The President did use it as a limo, atleast in 1990. The Grosser can be seen behind in the convoy.

The crowds were fantastic and engaging too. The youth were fascinated and had so many questions.

Re: Vintage and Classic Cars on Display in India

These once very common two wheelers are on display though in doddering condition at Sai Vatika Lawns, Nagpur. Neither would have got a second glance about two decades ago. But things are different today.

A Bajaj 150. Among the earliest ones from mid 1971, going by its registration. That's when Vespa 150 was renamed as the Bajaj 150. The speedo is factory fitted. Note the horn console housed in the same configuration as the old Vespa 150. But the flywheel casing is cut and has only two vents. The earlier ones had four. Victim of metal shrinking and cost cutting.

This is a late 1970's Allwyn Pushpak in it's oldest avatar. The speedo is original. But its badged as a Vijai Super Mark II (mid 1980's badge for the refreshed model).

Re: Vintage and Classic Cars on Display in India

Met this rare beauty during one of our breakfast meets here in Calcutta. Still runs on all good and this rare bike is also part of many vintage car and bike shows. The owner is an enterprise person himself and his passion runs all over and is an avid enthusiast.
