Stuck with a discontinued car model and clueless on what to do with it? Fret not. We brought in the car experts to weigh in on how to deal with a discontinued model. Base your decision on these factors…

Happened to glance through this article today morning and noticed that it went something like this- "...., says Rush."

So I went back and read the full article and sure enough it was GTO and Team-BHP!

Nice helpful article too.

Great . Have a question though , do they have to take permission (from GTO) before quoting like that on a newspaper or can they pull-it off our website and quote it on theirs?

For such articles, the journalist approaches me with a specific set of questions. If I can add value to it, I reply back with detailed answers (in typical Team-BHP style). I help out wherever I can. However, if someone approaches me for a comment on the motorcycle market, I politely decline due to lack of expertise in 2-wheelers. But anything on cars is always .

Thank you GTO.
The part in bold, modesty at its best.
