I didn't realize that the Golf had quite a following of its own! It was only after reading a thread here that I remembered about a neat Golf ( mk2?) parked away here at Mysore. Its a diesel, AFAIK and hasn't been taken out for quite a while now.
Its parked at the same garage as the Fiat that I had shared about earlier. Luckily, that post generated quite a bit of interest and subsequently the Fiat has now since been rescued by an FCB member and has found a good home.

Hope the Golf gets rescued too.

The Fiat that's found a better home.

This car is actually quite famous! I remember seeing this car on TV right from my school days and going all gaga over this Impala! It appeared in a lot of television ads and movies!

Re: Pics: Vintage & Classic cars in India

For the enthusiasts on the Forum - two sightings today (08 March 2015) of well maintained vintage vehicles. Not pictures, but videos through the dash cam.

(i) A fire fighting vehicle, presumably out on a road show. Spotted at Chanakya Puri Diplomatic Enclave.



(ii) A vintage car on the Delhi Gurgaon Expressway. I would say the car was doing good speed. Or, with the possibility of heavy rain, the owner was rushing the car home!

Its quite a long list and there are more bikes than cars. Karl, please move/delete if inappropriate.
Location: a private garage in Mysore.

Micki9559 and r_nairtvm sorry for the delay in sharing pics of the bikes you had requested. But better late than never, eh?

Re: Pics: Vintage & Classic cars in India

Just went on my Office desk after looking at such beauties ruined especially the Kawasaki GPZ 750 and the last two Honda's. I stared at those bikes for almost half an hour imagining how they might have been in their glory days

Re: Pics: Vintage & Classic cars in India

Nice Raj era picture. Bungalow occupied by a British family in Ranchi; 20th Century. Wonder what the car is, and is it still around?
A fantastic read for the historically inclined, especially the interviews.

Re: Pics: Vintage & Classic cars in India

Spotted this bug at HD showroom, Gurgaon. Going by the colour choice, possibly owned by the showroom guy. Doesn't seem to be in a running condition though.
