It's actually known as Hanseat. Force Motors' first product in India. You'll find quick details about it in Iron Rock's comprehensive review on Force Gurkha.

guys i had been to Madikeri last weekend and found a Board which said Vintage Cars took a turn from where i was supposed to go and followed this route. Its not like a museum its just a shed with lots of cars. The owner is actually hunting for a place in the city to Display these cars but as if now its a shed. good collection. However the workers lack knowledge of the Detailing of the car. It has a entry fee of Rs 100 per person as well as if you want to take your camera with you its extra 300. didn't know i was going to look at a shed while paying. was a bit disappointed however the cars brought back the mood.Its on the same way as Dubare elephant camp you will have to drive a stretch of 9 Kms ahead of Dubare elephant camp. was thinking of writing a travelogue of the journey we had and where we stayed but finding it hard to put it in words as im a bad writer.

Can you identify these Vintage cars ?

I took some snaps of some vintage cars at a hotel but I can't say their make or model conclusively.Can anyone in this forum Identify these old cars because I have been pondering about them for a while now.The snaps were taken in a jiffy so the badges are not very clear in some of them
The yellow one seems to be a morris minor and the blue is an old fiat don't think it's the premier padmini

The badge on the yellow one reads morris so i think it's a morris minor,correct me if i am wrong. I don't know the term 'Dukkar fiat'.Is it a slang used in North India for fiat 1100?I think all versions of fiat 1100 were known as fiat millicento.

Here is a link to an interesting review of this car by Jay Leno on Jay Leno's Garage.
