Thiyags

OT: What about a Kazwa? The Renault Espace look-alike.

Point noted. ;-) But I need to keep one FRP maker in hand in Calcutta.

I started this thread long time back so thought about giving an update.. I am still having the car and its running trouble free... Super fun and still a unique thing on the road..

Kindly post the present day pictures of the car and a brief log. Many would be interested in knowing the sanstorm's exploits.

Hmm... Almost three years now. Why don't you take some time to file a long term ownership report on this car? Kms covered, services done, major expenses, problems noted, strong points of the car... Basically, anything and everything that may help people understand this alien. You are in all probabilities the only BHPian who owns this toy.

I will click the pictures and revert.

The car is running pretty smooth. There was problem with ECU at the very beginning and Fuel regulator pump ditched me ... San Motors was very efficient in sending the courier. To my amazement,when I asked for the the FRP and New Hood , they sent me the stuffs before payment.. Surprising and sweet..

The car despite my 5 star ratings is still a weekend car.Love it...
