Another spontaneous drive and good fun . The weather was fantastic all the way till noon. Some snaps of the cars . Had a huge GM van trailing a car for a shoot also, sadly the actors not the cars

Today after a couple of weekends some of us met at our usual spot on the Bandra side of the sealink participating cars were my ponton, a jaguar 1.5 litre, a dodge kingsway, a ford model A and and a Buick convertible. We had a great time driving around the streets of Mumbai culminating at our usual Starbucks for a quick coffee and sandwich before heading back home.

The excitement is definitely building up for the sula trip for the 26 th weekend.

I am sure you must have had a fun drive. Amol, If I am not mistaken, all the cars of this morning are in good mechaniclal shape. yet only you will be driving to Nasik. Why not persuade the others to join in on our next drive out of town? How about one to Amby valley or Lavassa or Poona in Feb? Why is Dinesh's Buick minus hub caps? Aniruddh, where was your beauty? I believe Shrikant Karani is organising a drive to Lonavala next Sunday for all cars. Anyone going?

Had a late night that kept me from getting my car. RISHAD is coming mostly after we spoke to him during the morning drive and I think Mr Lal had come straight from out of town and jumped into his car and came so I think the hubcaps were in his boot. Next weekend the LONAVLA drive I am not aware will check with Shrikant

Just a suggestion. Since the Alexandria school is displaying some of our cars today and tomorrow, why dont you guys culminate your drive at the school and let the public see these beauties whilst you walk down to Starbucks for coffee? It would be a nice gesture .

Had another drive this morning and we met directly at Starbucks at Fort. The entire area was full of film crew in every nook and corner. And one actress who ever she was did three different brands photo shoot in 1/2 an hour from a bike to a soap to a cosmetics brand while she yet had to complete her movie

and I have no clue who she was . Hehe

. Earlier spotted a MORDERN london taxi it seems used by lots in Poona when I asked the driver . We then drive to the Alexandria school to see the bikes and cars . Honestly bike guys will love it . Snaps taken yesterday today it was filled up .
