1st Ambani's
2nd Manikchand's
3rd From someone in Tripura

These pix don't seem to do justice to that car...makes it kinda look dull.
BTW are u sure its a Maybach62??

Looks too small to be a 62. Then again, I may be wrong as the angle is making it truly difficult to tell.

and yes for some reason it looks small from the rear...

I've heard that there are two of them in Ludhiana.

Source from DCIL says there is only 4 Maybachs in India including the demo car with them. So it might be the one which was on road after Ambani & Manikchand. One of the most attractive feature of Maybach is an individual manager for each car & in India DCIL provides it. Hence all the Maybach came to India'll be registered with them.

not all cars are brought through DCIL, some are imported on their own like the Ambani's, so for that I doubt DCIL provides support, considering you can get a maybach for a lot of money off the MSRP in europe and US..it could cost someone round about 4c to bring it into india on road compared to what DCIL charges(closer to 5)

comfortablywacky · 1st June 2006, 20:24

IF its brought from India then it has to be a 62 ...coz i had read it somewhere that they are getting only the 62...
Seriously the pics dont do justice at all ... the car looks splendid otherwise

Deserves a better no plate too.

The guy inside wouldn't even know that hez in a traffic jam. He must be busy listenin to music or watchin a DVD or drinking some champagne while all the exhausts of the auto's and the buses blare outside.

Even I had seen it last year in ludhiana , on the ludhiana chandigarh road. Had no number plates at that time and was being escorted by 2 two punjab police gypsies (one in front, the other at the back).

I didn't have a cameras at that time to click a pic, but seriously guys, u have to see it to belive, how large this vehicle actually is.

As far as I know, it is owned by some nirankari guru and is a personal import(i.e.non- DCIL) .
