This particular 911 is used as the TD vehicle of Porsche Centre Kochi. Porsche Kochi, BMW, Motorrad, Mini etc are all under the EVM group, headed by Mr. Sabu Johny. So maybe, Tovino was given the car for a test.

Did come to know from the guy who 'protects' all of Tovino's cars that he did order something special soon after getting the Mini convertible, although did not divulge what it was.

Perhaps the test drive picture offers clues.

Luxury car tax evasion: Madras high court imposes Rs 1 lakh cost on actor Vijay

The Madras High Court has dismissed a writ petition filed by actor Joseph Vijay in 2012, seeking exemption of Entry Tax for his Rolls Royce Ghost car, imported from England. It has also imposed a cost of ₹1 lakh to be paid by him to the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister’s Public Relief Fund.

He has imported a prestigious costly car from England but unfortunately, not paid entry tax as per the statutes. He has filed a writ petition to avoid payment of tax. The petitioner, who is a reputed cine actor, is expected to pay the tax promptly and punctually,” the judge said.

Any information regarding the aforementioned 'entry tax'? Is it part of the car's on-road price or is that an additional tax the buyer should pay during registration?

Entry Tax is a type of indirect tax levied on the shipment of goods from one state to another. It is applicable only when goods are brought into the state for use. The State Entry tax Act maintains rates for the goods of each state. The person who owns or purchases the goods at the time of entry into the state is responsible to pay the entry tax.

This is what entry tax is stated as per Bank Bazaar. Not sure how the sticker prices of these expensive cars work out, as unlike mass segment cars these brands don't have dealers / presence in each state. Maybe someone else on the forum who has purchased a fresh Rolls or Lambo could shed light on the same.

That Vantage belongs to a doctor/hospital owner from Chennai and I am pretty sure his name isn't Vijay.

The Youtuber mentioned seeing Vijay driving the car and it did go inside his house. Ya, maybe someone else or Vijay just took it for a drive from the doctor
