Nope, it does not match with pictures from Google image search.
I was approaching a busy intersection, hence could not pay much attention to locate/search model name.

I believe it must have been the Toyota Alphard. Saw it last week near Chandani Chowk.

Lovely daughter!! are u sure??

I had once seen 2 maybachs back to back with consecutive no. plates enter the koregaon park main road about a year and a half ago.
both were mh 12!!

@quickdraw

by bhushan do you mean the same bhushan who earlier had a white evo VII??

Yes Lovely Daughter Jahanvi. Because she let me ride in it. A college boy with torn jeans who came on a CBZ outside Taj and stopped like the general junta and oggled at the car got to sit in it this was a long long time back in my first year. I had to rummage through a lot to find this picture.

That's the one which replaced the red 360 right? Awesome pic.

I know this belongs to the Vintage car section but since this is just a spotting and i have no pictures i'm posting it here...

just two days ago i spotted a 1953 Rolls Royce Silver Wraith (that is i guess it was that)
It was on a tow truck and had come to this certain society in Naylor road like it was just reburbished and for delivery... i went to check out the car and it was MAGNIFICENT! it was red wine coloured and run like a dream!!
the owners had just got it home so didn't want to spoil thier happy moments by asking if i could click pics...
the car remains under a black cover now...

quickdraw · 21st February 2009, 18:33

Thanks guys, you have no idea how that felt. And being in first year and all I was the total hero of the class then. It was the time when she just had got it and it was all over the news and stuff.

A couple of my friends saw a white Phantom being tail-ended by a Santro at the end of the Expressway last night!

Repairs to the Phantom will cost more than the Santro brand new! :o

It pains me to see things like this. Imagine if the Santro was slightly reckless or if his brakes weren't very good!

kbk_75 · 24th February 2009, 15:37

Actually, as I understand it, it was the Phantom driver's fault. He was reversing up the off-ramp because it appeared that he took the off-ramp by mistake! :o

Then he totally deserves it. The Mobile Store phantom should be repossessed by RR. Its a Joke really. I mean there are flashier and more funky cars they could have done their publicity in. I am quite sure the Bharti guy isnt getting any more RR's ever!

Oh almost forgot saw a BLACK A4 approach me with the sun behind it. The running lights looked ohh so sexy. What a beauty she looked right there. Anyone who has played the Audi Driving challenge on the iPhone knows what I am talking about.

Saw some weird looking red Suzuki on the highway coming to Bombay a couple of days ago. It was a hatch, but looked very low and quite wide. Definitely an import. Anyone know what I'm babbling about?!

The same afternoon my parents spotted a white E93 M3 on the highway. Too bad I wasn't around then!
