What a picture Arun! The first one rocks! 331 has the perfect glow for her birthday. You painstakingly supervised its water service for 4 hours in the hot sun. A perfect gift to it.

On the contrary, I just realised today morning(when I had gone to insurance office for its renewal and also the new 118NE's insurance renewal) that my S1's birthday too is today. 14th March 1996. I couldnt believe that it was such a co-incidence. Our first anniversary, S1 and 331's birthday. I am already in a festive mood. I couldnt give my S1 a treat like Arun gave to the 331. I am a bit sick since a week and only could manage a wash by myself.

Great pic of 331 Arun bhai. The first one almost qualifies being on cover page of a magazine . Great shot sir.
Karthik your S1 is looking very perfect. Even the wheels are properly balanced and proportionate to the wheel arch. Hope that you get well soon. BTW congrats for your car completing 14 yrs. Even my S1 will be completing its 15th b'day this August and i am trying hard to gift her its originality.

Yeah Sagar... As Karthik always says, Fiats are very photogenic! The Palace in the background is Jaymahal Palace.! We plan to do our next meet there. Its has 26acres of lush greenery. The palace is just behind my house and my locality name too is Jaymahal.

Karthik's pics were taken by his friend in a recent trip. His is a no-nonsense car. Looks very NEAT.

It was a pleasant coincidence to realize that both these cars' birthday was on the same day!

Good to see Karthik's (funkykar) car in the lead. Normally its the CAP (sujith's fiat) which leads almost every time. Waiting impatiently for the pics. Whats that red building at the back. Is it the central library.

Sujith's CAP leads in all meets as when all cars start for the rally, we need a good lead driver who can manage so many cars behind him.. And Sujith decides the Rally route always.. So we all simply follow him.

Sujith just called me and said that his net is not working.! Sad! Anyways I have told him to go to a cyber cafe and upload the pics.

Hey Arun,

It is picture perfect. Our 4 Fiats and the Central Library. Amazing shot this.

When it comes to any rally, Sujith is the main logistics guy and he and his car lead the tribe with pride. He knows his role to perfection. And the cap feels the rythm in Suji and acts accordingly. Suji is simply irreplaceable!!

In the melee, we have kind of forgot how yummy the Walnut cake was. It was mouth watering. It was so tasty that no one wanted to paint each others face with the cake and preferred eating it.

Sujith made us wait minutes together at the Central Library area to get the right shot. Now he is holding the pics with a busted internet like awaiting for a climax of a mega serial. Suji, do whatever it takes and get the pics online by morning dude.

My S1 is headed for the beauty parlor early morning. It would receive the same treatment that 331 received today. Also, it so happens that the birthday for my new Maroon 118 NE (3410) is 13/03/1992
