Very True!!

The X5 and Touareg were spotted at the airport and the CRX at KNK street.

Sivasankar · 26th January 2010, 14:33

List of 750Ls I have seen...

1) Black - 3 (1 - seen at KNK Rd - NH Rd junction; 2 - Media baron's; 3 - don't know whose but carried a signature number)
2) Gold or silver (with a dented front grill and wheel arch) - 1
3) White - 1

That's 5, I don't think it can dislodge the S from its supreme position as the vehicle of choice in its league

My sister who goes to the same college as the Media Baron's daughter says she's seen 2 750Li's belonging to them. ( One is an older version, the other is new. ) The old one is dark green/black and the new one is black. They also have a maroon BMW which my sister says looks like the new 7er but she isn't sure. All three had the signature reg number.

yes they have both and the 5 with the ridiculous spoiler was posted by someone on this very own thread..its not only these 3 that have the same reg number even the murci and the bentley FS...

Karthik-zza · 26th January 2010, 20:32

Yes, I have seen the Murci as well. I will try getting pics of the garage, not sure if I will be allowed to post though. Sis says the maroon BMW does not have any obvious spoiler as of now. Is the 5er a maroon car? Or is there a 4th Beemer then?

I don't need to say who's car is this ,because very body knows it.
It's has been driven by our Honorable Minister when the pic was taken.

manishasrani · 26th January 2010, 22:15

This is the only car I regret not spotting during my visits to Chennai.

jagxf · 26th January 2010, 22:18

@sudan_nfs: sweet pics man!! the car is wild!!

theragingbull · 26th January 2010, 22:20

whoa...what a picture of the ferocious bull! Lamborghinis never have the model name written on the rear. How come this one has 'Murcielago LP640' written there?

ecksreturns · 26th January 2010, 22:28

Lamborghini does not write that from the factory. IMO , kinda a crass addition.

Look at those flared intakes!

I think this car can be spotted from IIT bridge to tidel park on sunday's but not sure when.
I am saying this because a earlier post was also in this same road.

arjunrudra · 27th January 2010, 08:33

Wow the lp looks so cool.Much needed photos of the LP. Long time since i saw it. I believe that was his gift to his daughter's birthday.
And i totally do not like the Lp640 sticker that has been added to the car makes it looks cheap.
I think he kinda stuck it so that people with a little knowledge on cars would not get it confused with the gallardo superleggera.
Anyways great find.
