Ranjit from Coimbatore

wildsdi5530 · 6th November 2009, 00:58

Greetings from Kovai,
I am an orthopedic surgeon practicing in Coimbatore. My home town is Bangalore. I yesd to love tinkering on my father's Premier Padmini.
My first car was a Maruthi Alto Lxi. I enjoyed driving around in Bangalore and a few short trips.
I got a Honda City ZX Gxi in Sept. '08. Now I do a lot of high speed highway trips between Bangalore, Coimbatore, Chennai and Tirunelveli.
I enjoy driving and love cars.
I joined up in the forum last year itself (as wildsdi) but my membership was not approved. Now finally I managed to get in with a modified nick.
I hope to participate actively in the forum. And hope that my real nick will get approved.

Welcome both you guys from the plains. I am just above here in the hills.

Have a look at the announcement sections and have a fun time here. Also have a look at the team bhp meet section for Coimbatore and send me a PM if you guys come driving by this side. Will offer you a tree to plant.

Cheers,
Benny John

Thanks for the welcome guys.
Often drive to Nilgris. Maybe I'll drop in some day.
And Eyedoc, OMR used to be fun. Nowadays there is no breaks at friendly chai shops. All the highways are speedways now.

Orthopaedic and high speed? Well, in any eventuality, you can treat yourself! Well jokes apart welcome aboard. Enjoy safe driving. And there are quite a lot of great places around where you live. Please do come up with travelogues. All eager.

MX6, Maybe seeing all the accident patients would help me drive safely and responsibly, but not at the cost of time.
