I'm sure you all had a good laugh! All I can say in my defense is not everyday I see hands with camera sticking out the window and clicking me! That explains my perplexed face.

He sure is one of a kind. No doubt about that.

Sure will wait next time i spot your car at the same place.
By the way, appreciate you taking pains to park your car in that parking lot to drop your kid at the daycare, i have seen many people park the car on the narrow road adjacent to the daycare oblivious of the fact that they are causing a jam!

Sure man, i will also try to spot your ride sometime.
Oh, dont tell me about this , people are least bothered about others and park their car even on the wrong side of the road, creating a mess for people specially those big infy buses and volvos .
I parked my car only the 1st day i went their and came to know what a bad decision was that, so i make sure i park over there.
More than that i was scared no ones hits my car by mistake . while trying to go .


Cheers.

Thanks for meeting up at such short notice guys! It was really nice meeting each and everyone of you and in retrospect the pain in the you know where drive was worth it

I'll try to put up the pictures tonight, but here's a teaser:


@Amit, Abhijit, Balaji, Ketan: there is always next time a.k.a come to Bangalore

Bangalore folks- can you guess whose ride that is?

I shifted to Pune 2 weeks back, thanks to my posting at Infosys Pune. Have spotted loads of teamBHP stickered cars near Phase 2. Although never bothered to take a snap Would love to meet more Phase 2 BHPians!

P.S: Look out for my grey VW Polo with TBHP sticker

I saw a a fake LTD sticker on a santro cab today on DND. Has anyone else spotted a fake team bhp sticker ever?

Time for new sticker designs ??

Yes, even in bangalore team-bhp members have spotted fake LTD stickers and posted it here before. I have spotted at least 4 cars with fake LTD.

btw this was near Agara junction, ORR

Oh! Yes, I am feeling lucky (did I just infringe google stuff)
You were the one in the shiny red A-star with T-BHP ODO sticker on the rear glass? If so, I spotted you just ahead from where you took this snap, near the Agara signal. Could neither note down the number or take a pic, the signal had just then turned green and as usual that junction puts drivers at two thoughts -straight or right-straight

That camera seems to be an OEM on the hawk

Yes yes, very true! God long back had a tie-up with Canon!

A silver colour SX4 parked at Lajpat Nagar around 7:45 PM today with LTD sticker on bumper RHS. Nobody was in the car when I drove past it.

Oh no! You are in the Canon camp !! I thought you were a Nikonian

Nevertheless a good capture. For a moment I thought that it was captured in the reverse camera of your car and I was wondering since when Canon started manufacturing head units and car reverse systems. Had me fooled for a few moments

Actually I'm on my way to Nashik as I post; stopped for quick breakfast on the way. Will not be returning to Pune on this trip.

Will be passing through Hyderabad on the way to Tirupathi (I think); let's see if anyone shows up on the radar
