Hello to the Team-BHP Community

Hello everyone, and I am elated to be a part of the community which taught me the nitty-gritty of automobiles, especially cars. I even had the buying checklist of TeamBHP when I got my first car. I am a huge fan of TeamBHP travelogues and many road trips are inspired from them.

About me: I am 30 years old and a native of Cuttack, Odisha, and have been staying in Bangalore for almost eight years now. For two years, I had the most adventurous experience of staying in China and working there, which exposed me to a different working environment and most importantly, some quirky automobiles that hardly anyone would see outside of China. I am a huge fan of F1 and have visited one epic night/rain race in the Singapore GP.

My Garage:

Polo GT - Charcoal Grey - 2017
Story behind the purchase: I always aimed for BMWs/Ferraris and all the big guns since I was a big drooler for cars ever since I was a kid. But reality was I had to work hard to earn it. Hence, I bought what could be the best entry-level enthusiastic car, the Polo GT 1.2L Petrol. I would definitely call it a pocket rocket.

BMW 330 Li M-Sport - Carbon Black - 2023
Purchasing my dream car has been a long-awaited moment for me. As a child, I used to see my dream cars passing by and always wished to own them someday. After years of hard work and saving, I finally managed to fulfill my childhood dream. Purchasing this has been an incredibly fulfilling and memorable experience, one that I will cherish for a lifetime. I had never stepped inside a 250+Bhp car till now, and the day I drove it, I felt as if I am in a cockpit maneuvering a spaceship.

Re: Hello to the Team-BHP Community

Hello there,

First up that's a nice German garage you got there. The Polo GT and the 330Li, both awesome cars in their own the right. I too own a Carbon Steel Polo GT TSI from 2016 and its a joy to drive every time. Your Bimmer looks hot as well.

Would be interesting to hear about the China car scene from the 2 years that you stayed there especially the cars on sale in the country.

Hope to catch you you in some discussion around.

Looking forward to your threads.
