Auto expo is once in 2 years - it happend in jan 2008. so next would be sometime in 2010 i guess

can some delhi members comment on whether the AUTO MALL 2009 is worth a visit ? has anyone been to this show before ?

iraghava · 8th January 2009, 16:47

No, it is not a substitute for the Auto Expo.

Ok. I got no idea about this. Worth going?
Also i cant see Fiat's name in the list.

I guess I went it some year back, it just time pass nothing else. All accessories vendors specially Two wheelers will be there, including Battery operated Scooter will find major space in this. And some Bike Modifier specially into Choopers will find some space too. At last you will find classics on display. Don't remember If I saw something else too. No way close to Auto Expo.

Maybe this could be a good venue to have a NCR meet..

meet gurus - please jump into the fray and help in planning out something

if there are decent exhibits I am planning to come on Sunday - 11th

abhinav.gupta88 · 8th January 2009, 23:20

I'm planning to pay up a visit too.
Not sure when but maybe after the JBL Lounge launch.
Not sure.

Lets hope its good.
though i dont think it will be as good as the Auto Expo.

Guys - i think I might skip this...dont have fuel to make the trip to Delhi !

SLK · 11th January 2009, 00:50

No reports so far!!!

haven't heard good things about it.... will check it out tomorrow myself.

From what i can gather, there won't be any pre-launch car on display. Only recently launched and/or special versions, like Hyundai i20, Scorpio Hybrid and so on.

SLK · 11th January 2009, 22:22

I went there!
It was too small, there was nothing new or interesting.

It was good to look at i20 closely and X6 too.

Nothing much to talk about other than that.

We instead went and saw the adjoining photofair, which was better off, at least some new things! Did you know samsung had a SLR range!
