Happy New Year Friends! Wish you a fantastic year ahead.

Although a frequent visitor, I am posting in the forum after a really long gap of 14 years. Seeing all the beautiful pics, I couldn't resist sharing mine this time.

Here's some clicks of my Grand Vitara through the last year.

Brilliant pics. Especially the Mud-coated Gypsy. Is there a BTS video available ?

This is my fav click of the car, took out the car after ages on highway after lookdown. Click by one of my friend, set the camera for panning and he clicked like 50+ shots in 4-5 passby , finally i selected this shot, all corrections and changes were done on photoshop myself.

My recently acquired Love

[streetfighter]

2021 was a balanced year for me personally. With a heavy heart, I had to let go of my first love "Fiesta 1.6S". And welcomed the C5 Aircross with a long drive from Mumbai to Jaisalmer and Jodhpur in Dec end.

Bye bye sweetheart

Probably not the best pic but definitely my favourite car pic of 2021 and one that is very close to my heart.

It is Infact the very first pic I took of my Compass before finalizing the variant and colour

I was lucky that there was a cancellation that allowed me to book one of the last available 80th anniversary editions.

Because WFH, I've actually had a lot more time to spend driving my car around than 'normal'. I'd say my annual usage was 7k miles pre-Covid, which shot up to 10-11k during Mainly because I spent a lot more time in the car with road trips, and exploring the Bay area beyond what I knew of it. This set of pictures is from my favorite spots in California to drive up to (and click). All images from a Samsung S10+ or Fold3.

I spend a LOT of time in my car as well as taking pics of it, so I had to work down this list. I'm also going to cheat a little and include a couple pics from before 2021, since I'm back on the forum after years!

I had this 335i for a brief period in 2020. Not a spine-friendly car and certainly not good for bumpy urban road. I thought I would never run a car with 30 profile tires again.



But the GTI runs 30s and 35s and is perfectly comfortable. Truly a remarkable all-rounder. I get the YouTube reviews now - this is really all the car that one ever needs, for anything, ever. I think in Alltrack body with AWD, it would be unassailable. Mine is pre-owned, fully stock, and the Sport trim launched for a hot second in 2017 to clear residual MK7 stock - a truly flawless trim with everything I need and not a single thing I don't.









Saved this one for last. Minimum quality, but maximum feels.



Here is the reference

On my way to NCR from Pune on my XPulse, to participate in Rally Of Chamba.
Always wanted to ride on Yamuna Expressway and finally got the chance to.



Capturing sunrise, just before Dewas.
One of the few stops during a non-stop drive from NCR to Pune, to make it in time before another lockdown starts.

Fiero doing a bit of trail riding, trying to make up for XPulse missing from garage.



My first longish ride on STriple to Naldurg fort, to catch up with old riding friends.
