Yes, it's the same place. It is very close to my work. I work in Hi-Tech city, second phase

[aadix]

be carefull cops are fining u rs 500, if u park on that slope in the nights it seems it to curb the no of people parking their cars their and drinking heavily
this in only during the nights not during the day time

[satish_appasani]

I never hang around that place. We went there only for the shoot.

**Gnnnnnnnhhhhh!**

(That's me gritting my teeth to avoid letting out uncontrollable hoops of awe, envy and whathaveyou at the sight of your new acquisition.)

Mucho congratulations, Satish. Don't mind if I do keep peppering you with questions since my own acquisition of a Palio seems tantalisingly around the corner. Would like to pick your brain on how to haggle and get the mostest...

Do keep the post-ownership stuff coming!

And here's a shout-out from another roots-in-Rajahmundry guy.

nice pics satish..im on my way to buy a 1.9D in a couple of months..could also go in for a palio sport nv..its either a silver or red..but some thing tells me that my mind's made..what do you think of the new palio redesigned in brazil?

[satish_appasani]

The new Brazilian Palio looks great.
New Fiat Palio
The car looks more angular than the current Palio especially in the rear. The head lights look more practical. The grill on the bumper looks awsome. But the most noted change is Interiors. It is a typical european.
I am unsure how soon we will get this car in India. With the current sales figures in India, I don't think Fiat will replace their body stamping dies. The new Interiors may never come to India. We can expect this car to come in late 2005 if the sales figures of the current car are promising.
