Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() A first gen Hyundai Accent - probably one of the very few imported by HMIL before the launch of the Hyundai Accent in India. ![]() |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() This is how the CL55 AMG (Pic : Me and the CL55 AMG.) looked 13 years ago when it was just imported. ![]() And this is how it looks now (not sure how old this pic is though). Seems to have been abandoned by the new owner. ![]() |

![]() ![]() I hope she served the owner well for the 10 - 13 years that she was alive. Would be interesting to know the odometer reading. But the high-end Europeans of today really have a life of only 10 years. After that, the time, money & expertise required to keep them running is too much of a headache. The moneybags who bought it new would have already moved onto the next big thing. Potential second or third owners would be petrified by the cost of keeping it running (which could exceed the cost of the car). | |

Surprisingly most of the cars in this thread are Mercedes's - E and S Class's and some BMW 5s and 7s. I don't remember seeing a single Audi (the newer ones) on this thread. Does that make the Audi's more reliable and less expensive to maintain amongst the German manufacturers? | ||

![]() True most of the cars here are pre-import era which did not have an official service backup - except for Audi and BMW which had a good service backup in Mumbai (Ashiya Motors and Navnit Motors) and much before they officially entered the market. | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Hey R32 - I got this pic from the below link. There are a couple of W201's that I have seen semi-restored and now gathering dust. Let me know if you are interested, will send you the location details. Although I am not sure if they would still be around. https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/kiwig...oned-cars/amp/ Last edited by Rehaan : 3rd October 2017 at 15:57.
