It belongs to the group of private bankers-turned-hoteliers.

Its the one snapped by SpeedZak..The guy is a NRI (Kelco I guess)..he used to buy new cars & sell it after 3-6 months..there was a 7-series too for sale..I was told that hes going for the new S & Hummer..

I entered & sat in the Q7 for the first time..I was at Cochin with Dad & uncle for an official visit, hence they were busy..so couldn't really enjoy it..



His 730d..which is already sold to north..

If you want to see exotics in Cochin, just go to the dingy parking lot of the rather seedy looking Airlines Hotel (Opposite the Maharajas College Ground on MG Road). That place normally has a parking-lot full of imported cars - looked very funny to me when I went to pick up cigarettes from the restaurant there because nobody with his salt would stay at that hotel.

It looks like he is a 'dealer' of 'phoren' cars.

A friend working at ICICI Prudential (new office at MG Road) saw the A8 parked in front of his office. It is owned by the Pvt Bank-to-Hotel folks (Mu****t). They also have an ML320. The A8 is Silver colour. I've asked him to take snaps. I'll post the snaps when I get them from him.
