Fantastic snaps. Hummer is too big to be driven on that congested road.

Drive Safe,
350Z
Thank you.Yeah,it was like a monster among other tiny vehicles(when compared with it) and the horn was also different,it was like the wind tone,but more in intensity,like the truck horns in the U.S.A.

Thanks Dhaya,I was also wondering about the sun roof,as I haven't noticed before,as this time I saw it from 2nd floor,I managed to click it.
That's the parking lot of a Hotel near my house,that's where the Z4 guy stayed.
I saw his car near my college and sent a message to him,and he replied that he is staying at that hotel,and by the time I went,i saw his car,took few photos and came back.I tried to contact him,but,there was no response.
And,the next day,i was returning from Tambaram via Thindivanam bye-pass,I saw this Z4 and a White color TLC racing on the road in the opposite direction.

I saw this old generation Land Cruiser with different taillights(i guess mahindra van's taillights).
It had rexin stitched door panels and door panels being fixed in it.
Great Pics Surendar!! Its a very old model Land Cruiser. Still in use in some parts of middle east and Africa. You are right about the tail lights. They are not the LC's. By the way I really liked your travelogue on Chennai-Hyd trip.

I saw a Van,which i thought as Winger,but,then it was a Mercedes Benz,which i confirmed by the logo on the steering wheel.
The last photo is a Van with European license plate,but,it had Mercedes logo in front,and tempo traveller's lights,fenders and bonnet.
The Yellow Van is a Mercedes/Dodge Sprinter intially made only for the US market. It was during the time when the Daimler Benz/Chrysler joint venture was still active. It is sold as Dodge Sprinter cargo van in the USA.

P.S. I know I am replying almost a year late !!!! but what to do I just joined and your posts seem veeeeeeery addictive :)

This looked like a modified Sierra from the front,but,then the rear had "RAV 4" on it.It is one of the old imports in Pondicherry.

This is actually an old model Toyota RAV4 mini SUV. Very popular in the US and fuel efficient too (by US standards ;) )

i think this was the car which i was discussing with Ilango few weeks ago on internet chat. The number plate has been changed to a cheaper font. This was driven rashly at night time when i was crossing in the opposite direction. Is the owner on this forum?
