Anish why is the back side look raised? has been paded for Indian roads, Metro motors in Mumbia had put spacer pads between strut and the body mounting to raise our Standard 2000! She does not seem be the airsuspension spec to have mannually raised her via a switch is she?

evo · 15th May 2009, 16:04

its very very clean looking. Nice.

Rotorhead · 15th May 2009, 16:08

well maintained beautiful car.

anish9000 · 15th May 2009, 20:40

The car was restored about 2 months back.

@Canonball : I must say you got very sharp eyes. Yes the car had been raised slightly to due to the bad roads but did not like the way the car handled so it has been shifted back to the normal height.

Awesome Merc!!! Just love this timeless design! Looks very neat.

Saw this Toyota QQQ on a rainy afternoon in Salt Lake. It had a consulate number plate.

I know its neither a supercar nor an exotic, but the extremely oddball design sure warrants a mention on this thread.

AyAn! · 17th May 2009, 13:43

QQQ?? nevr heard of it.Must be a Bhutan(judging from the red plates) or a Nepal car.

canonball · 18th May 2009, 11:42

anish good to know yo have got her back to her orignal height. Our roads are only going to improve in the future so I wouldn't mind putting up with a little more skillfull/carefull driving around and over speed breakers/pot holes at the expense of keeping her orignal for now

IMO, it doesn't suit the car at all. The serious, aggressive character of the beemer is made fun of with a plate like that! That font would look good on a cute car like the spark!
Imagine one of those new security plates on the car... that would look awesome!

@ ayan: Nice pics, bro.

cheers
