| Hello to Team-BHP Hi All, After shying away from introducing myself (or being active in T-BHP )after being a member since Feb 2009 and spending atleast 2-3 hours reading through threads/posts (99% of the time spent on 4x4 and off-roading forum) I thought of giving it a go by introducing myself. I am 29 years old,and living in bangalore. From child hood I was fond of the RE bullets and Jeeps (Not knowing much about the technicalities though). My first dream of owning a bullet came true during my engg days after I sold of my brand new Yamaha RX135 5-speed (courtesy - My dad (he would not buy me a bullet)) for a 1989 old RE 350 (My dad cam to know about it after 6 months only since I studied away from home  )My second dream of owning a Jeep came true after completing my studies and started working. This time I sold of my Palio (courtesy - Dad; again) for a 2000 Model Mahindra Classic (aquired 3 years back; Not in the best condition - mechanically/lookwise). I was not aware much about off-roading or 4WD (other than 2 differentials, 2 small gear levers next to the main one etc; not that I know much even now ).But being a regular reader of T-BHP 4x4 forum I think I am atleast past the kinder garten phase. Though I sold of my bullet I have the Classic still with me (after being 2 years out of India). It lacks a 4WD and the engine is not the stock Peugeot one. Apart from the I also have a Tata Safari 2.2 (Courtesy - Myself). Thanks for reading through . Thanks to T-BHP and the mods. Wish you all a happy new year, JJ PS - I would have put in more smilies but I guess 2 is the limit and I don't want any infractions in my first post itself (Smile) |

Welcome to Team-BHP. We would love to hear stories about your Classic and Safari. We all come to this forum as illiterates (Not all, but most of us) and in a few months down-the-line we all start understanding and experiencing a weird language - Language of the Machines. All the best. | |
