Supercars & Imports : Kerala

There was a Honda Gold Wing yesterday in Calicut. I was brought by a businessman from Telicherry who is settled in B'lore. I was at Cochin yesterday to attend a press meet in connectiong with the opening of BMW showroom. My cousin informed me about the bike & he has took the snaps too that I'll post as soon as I get it. Anyway here is a video cliping of the same.

BMW's dealership is remaned as 'Platino Classic', earlier it was 'Koyenco Prestige'. The same group is the second dealers for Honda care in Cochin named 'Cosmic Honda'. I think they don't want to spoil the sales becuase of using Koyenco name, which has a black mark by the Tata dealership. Photos of the ianuguration will be posted later.

Contributed by a friend Thaha from Cochin.

The Suzuki GSX is owned by the same guy from Calicut who recently bought the SLK with AMG wheels.

This is not the TT owned by the Audi dealer, but bought 2nd hand by a Jwellers.

Was it a white and orange coloured? There was one in Calicut a few days back, spotted it from Mavoor Road infront of a hotel.

Lol, that is a good one. I'm basically a builder & also a freelance auto-journalist and test-drive premimum & sports cars for an auto-magazine, also test-drive commercial vehicles.

That's cool. I can see you are doing a great job at whatever you are doing.

Not sure if you remember I have met you once at Taj Calicut for a dinner get together (Also a close friend of designation - Cherian)..

Thank you for the good words, I'm not doing anything great, its all Almighty's blessings.

Ya, I remember we meet with Cherian, but was it at Taj or from Crown theater?

Das, I missed the function as I fall sick. Anyway we'll wish Nash our active member 'artforzen' on this occation. May the Almighty shower His blessing throught out his life.

One of the S-classes & the X5 will be the one from Calicut as his close relatives are from here. I guess, another S-class & Rav4 will be from the Software giants of Cochin.
