Hello Guys and Gals

Hello Everyone.

Tell you the truth I was really surprised to see a board with indian automobiles which looks really professional. I was a car enthusiast for ever since I can remember. My name is Sanish. I currently live in USA. But when I was in India, I used to read the available car magazines religiously. Cand and Bike, Auto India Etc. DC designs used to be the most modern looking automobiles back in the day. Man I am glad the wayy things changed over there. I see someone posting pictures of his GTR in his driveway, the same day I read about the car first drive report in Road & Track magazine here. I am happy to be a part of this community.

Thanks everyone !!

Thanks rev_hard. Currently I drive a ML430 and CLS55 AMG. We are selling the CLS pretty soon. I also have Kawazaki ZX-14. My wife drives a R320 CDI.

Welcome to Team-BHP, Sanman. Yes, the Indian automotive scene has evolved in the last 10 years and can particularly hit someone who has been away for a while. Neat garage you got there. Benz lover wot? What do you have planned to take the CLS' place?

Do also visit our board rules section to get familiar with the forum policies.

Welcome, Sanish.

India has moved away from the days when DC Designs used to be the most modern looking automobiles around. Sadly, DC does not seem to have moved with the times.

Nice garage - make yourself at home here!

Welcome to tbhp, SanMan.

Are you by any chance from Mallu-land ? Just a wild guess, given your name.

Yes .. I am from Mallu-land.
And R320 is supposed to be the replacement. it will be a downsizing - Family way and 2 great danes make CLS impractical. But I am holding on now thats spring is here.

Welcome aboard,Sanish!
Good to see another mallu on the forum,especially one from the US.
And a biker at that,makes it even better. (just got myself a Suzuki SV650S,and thats when life in the fast lane began to look better).

Do post pics of your cars, bike & the Danes.

Enjoy!
