SLK230 spotted in Kochi by a friend.

Is that an aftermarket exhaust tip? Looks really ugly IMO. Totally spoils the look of the car!

I love the earlier generation SLK,but those turbine style alloys dont suit this car.
Lovely i20!

Anand123 · 22nd March 2010, 02:18

I liked those alloy wheel design even though they doesn't suite that car. A 5-spoke alloy would have looked much better.

Same here . Love the alloy's on the Merc . And the 120 also looks mean. Has got that gangster look. Love it.

BMW 6-Series became my favorite Beemer when I first explored it during my driver training program conducted by BMW way back in 2007!

Y'day I again had a blast with the new 650i in the city. It was really a refreshing experiance to drive this beast. The throttle really click the enthusiast in anyone! In sport mode its one of the most exciting cars to drive. In normal drive its a good city car too, thanks to active steering.

As agreed my friend came to pick me & we went to the famous Calicut beach for our blast. We had few round through the good stretch of beach road. Then we had some photo shoot. After that we went to pick our mutual friend & went for another blast. I had a real blasting Sunday y'day!

Your friend seems to have a really nice collection of cars. Porsche and BMW's. Nice germans. The 6 looks nice.

manishasrani · 22nd March 2010, 10:45

@Hani , nice pictures there

You have forgotten to edit the plates in a couple of pics.
This car was in B'lore until a few months back.

Unknownsatan · 22nd March 2010, 11:33

Nice pics there Hani. Ya should have tried clicking more snaps on Koyikkodu beach

Anand123 · 22nd March 2010, 11:48

Nice pics Hani. Thanks for sharing. It looks good but, I didn't like those wood inserts in the centre console.

Love the snaps bro, especially the ones shot inside AT's home. Looks really good in black and in the interior trip is also too good. Only drawback i see is the Old gen gear selector,not that it is not good, bu the new one is magnifico. As manish said, you forgot to strike the plate in some pics and lost the whole point of striking the rest

Anyways, Keep em coming !

I think the 650 belongs to some other garage, and they just visited the guys home. The Cayenne owner just recently added the Silver Carrera Cabrio and i doubt if he would this soon go for another one. I could be wrong as i haven't received a word from hani yet

I came to beach yesterday evening expecting a 650i showdown. I think i was late. Does the car belongs to the cayenne owner?
