Raaste Pyaar Ke (1982)

In an opening sequence we see a choptop 1940s Studebaker and the familiar VW dune buggy that we've seen in many films before.




A Standard 10/Pennant wagon conversion...


...that unfortunately gets crushed


A Standard 20 van meets a similar fate.


A Ford Consul is seen, along with an Open sedan.



The Opel too gets crushed unfortunately.

This one looks like a Mazda from the logo on the grill. Google search shows - Mazda 929 Coupe from the mid to late 70's.

The 1977 Mazda RX4 and 929 Coupe look very similar

A 1959 Chevrolet Impala featured in this song from the 1960's film Sagaai. Biswajeet and Rajashri (V.Shantaram's daughter also seen in Brahmachari) lipsync and the song "na yeh zameen thi" sung by Mohammed Rafi and Asha Bhonsle is set to tune by Ravi. The car is only seen in the beginning for a few moments and at the end with its posterior. It very soon disappears.

We see Mohanlal's Cadillac, also featured in other movies.


As late as the 90s films were still using a VW Baywindow ambulance to destroy in a chase scene.

Was lucky to see PUA 707 today in Delhi in a dark blue avatar

From the film "Hanste Zakhm" (1973) lovers Navin Nischal and Priya Rajvansh are seen moving in a Fiat taxi through the streets of Bombay. The hero is driving this car. Though for most of the song's duration, the windscreen and the front seat occupants behind are shown, in a few scenes the city traffic can be seen. The taxi's meter is visible in a few scenes.

The best part of this video are the Bombay rains that seem to pour over the car in some scenes. This revives our memories of having observed the Fiat/Premier taxis braving Bombay's monsoons since decades.
