Hello from Hyderabad

R18A · 21st September 2007, 13:21

Joining in from Hyderabad.
Planning to buy a Civic, an awesome car in my opinion. Trying to work out the finances right now.

Found this forum on a bumper sticker and from then on, there was no looking back, one of the best managed online forums, I must say!
Kudos to all the moderators...

wellcome to team-bhp.

it would be great if you could tell more about yourself. This is a intro thread right???
P.S. What should we call you??? R18A sounds more like a honda engine. (Is it a civic's engine???)

Hi R18A. Welcome to tbhp. When are you getting your civic and what do you drive now?

Did you mention tbhp bumper sticker? I think the only two cars that have these stickers in Hyd are my red Palio and Mobike's Red Viva CRDi.

Well, I drive a maruti 800 at present.

I am in my early 30's. Car's have always interested me, however could never spend so much time into it, till now. This forum is such a blessing and is so addictive...

I have test driven all the cars in that (Civic's) segment and few from even higher segment. In my opinion there is no close competitor to it in the overall package, the car just rocks.

Unfortunately I am here with 7-8 lakhs of budget and still need to manage another 5 lakhs before I go for it.
Nah, I won;t settle for an SX4 or an Optra, Civic is just a class apart, I would wait and stretch to acquire one for me

Right KKr2k2, R18A is the Civic's engine.
I chose that name because my name is already taken up, and I am so amazed by the engineering of this engine.

Thanks GTO for pointing out, I have read the policy rules.

Satish, I do not remember the vehicle, but faintly remembered the website. Some googling helped me get to the right place.

RA, Welcome Aboard. Do tell us something more about you. Like whats your name and what you do for a living etc.

As Satish mentioned about the sticker, its only mine and his car in Hyderabad that has them. Maybe i drove you to this website as my sticker is little more consipicious as its bang on the windshield in big letters

Whoever it was, we are glad to have you here and look forward to catching up with you in the next Hyd tbhp meet !!!!
