This was back in 2004 and only two people, me and dad.
Distance - 950 Kms Approx
Time taken - 18 hrs approx
Car used -Maruti 800
[shock] Singh saab 950 kilometers in a Maruti 800 and that also in just 18 hours!! Adding to it the reads of the time of 2004!
I guess you would have sped the hell out of Maruti 800 on open stretches I guess. BTW how was your a$$ at the end of the journey? Was it just painful or it started feeling non existent? [;)]

Also I was expecting the name of a Ford Taurus too in your long drives list, I guess you owned one in US recently.

The max I have travelled in 1 day is not more than 600 Kms. But copule of years back I had done a max travelling of 950 Kms in 1 single day. We went to a place called Gandgapur and there was no place to stay. All hotels were booked on account of Poornima and some religious function at place and had no option to return back. We thought of coming back to Solapur and stay there but since I knew the road Solapur to Pune we thought of coming back to Pune.

Distance - 950 KMS
Time taken - 22 hours including breaks, places at temples, etc
Route - (taken for covering the distance. Eg - Delhi - Leh - Delhi) - Pune - Solapur - Tuljapur - Akkalkot - Gandgapur - Solapur - Pune
Car used - Santro
