it's a bell standard and belongs to the doctor himself, who is also a collector
he is willing to sell it for 2.5 lacs which i guess is a li'l too steep

Bell standard,can't find even a single pic of it when googled.are you sure is that car's name??I'm talking about car with reg. no MDT 615
So its up for sale ,Is that because its not seen in shows nowadays??

crazybiker46 · 26th January 2008, 23:44

the stars were usually given at every 100,000 KM... so thats 600,000 Km... less than a million kilometers, let alone miles.
six million miles would be about 9600000 Km.

Whoops! by bad! i meant KM!!!

crazybiker46 · 11th March 2008, 20:14

Oops sorry for that,its in KM.....

Here are some more from auto expo held here....

Beetle

Plymouth,don't know model name

Agree -- it must be 600,000 km. 6Million Km would require almost 70years of driving everyday for 8 hours a day (365 days a year) @30 kmph average.

That aside -- very nice example!!
