Some time before I had seen 2 alphards in crirayath .

Some time later I had seen one in the portico of the famous jwellerer(KL- 45) , The other one which I had seen is in the parking place of a builder from ernakulam

The third one I had seen in the news (malayala manorama)

If its 1992, then it will be Rolls Royce Silver Spirit!

No buddy, then it'll be the second one, the Khajas have an RR in their collection for a long time.

Hanmust it could be a Phanteom as they were produced and sold in the same body type from the 50's till mid 90's in the same shape same car used by the queen of england, but higly unlikely as very few were made, 2 such cars are believed to be in india one i think is with bhoghilal in mumbai. The other one is black.
