Hi Guys,
I am sudhindra from Bangalore, working in a telecom software company.
I have recently brought contessa classic 1.8GL. Hoping to find more like minded people who still admire this car. basicaly i want to keep this car as in factory condition, so please dont tempt me do something extra ordinary...

Oh, i almost forgot, i am new to car driving and driven just 40kms overall in my life. But, in bikes..no idea..

Cheers
Sudhindra

Nice to know that you have a Contessa.. A couple of months back I have traveled in a Contessa from Mangalore to Surathkal, belonging to a local firm. I really appreciate the road hugging nature of Contessa. It was so stable that, I never experienced that quality in present cars.( Sorry I never travelled in BMW,Merc etc.,)

Welcome aboard Sudhindra. Nice to see another Contessa lover on the forum. They are a rare breed. Do tell us more about the Contee. A review on the car would be great.

Do take time to go through the rules before you proceed further. Have fun.

Wow a contessa , has been long since anyone talking about Contessa. It sure is a good car and i've seen some nicely modded ones in town.

All the best for your stay here and crunch some miles on that classic.

Hey Sudhindra, welcome to the forum! Hope you have a long & interesting stay here. That 40 kms will become 40k kms in the not too distant future, keep driving
