MS Dhoni's impressive car and bike collection

vaish9925 · 24th July 2020, 20:49

The Pajero SFX, the Yamaha RD350, the Rajdoot and the Suzuki Shogun portray the versatility of his collection. Captain Cool's garage definitely deserves a separate thread, just like the 369 garage.
Kudos to BHPians ChiragM and //M for this wonderful thread.

Cheers,
Vaish.

Excellent collection of cars and motorcycles of a humble, down to earth and gentleman cricketer. Hats off to him. He is truly last of the gentlemen tribe.

It's not only the beauties, but also the people around them that this man cares for. I am sure the Security person in both the pics is same and the time gap between these pics is easily more than 12 years.

While the cars have been documented in this thread, MSD's motorcycle collection is really impossible to document. Last I heard he owns more than a 100 motorcycles, right from a TVS Star City to a Confederate Hellcat X132.

In his early days of fame, he had bought the black Scorpio, followed by a Pajero SFX. Amongst the motorcycles, other than the CBZ and the Machismo, he was spotted often on his R600 Thundercat. Since MSD lived in a government quarter back then, his Thundercat used to be parked at his BIL's house, which is within 100 metres from my residence in Ranchi. It used to be the talk of the town and I was lucky enough to see it up close and personal multiple times back in my high school days.

Now since he stays in a massive farmhouse, his collection is pretty much elusive except for the pictures we have on this thread.

He must be the only person in the country to own a H2 of each kind - one which has four wheels and the other which has two wheels.

A man of substance, a man of honor, and man of machines. True terminator in all respect. Never fails to delight, especially the two wheeler collections. Thanks for putting this up.

Cheers!

Blue smoke customs are rebuilding another RD 350 for Dhoni, but this time its an LC though. CSK colour theme would be interesting to see

Here is a side profile of the same car when it was on display at the High Street Phoenix Mall in Mumbai back in November 2019. The car was part of a collection that was getting auctioned.

Yes that's where it all began.

I am grateful to bhpian ap10046 for quickly responding to my PM sometime in the end of July 2020. The deal was finalized and the car was delivered in Ranchi within a fortnight.

Sadly I do not have any other pictures at the moment, apart from the ones which are already uploaded on this thread by fellow bhpians.

I will surely share more pictures if something comes my way.
