| BHPian  | Admission granted.... Hi all, Almost about a year after being a mere spectator on Team-BHP, I finally got myself to write that critical "Why Team BHP?" statement. Long story short, I guess I convinced someone on the second attempt, but not after having left my choicest feedback after the first! Undoubtedly it feels great (and privileged) to be in. Although a doctor by profession, I have always been fascinated by machines; more so as to "how they work" and "whats inside"... 25 years ago as a kid, I still remember having taken apart my new imported remote controlled car even before our folks had finished unloading their suitcases at home! Being a surgeon, I now professionally take apart people, but thats another story.  Maybe thats why I feel reluctant to "upgrade" and am still using my Kinetic Honda DX (1993, 70K km) and Zen LX type 1 (2001, 120K km) with both my hassle free babies going great guns even today. Had a great reliable Fiat Punto 1.2 8V in the U.K. for a year and thats the only possession thats not made it back to India, thanks to import issues. With India being something of a "rejuvenator" of the sinking global auto industry, I really do hope that we, as the customers, finally get to be the king when it comes to our rides.  I guess thats enough lecturing for now; its time to drive...with care and respect. Cheers. |

Speaking of traffic rules, I wonder if there officially is a "pedestrain code" in the MV act; its not always fair to put the blame on someone who has a bigger mode of transport! | |
