Today I was at MGF Mall at gurgaon. I left for the car parking at around 8 Pm. When I came out of the lift lobby, I noticed a foreigner taking pictures a white Skoda Laura Tsi ambiente. I thought that he is a car freak like me and is taking pictures of his own car. But after taking many snaps, he stopped and started taking pics of a Swift(Blue VXi Old).
Then a santro arrived(Black Gls) and he sat and left. I found it weird so I am sharing this.[surprise]

Dude to the best of my knowledge, Skoda is not sold stateside. Are you sure Skoda Laura is sold there? Wasn't the case until 2009 cause I was there until then....

Regardless, on a different note - we live in an age of CCTVs, camera phones, and youtube. You can't really be bothered if someone takes pics of your car. Statistically, I would imagine 5 entities recording a still/video image of your vehicle every day on average whenever you go to work, shopping, your apartment complex maybe, toll bridges etc. The list goes on.

Maybe as a rebadged Volks? Check out the VW USA site (don't you looove the sites these car cos. make for their US audience?) and see if you spot Octavia under a psuedonym.

Actually Im not sure if he took pics of my car. When I came he was just staring it with phone in his hand. I just observed quietly assuming he loves cars. Then he started taking pics of the laura. I went to my car then and sat observing him. He than saw me inside the car but did not stop taking pictures. Then a santro pulled in and he just sat into it and left. What made me suspicious was his body language. He was in a hurry and literally ran towards the santro.

You should have captured pics of that foreigner. We could then have a thread -

Foreigner capturing pics of Indian cars & Indian capturing pics of foreigner. [lol]
