Hi Friend's This is My First Thread in TheAutomotiveIndia Website [:D]

This Thread is all about My first SUZUKI SB308 1986 Model Which i have Purchased a Year ago.

A Single Owner Car Owned by a Government Officer n self driven by Him till date I Purchased it [lol]

I owe a big time to a best friend of mine who helped me purchase this car, without him i wouldn't have gotten it. I had to bargain a lot, but at last i got my part of bargain. I bought this car at a price of Rupees 29,000. I was searching a model that ranged between 1984-1986, as i was very found of SUZUKI engine. I searched for about one year and later found this car. Till now I have spent Rupees 17000 from the date of its purchase. And I have bought all the orignal parts MGP for its restoration :)

Here are the pics taken immediately taken after Delivery from the First Owner[;)]

Congratulations on the purchase of the RED RUBY. Yours is the second red car in TAI.
The owners manual reminds me of the car which I didn't bought due to some issues. The owner had the original manual and a file full of all service and refueling bills.


See this link for brake boosters
