I had seen the hummer , it was sticked with a poster NOT FOR SALE on the wind screen .

I also heard that Mr.Kella is gonna sell his hummer , its just a possibility that the hummer can be of Mr. Kellas

Saw the yellow FJ cruiser ripping through the sea port air port road.

This MACK truck was imported during the construction of Idukki Dam to transport some serious heavy machineries. I've seen the same once from Calicut atleast 4-5 years back when it carried a heavy transformer to the a new sub-station. Due to my interest in super heavy truck I was near it atleast for 2-3hours until it parked near the sub station site. But I didn't had the cam-phone then.

KSEB also had imported few Internation Scout 4x4 Jeeps for the same construction & one of them was there for sale with a elderly man at Angamalli-Petta from whom I bought my Merc 115 Compact. Due to my interest he also offered the Scout for me at a good price, but that time my pocket was empty after buying the Compact. But later when I enquired it, I was able to know that it was sold. Recently I also heard that the guy who bought it has restored it.

Foby, I was in Cochin last night & saw the yellow FJ & have snapped it as well, will post the photos at evening.

I was told that Mr.Kella exchanged his H3 with the RR-Sport from Chavakkad & the owner of Sport bought Kella's H3. Anyway he is going for a new RR Sport (hopfully Silver) & for time being he is using H3.

Here is the photos of the yellow FJ I spotted last night near Maharaja's! This one is also on Carnet & had middle east plate, I guess it was Qatar!

Today I was told that another white H2 is being landed at Valancheri (Malapuram) on Carnet!
