Hello Everybody

Congrats to all moderators for maintaining this wonderful site. Used to read posts on a daily basis for the last six months. however was never a member until today i finally made up my mind to become one among you.

Im basically a Naval Architect from Cochin, live in Dubai, visits India every year once or twice, an automobile lover, not a speed freak though..

Owns a Pearl silver baleno (2004 July model) in India, and a Green Mitsubishi Galant here in Dubai

Thanx in advance and hope to have a nice time with you guys

Welcome aboard mate, enjoy your stay...

I think you will have lot of company from all those Baleno fans of our forum, and from Steeroid, who also shuttles between Dubai, Cochin and Bangalore...

welcome to the family dude...
you'll get varied opinions on all your queries on anything that has four wheels (not in the broadest sense) ... and you even get true facts (only) not just emotional stuff (which by the way is pretty good here coz every body loves their cars)...
enjoy your stay in the team!!!

Hey dude

Welcome to TBHP and good to find another DXB-COK wanderer like me! Get in touch - I'm reachable on 5519657. I hope you're a factory-issue mallu, and not a customized/limited-edition one (i.e., teetotallar).

Are you ex-SNAS/Shippie from CUSAT? Catch up!

Catamaran · 12th September 2005, 17:50

Thanks every one for welcoming me aboard..actually i have been following Team Bhp for long time and is familiar with all members...

Hi sandeep,
I became a regular viewer of this site when i found that there are a lot of baleno lovers here. I used to read reports from Samurai, iceman and all with great interest. Infact when i bought my baleno everybody including my family members were against it. but somehow i loved this car. My baleno has run only 8000kms upto now (my two vacations) as otherwise my car is almost sleeping
And Steeroid iam a typical stock mallu and of course not a limited edition one with golden badging....

revtech · 12th September 2005, 22:36

Good to hear that, shippie. Time to catch up with some Cusat talk...if you see a black Smart Cabrio zip by, flag it down because that would be me. Its the ONLY Brabus Cabrio model in DXB, so you cant go wrong.
