Very true, ive been wanting to take the GTO to chandigarh and beyond but the zirakpur patch is the only thing stopping me. Infact while comeing from baddi yesterday i tool a detour especially to check out that part of the highway but was dissappointed to see the same condition after months. I wish it was as easy as going to jaipur. The day your car passes through to delhi let me know, i shall visit chd the same week for sure hehe! Congratss on the car though, would love to see the photoshoot happen. Im gonna be spending tomorrow at the customs clearance too, gotta get my engine parts out!

Sure. Fellow BHPian and my friend V10, says that a delhi based car club called Horse Power would be interested in a photo shoot. Their collectible stable consists of Bentley's, SLK, SL's , BMW's etc. This is of course, what he tells me, I have no idea who these gentlemen are.

Thats sad. But at least he committed that it'll leave on the 26th which is less than a week away. I can understand how you feel. The wait must be harrowing, but all good things come after a long wait.

Dont let your spirit and cheer fall. It'll be worth the wait when the car arrives. Take a nice long drive to make up for all those agonizing moments of waiting.

@ecksreturns - buddy, instead of waiting like this, how about driving it down from italy ?
I am ready to drive it down for you - and you can sit, relax and sip some coffee comfortably in the passenger seat !!

Akshay1234 · 21st July 2008, 20:55

that must be real irritating for you. but why dont you go to italy and rip her a bit. take her for a track day over there or something. because you wont be able take her to the limit in india. after having some fun in italia get her back here.

I have the Aston on my mind and now with Aston # 2 in Delhi,I really wanna get my hands on one soon but have no idea which workshop would service such things or at least provide the facility for it. Any one here have any idea where Sanjay Dutt gets his Ferrari serviced? Or any garage in Delhi?

Hi KD,

There is a very famous motor garage in Mumbai called Tandon Motor Garage, The owner is a very good friend of my friend. I have his team service an NSX, 360.430 as well as a Murci (Red ) which was there earlier in Mumbai
The only problem is that he is in Mumbai but i know he flies his team to Delhi too for emergency repairs.

Yes, you can go to Patel Auto Services in Delhi and they have been servicing exotics for over 30+ years. I can vouch for their service quality, and recently the 599GTB and R8 in Delhi were also serviced by them.

my eye balls popped out yesterday when I Spotted a Red Ferrari(not sure but i guess it was a 430) yesterday near Sector 36/37 yesterday.
Was stuck in traffic so couldnt take pictures.
I guess it was the same that was spotted in Noida a few days back
since this one had a PB07(hoshiarpur) registration number.

Boy it had an orgasmic exhaust note.
