Where was i all this time!

mkh · 21st October 2009, 23:44

Like most of the guys, have been a car fan and enthusiast for a while.
Have never got into the finer details of how machines work but have known the names and the brands etc and have been reading up always on the newest launches and the buzz around cars
What i am wondering is that with such a fantastic site - where was in wandering around so far!
I have been a viewer on the site and finally thought, why not contribute and share my experiences also!
Its great to be a part of the community that is probably THE place to go for any info on wheels in india!
Glad to be a part of this amazing group...

Welcome aboard mkh! Which are the machine(s) you own?

Welcome aboard, I am new to this site too - joined a month back and I felt exactly the same way - "where was I all this time ???"

I thought I was a loner in my passion for cars.
I could just recenly afford a vehicle and I stumbled across this site while trying to review cars to buy. I was looking for performance and moddability but was sorta disappointed with the car offerings in India in the C/C+ segment. Reviews on this site first enlightened me to the fact the there were alternatives to City, Corolla and Linea.
I was inspired to book the Mitsubishi Cedia New Sports and I got to know that the Cedia was available in India only through this site. The showroom is a 5 min drive from my home and I never realised that Mitsubishi was still selling cars in India. I thought Mitsu quit India after Lancer sales fell due to competition from all the other players.

Rest assured, you will spend a lot of enjoyable and enlightening time on these forums. Have fun driving safely and keep posting.

To be honest if it was for me, i would buy the spark, but since my wife also has to drive and she happened to learn on an i-10 and feels the gear shift is simpler, the decision is tending on i-10...
I think the spark deserves support from people like me who know its value...have in fact promoted it to 2 more friends so maybe i will still end up doing my bit
