That's a nice 6 series there.

Though the number plate is just an insult to the car. I guess it's every man's own opinion.

The owner also has a new bmw 7 series

amit V8 · 20th May 2009, 14:54

one of the greatest cars in kolkata. spotted this before but could not take the picture.

Err, no offence, but how does the lowest spec (1.6 ltr) car in the lowest spec model series (3 series) of BMW qualify to be the "one of the greatest" cars in the city?

To give it some credit, its one of the oldest BMWs thats been around in Kolkata. Much before the company originally set up shop here.

oh, never knew that. i'm not good in id.ing vehicles, also i thought it was fitted with a V6/V8, since it had a macho look with an awesome alloy.

Followed this vehicle from red road saw it enter a house in southern avenue. There was another exotic (was covered but was pretty much a sports car) and white a land rover defender. Sorry did not have my camera then.

For future reference, a quick way to roughly tell the engine size on a BMW is to see the two/three numbers after the series code. eg. 316i means a 3 series with a 1.6 liter fuel-injected I4 engine. A 745d is a 4.4 liter diesel V8 7 series.

This F430 Spider was spotted by premjit

Supercars & Imports : Kolkata-yellow-f430s.jpg

it looks more like a 360 though!

v12 · 8th June 2009, 10:36

Thats not a 430. Its a 360 Spider. Could be the ML regd Pune 360 or Spiderman's ecx-360 Spider.

planet_rocker · 8th June 2009, 10:41
