Is this by any chance the owner of the Kajah group(as in kajah beedi). I've heard he's got a lot of classic cars.

One and only. He has a garage, body and paintshop and trained technicians at 'home' to look after his cars.

are all the 3 RR's Silver Seraphs? putting up snaps of the car does not reveal the identity of the owner does it?

Ya the Khaja Group is having the car..their collection range to aound 130+..

Kerala is also blessed with somany bikes like Hayaboosa, R1, SBR, Ninja, R6, etc..& even Harleys...One Harley is laying in Calicut Airport Air Cargo section for customs clearance..its for my college mate..but he is abroad, hence not cleared...

It was mentioned by a member form Kerala in another thread.

Has it been cleared or still in the port?
