AUTO EXPO '10: Mercedes-Benz

Talking about cars and 'Mercedes' not in the picture, how it can be!!!

Truly I was excited for the Mercedes stall, not for the super luxurious cars but for the new 'Bus' they are going to launch here in India in collaboration with Sutlej.

But I was not at all disappointed by seeing the new Concept which claims to be equipped with the best suspension. Heard from somewhere that they even claim that your champagne glass will remain stable over a speed breaker.

The new GL and S class were also carrying the symbol of luxury. And not to mention about 'SLS AMG' equipped with a handcrafted engine. It's ad says, 'it has a cockpit, it has a engine and it has two wings but still it is a Car'. Really a piece of machine though they are all out of reach :P.

Am I forgetting something.... yes yes. There were few scale models(not to mention the price), a super cool bicycle was also in the display.
And yes, there were few sculptured scale models from various design stages. Those were super cool.

Mercedes also displayed it's new 4-cylinder diesel generator which is to be more superior in terms of economy, emission and output.

Is it over crowded!!!

AUTO EXPO '10: Volkswagen

Volkswagen launched it's most awaited small car 'POLO', and I just found their stall flooded with Polo. This successful European model is coming to India in both petrol and diesel versions with a 1.2L engine and 75PS of power.

It seems to attract quite a amount of small car buyers with it's specifications and style.

AUTO EXPO 2010

Fog Fog and more 'Fog'

It happened a week before. The clock was showing 11.00 and was walking towards midnight. After realizing this I remembered my home, so time to wrap up the things as it is and to rush.

Damn, the traffic in the late evening on NH-24 really sucks but no other way to cheat it.

After a few minutes, a call from Dad, and advised to take a slip road to avoid the traffic chaos on a major road(read ITO) which was flashing in the NEWS channels. Man, it was dense fog when I reached Yamuna bridge, and I was again enjoying the drive with open window feeling the winter of Delhi. After reaching Akshardham Temple it was irresistible to stop and to breath outside with no one around except Rahil, my colleague. The feeling was soooper but needed to rush home.

But the fog got so dense that it was difficult to recognize the newly constructed ITO Chungi circuit at Laxminagar. Seeing the dramatic looking street lamps could not resist to stop and utilize the Canon.

Some random walk/wave in the Fog, some foggy captures and I started for home with a big grin on my face.

Main underpass towards Gandhi Nagar






Biker... just missing my ride now a days :(

'DUCATI' - some adrenaline added

Running some short of Adrenaline in the veins!!! Do visit ‘DUCATI’ at Gurgaon who are now open. World’s leading producer of racing motorcycles ‘DUCATI’ is finally here at the close proximity of Delhi with their second Showroom just after Mumbai. It shouted it’s presence on 18^th December 2009 with the visit of ‘Nicky Hayden’, former MotoGP champion.

Time is proving that India has a very good potential for the ‘SUPER BIKES’, with the launch of world’s leading producer of racing motorcycles ‘DUCATI’ we got another official range of super bikes. Company has bigger plans for India and they are planning to bring a wide range of bikes as well as accessories.

This weekend I managed to visit there and captured some of the ducauties in my lens and would love to thank Aryan and Addy for their company and of course for the 100mm.:-)

'DUCATI 848', loved this one...

'DUCATI Monster', the cheapest bike available...

DUCATI Hypermotard 1100...

'FOGGIFIED'

It is in the News Headlines and people are just irritated with it especially people who are flying. Fog, actually 'Dence Fog' is dominating in most areas here in North.
Today I found extreme fog in East Delhi with damn slow traffic on roads where as traffic was quite smooth in the South part as the Fog was not that dence.

But I'm personally enjoying this. 'Dilli ki Sardi' has it's own charm. I'm loving the scene from our Balcony and feel good seeing the Fog around me.


Captured this when I was starting for office 2 days before.
