![]() The speed attained is yummy. I did 180 in the expressway! I'll reserve my replies to your detailed TL. Your's TL and Noop's Bangalore TL would come in handy for my future roadtrip! | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Wonderful pics, Ninja. Loved the one of the haunting Noor Mahal at midnight! And thanks for the tip of seatbelt fastening while getting a nap in the backseat LOL! ![]() Going over to your travelogue right now to check it out. EDIT - The initial pics look delicious and yummy! Yikes, that dent looks ugly. Sorry to hear, bud. Turned a bit too close to another parked vehicle or something? Waiting for you to finish the travelogue. Will come back later to complete it.

As for the vibration(s), haven't really experienced anything of that sort. But the issue mentioned by Ricky might/could be there in my car - I have to try out another Vento to figure out the same. Quote:
But your point is valid, let me try to finish it during this week. ![]() | ||

As for the in reality, the dent doesn't look so bad unless one looks for it. Anyway the car has been sent to the workshop, and most of it has been repaired; I should be getting it by tomorrow. Hopefully, the entire thread (or most of it) should be done by this weekend. Update : We enjoyed driving the car so much on the GQ, that we had to do it again. And probably we might - got to attend an friend's engagement in Ahmedabad later this month. Have booked bus tickets for the same, but now we are thinking - why not the road? It'll probably take us less time & it'll be cheaper too! ![]() Last edited by ninjatalli : 7th November 2011 at 15:01. | |

![]() But for some reason, I am not able to access the thread. Is it still in the Assembly line? Quote:

![]() BTW , with all these travel of yours , noops and nilesh - I have also decided to break loose . Starting off with a 500 km (total) trip to shirdi this week , then a Mumbai-Goa- Mumbai between the 25th - 27th Nov . We have one offsite planned , everyone else is flying and most think that I have lost my mind to drive . Cannot let go the chance of a NH4 cruise ![]() | |

Don't try to put the blame on me, Noops or Nilesh - it's the new tires, innit? ![]() Jokes apart, Mumbai - Goa - Mumbai : Please do one side on NH17. It's 100% worth it, even if parts of the highway are undergoing any widening or repairs. | |

Previous week had gone too Kashid for a drive with family through the old Goa road. It was one heck of a driving experience, so much traffic and ongoing work and while returning it once seemed am I going to reach Vashi the same day with the amount of traffic jam that was there. A total of 250 kms covered that day. So preferably use the Mumbai-Pune expressway that the silly old Goa road. Do post the travelogue of your Mumbai-Goa. | |

![]() NH17 actually is much more scenic , have done the route 4-5 times. With road repairs it becomes torrid not only because of slow traffic but also because of loose tar flying around which sticks to the paint . The last time I did it in May 2011 , I had to get the car undergo an expensive polish . NH4 scenery is bit boring like your GQ | |

| ![]() Ninja, what have you done about the dent? Have you gotten rid of it? And if so, how? My Laura has developed a similar scratch, though not that large. Its just a fine line, but you know how they hurt! Sourav: You've changed the tyres already? Sorry, seemed to have missed that. What did you go in for? |
