Hey!

MMK2210 · 29th May 2009, 00:09

Hey guys!

I'm Musa Khan and I hail from Dhaka, Bangladesh. I was actually born in Meerut, India (a city/town 2 hours away from Delhi) and descend from a Nawab family there. I'm lucky enough to be born in a family full of die-hard car fanatics. As you may've already guessed I'm very much into cars as well, especially Classics. My father himself owns a 1968 MGB Roadster since '84 that has been standing still for the past 5-6 years. However it'll be undergoing full restoration in the near future as planned. My father also owns a 1991 Toyota Corolla AE91 which has been slightly customized by me according to my own taste. It uses a 5A-FE that has been left pretty much stock except for a K&N high flow air intake that replaces the stock OEM air filter and a little bit of sporty detail including a custom front grille, badges/decals, pin striping, chrome muffler tip etc.

This is all for now, though I can go on and on! I don't wish to waste any more of your precious time. I hope I get to know you people and of course about some of the best cars in India.

Regards,

Musa.

Welcome Musa.. Salam Ailakum!

Hows the weather there? All OK I guess. I am originally from Kolkata and mom had old time friends over there.
