here are the jobs of an idiot. Good thing is that it is not visible unless one tries hard.

Linea in this color looks best! Congrats man. The car is a beauty. And as one wise man once said "A thing of beauty is a joy for ever". Hope this one is a joy for ever (poetically speaking) in your life.

Congratulation Opendro . Linea looks stunning in flemingo red.

I am sorry for the scratch. It really hurts at least on a new car.

I think that wise man was Keats.
BTW--nice car, Opendro. Looks best in this colour. Flamingo Red of the Linea resembles Paprika Red of the Fiesta.
Please post some more pics of the interiors--esp the dash. I think you'll have a tough time maintaining those white seat covers.

some J has left a big impression on my red palio stile too.

Thanks for the snaps Opendro. Looks beautiful.

Opendro had mentioned that he had got the door mats from a mall in B'lore for 688 Rs. Still not available with dealers.

Reverse parking: Opendro how much did those cost?

Look forward to a full-tank-to-full-tank efficiency update.

Congratulation Opendro

anyways it is a functional accessory so cool

Congrats, great choice of color. I would have hesitated getting that color for the seats just from my past experience. Its too damn hard to keep it clean.

Sad that some wacko's scratched your car!!

I guess at some point you could change the tires to 16 or even 17 cos right now it looks a little small but thats your decision, just a suggestion.
