My cars challenge

146 Views 8 Votes 14 Comments

We have always opted for hired vehicles as it has never been a joy to drive on Indian roads.  We also felt one less car would mean that much less pollution and also that gave an opportunity for taxi and Rickshaw owners to earn their daily bread.  It is pathetic to see cars in garages never used to their optimum use – more of a prestige symbol here in India where public transport is easily available. 

Our choice was always Hindustan Ambassador but sadly they no longer ply.  This car earned a reputation as being the best taxi in the world  

Now it is a different story.  I have this guy who takes me round short distances in his Auto rickshaw and he has been there for years and for long distances again I have a guy who takes me in his taxi which he keeps changing and so I would not know much about the model. (lol)

      • No, there is nothing. This happens I guess if the title is too exact on posts, it’s happened before a few times, but it doesn’t always happen. This has been a glitch from the very beginning. Hopefully these will all get more views as more people post about it. I made a new post, with a different title. This one won’t get confused. lol It’s a long title. 😉

  2. This one. We drove it with it only being able to shift into 1st and 2nd gear. It had three on the steering column. 3rd gear no longer worked so we had to drive it slow. This is also the truck that lost the steering wheel during a sharp corner, and I was driving it. I had pulled it out of the column and was in my hands. I slammed on the brakes and put it back in the hole and drove home.

  1. I loved this car. It had a light powder blue interior, electric everything. Some lady T-boned me in it. Small dent on the back fender around the wheel, and a fin was smashed. She was driving a brand new pick up off the lot, and had to call her husband to tell him the bad news. The pickups hood was almost against the windshield. The new truck a total loss .

  5. I have no photos of my cars. But here in Torrevieja Spain we have one of the cars. It even comes in the same color. When the blockade is over I will shoot it. Here’s what car we have here in the 1967 VW Bus.

    • The game is to find the cars youve owned online, and in the same color. This challenge takes some time to try to find them. I know you don’t share photos that are not yours, but I thought this might be fun for some of us who are not essential workers like yourself. Thank you, again.

    • That would be awesome to only own one. I had always bought used cars, some very used so they didnt last long. I was wondering how this would go over in different countries and for the people that have only lived in a big city their whole life.
