Welcome aboard param. Congrats on booking your beast , i guess that would be the best possession in your garage.

There is a thread here dedicated to all Safari owners . i'm sure you'll have fun there.

Hi Param Welcome to T-bhp,

Nice Intro and congrats on your new Safari, Please post the pics and Initial Drive report.
Also look at Pre Delivery Inspection before taking delivery of the beast.

Welcome aboard Param.

Your garage seems to have a good combination of comfort and sportiness. The Optra for daily comfort and the Civic for the weekend drives. Congratulations on your Safari. There are many Safari owners on the forum who you can touch base with and an additional review is always welcome. Also do share your road trip experiences in the Travelogues section but before that, take a stop at the Board Rules to understand the working of the forum better.

Drive Safe

Thanks harish, bhargava, ravi and dippy.

I've downloaded the PDI checklist and will carry it along when I go to take the delivery.
I'll definitely put up some pictures after I get delivery of the Safari. I'll also try and share as much information about my buying and initial experience as I can. Arrgghh, its so hard waiting for the delivery of a new vehicle.
I'm going to take some time out and write about my trip to Spiti in 2007 next.

Thanks again everybody for the warm welcome!
