This was an email floating around for the last few days.
Amazing pics.. makes me Proud of being an Indian .
Cheers
Great collection. Thanks for sharing!
Couldn't have been a more fitting time to walk down the memory lane. From the biggest four wheelers sold in the country to the smallest, Tata's scale of achievement is mega! And come to think of it, Tata Motors is just one part of the Tata Group.
Can't wait to drive the Nano (with pride)!
Great Pictorial
Would Love To See More Pictures Of The First Lp Trucks Made By Tata And Also The Erstwhile 1210d Series.
Awesome work, Mr.Bangalore. It really charts the entire journey for the Tata Motors team. From trucks to cars, they are really blazing the way ahead. IF the launch of the Nano was any indication, they are really going to go places in the future.
Sensible vehicles at reasonable prices and suitable for Indian conditions. Thats Tata vehicles. Now all they need to do is focus on refining their vehicles and improving their after sales and service levels.
But looks like they are on the right track.
Under all the Hoopla bout Nano, The car which is still not that much in the news but still can affect the market is Indigo CS.
Thanks to the tax laws in India this car will be able to save some precious thousands for the customer.
IMHO the Notchback design is better looking than ever (reminds me of the Viva)
This car will surely make it into the pages of history.
Now that Tata is planning to play big.
Lets hope they improvise on quality and reliability fronts.
If that happens man Indian markets will surely rock.
