I was driving to work this morning when at the Jahangir Hospital signal I noticed an odd looking car 4-5 cars in front of me. It looked almost BMWish but was not a BMW. On closer inspection I noticed it had a red UP plate and no badges.

Intrigued, I tried to catch up but traffic is pretty heavy even at 8:30 AM. I finally managed to catch up with it at the RTO signal. I took a few I edged around it and the moment I saw the side profile I realized it was the new City.

By now the driver had realized I was taking pictures and gesticulated at me. I smiled and give him a ‘thumbs up’ and mouthed ‘cool car’.

He started edging forward and I stayed alongside him, even though the light was red we soon found ourselves in the middle of the intersection. He took off before the light changed to green, I followed, he then dramatically slowed and came to a stop in front of the Indian Airlines office, I stopped as well. He then accelerated frantically, it took me a second or two to react but I raced after him, at the end of Sangam bridge he pulled a screeching u-turn (ok it wasn’t quite screeching, but it was very aggressive :) ) I duly followed.

As we approached the RTO signal he was in the right lane alongside the divider and I was alongside him, he tried to intimidate me by turning into me, but I held my ground and at one point my mirror was less than an inch from his door. The light was red so he had to stop; I managed to get in front of him and managed to click a couple of pictures.

At this point I decided to disengage, he was driving very aggressively and I figured it wasn’t worth getting into a confrontation.

I will format and post the pictures later today.

EDIT : Your pictures have been uploaded to the first post too! Thanks!

Good catch and chase but you should be careful, they are driving a test vehicle but your is not :)

Waiting for the pictures, do not forget to put small watermarks before posting.

Thats awesome. Since you have taken so much efforts in clicking the snaps, you should send those photographs to ACI. Waiting for photogrpahs...

Most test cars are not driven that aggressively. "They" would normally risk a few spy pics than damage.

Risky and Good job awarty. Waiting for the pictures, Should we call it as a NHC or NNHC or HC08/HC09 :)?
