Was probably the first rag-top sports car I had ever seen in the flesh in India! Affordable, cute and sprightly!

That model of Celica came with a 1.6 litre 100hp engine.

@jagxf - New Year greetings!!!

Your XF was the first import I spotted this year... was standing by when you drove into the inner road of the Marina...

ecksreturns · 1st January 2010, 16:26

jagxf · 1st January 2010, 21:51

@sivashankar: happy new yr!! lol that is sweet. where were you at the beach?? and manish was not with me then met up with him a little later.

manishasrani · 1st January 2010, 22:03

Spotted this Audi A8L which looked really hot with these wheels !

ecksreturns · 1st January 2010, 22:12

Those are the RS4 rims! Sweet!

anekho · 1st January 2010, 22:57

wow, the otherwise dull A8 looks fantastic with those rims! Thanks Manish

@ Manish: Nice pics mate! The A8 looks really nice with its fancy rims.

Spotted over the last two days: a Vauxhall Frontera, a Land Rover Defender and a Nissan Pathfinder on Boat Club Road, an old-gen CR-V on Cathedral road, and an Audi A8L 4.2 in Anna Nagar. Couldn't take pics of anything execpt the CR-V. The Frontera, the Pathfinder and the CR-V were all consulate cars. Also, I'm spotting too many Land Rovers in Chennai nowadays. Not that I'm complaining though

Those wheels do look very nice but somehow, they don't suit the car! The A8 is a stately and majestic yet very understated car you see!

Maybe I should see it in the flesh but I've always fancied the wheels you see on the A8 W12. (Movie: Transporter 2)
