Hi Bhpians,

After couple of years long wait I am awarded membership for one of the most loving and respected forum. I remember i hooked this site while googling. I went through lot of posts related to car, bike, travel, on road experience and review. I decided to be a part of the same, and few years later here i am. So first of all, I would like to thank all of you who have enriched my knowledge about automobiles. Indubitably it feels pleasure and privileged to be a part of it. I would like to thank moderators who fulfilled my wish.
About myself; I am Rajesh Lives in Mumbai and I am an auto enthusiast. Professionally i am an engineer working in IT. I currently drive a 2008 Swift Dzire clocked 1,26,897 Km. I am just in love with my car. Just came back from a nice trip of LADAKH. It was team BHP travelogues (Especially Dushmish, HVK) that sparked my interest taking Dzire to ladakh terrains. I love travelling, photography and technology.

Auto History:
1. Suzuki Fiero from 2000 till date clocked 70,000 Km
2. Tata Indica V2 DLS from 2004 till 2006 clocked 57,000 Km
3. Tata Indica V2 DLX from 2006 till 2008 clocked 89,000 Km.

I am really looking forward to interacting with you guys here.

Many Thanks,
Rajesh

Kumar Thank you very much. Most awaited. Because of T-BHP threads (Humbleh'd I & II) I gained courage to go to Ladakh. When read thread by Dushmish i was dead sure that my dzire can do it. Till that time i was under impression that Ladakh terrain is such, that u need to have 4WD. But indeed i was wrong. I will always remember your advice to keep patience in any situation you are passing through. Believe me there were many ups and downs enroute Leh and nearby places and always remeber your advice and i cleared all those hurdles with flying colours. Whoever asks me how I drove in sedan that too without 4WD in those terrains. My answer is only one 'Patience'. Thats a keyword ( Gurumantra) if you wish your trips to be safe and successful.
