Spotted a Toyota Prius today in front of Ruby Hospital. Sorry, no pictures. I wasn't fast enough. Also caught sight of a pretty old [1990's maybe] Audi A4 in red. Will upload pictures tomorrow.

Was the Audi in front of a hotel on Hazra Road? Seen one there, IIRC

Yup i have seen that same audi too parked in the hotel porch.
It looked like a Audi 100 to me.

There are a few new '10 Cayennes doing the rounds in a few cities. However, I'm not sure if there is a new Cayenne in Kolkata. And no, that black Cayenne is the face-lifted version of the 1st generation Cayenne.

I am not exactly sure if you are referring to the same one. I am uploading the pictures. Please see for yourself and let me know. I spotted this car near Salt Lake swimming pool.

No, it was worse. I was standing in a crowded minibus which was headed in the opposite direction to that of the Prius.

This is an old A4. It belonged to the Chinese Visa Office(EC Block, Salt Lake). I think the Chinese officials had imported it. It has been now sold as it has normal regn plates(earlier it had yellow CC plates). THis car if I am not wrong stays in FD block as I have seen it there. It has also been spotted before.

Beetle

R8. By god, it looks gorgeous.

The white Beetle has a little dent just below the driver's side door.
Had gone to the VW workshop in Taratala yesterday to check out the Vento, spotted an MH-reg Toureg being worked on. It was REALLY dirty and had its entire front suspension taken out. :(
Also saw a yellow Beetle but didn't risk taking pics within the premises.

Spotted this awesome brand new CLS today. Had amazing wheels.
Apologies for the shaky photos.
