Supercars & Imports : Kerala

BaCkSeAtDrIVeR · 8th September 2007, 11:29

Guess that has been around for a month at least. KL 7 BF (or BE) registration, right? Saw it on Market road - Banerji road junction. That was the same evening as I saw an ad for this car on some business magazine; do did not think that car qualifies as an exotic.

Spotted this Benimar (spanish?) built Mercedes motorhome at a function today in Varkala, belongs to an Ashram..

There were a couple of S320s, ignored those and tried to photograph an Amby MarkII - which is an exotic nowadays

I too have heared about the vehicle thru a fren of mine at DaimlerChrysler India. As far as I know its HR-regn, for tax saving...

The whole entourage always contains couple of S classes as well as this motorhome.Motorcade looks better than what most politicos can boast of.Some people have the right art of living

Can only be the SC430 as that's the only "sports" coupe ever produced by them. IIRC there was a GS coupe too, couple of generations back.
