As far as know maintaining costs of both are high once after free services, as my manza is consuming upto 9k-10k per service with all filters change with oil change.

You guys rock! Simply awesome

The white Storme was racing like a horse where Rajiv touched 165kmph at one stretch and surprisingly were overtaken a XUV in reasonable curve of road with 120kmph and never felt any kind of body roll issue and handling problem.
But what you want to prove here?

Driving a SUV at 165km/hr on Indian roads is an invitation to disaster and cornering/overtaking adventures at such high speeds especially on curves are a MUST NO if you value the life of yours and other innocents on roads and NOT recommended at all on TAI.

P.S: RK, you still have a long way to go in photography, buddy.[embarass]:tongue:
At the same time hats off to you for the true enthusiasm of yours on cars and related meets.[clap]

Lets start with a curtain raiser pic.

Manoj, Sorry for the single sentence(my mistake). Please read it in 3 pieces. I wanted to convey that
1. Storme touched 165km for a while on a excellent 4 lane straight stretch. It was for a minute only, yes I agree on safety issue.
2. We crossed a XUV at 120 speed comfortably
3. There was a very long curve on the highway where we did not feel anykind of uncomfort and there was no need to reduce the speed(it was 120kmph)

Driving a SUV at 165km/hr on Indian roads is an invitation to disaster and cornering/overtaking adventures at such high speeds especially on curves are a MUST NO if you value the life of yours and other innocents on roads and NOT recommended at all on TAI.

P.S: RK, you still have a long way to go in photography, buddy.

Yes, Manoj, I am a newbie in photography and all my pics were with my mobile phone. Yes I am in learning mode and bear with my pics please. Thank you for the compliments

Hey friends, we had a quick and surprise meet in Hyderabad yesterday evening. Our member SanjaySG was in Hyderabad for some private work and we decided to meet. The meeting place was "Minerva Grand" at Hitec City, Hyderabad. Members joined were SanjaySG with his urban bronze storme, Vikyjoshi with his black storme, Rajiv9896 and my self in Rajiv's white Storme. So it was like a 3 storme meet yesterday. We really spent some good time discussing about Automobiles and our friends and had dinner. Thanks to our guest member SanjaySG and our fellow members viky and Rajiv. Few pics from the meet, sorry the pic clarity is not that good since they were from mobile and were night shots and traffic disturbance was there. Sanjay took some pics and hopefully he will post them once his is back to pune.

It was wonderful meeting SanjaySG, and ofcourse meeting RK, and Rajiv is always fun. As always, initiated by our very own RK Garu. He is brand ambassador for TAI.
It was really great to see 3 stormes of different colour in one place. That is still a rare sight.[;)]
Sanjay is absolutely a fun guy to be with. We had great time in Minerva Grand. Look forward to many such meets.

On a different note, can any one guess the colours of the storme in the last pic posted above?

@Vicky, thanks for making to be there even it was late, otherwise it could have been left with a Storme. Yes it is a rare sight to have 3 stormes together.

@Sbhokray, sorry buddy, we decided this meet at around 6 pm in the evening, so was a sudden meet, I could not inform our other friend zengetz too as it was a working day and he stay bit far from this place.

Sanjay has done a great sound set up with a simple box placed below the co passenger seat, the music outcome was awesome buddy. That steering cover also looks very nice.
