      Same here. For a time I can remember manged  for 10 days with only Rs.1000 worth of petrol. Somehow last afternoon I could get a tank full. Going  by the above calculation that should last a whole month now! :D.

      They're not classified as passenger cars, thus they won't be allowed on the highway. Get ready for lots more darwin award nominations.

      hahaha... reminds me of the the movie "Basic Instinct 2"... I put myself into Catherine Tremmel's shoes where a similar incident taking place and at the end the Psychiatrist goes insane and he was sent to a institution where he was treated as a patient :D

  7. Tesla Model 3 is coming..

  8. Does CVT feels constant acceleration ?

      hrm

      Yes. Kick down happen as normal. How the car accelerate and shift gears is some what vague I must say. It might feel awkward at first.

    3. terrabytetango

      terrabytetango

      not constant acceleration, but there's no gear shifts so th engine RPM stays more or less in the same place while the car speeds up. It won't feel any different, just smoother. If you've ever ridden in one of the new 8 speed bmws, the experience is very similar.

    4. terrabytetango

      terrabytetango

      Also there is no kickdown, the engine RPMs increase that's all.

  9. Have you recently checked the CV boots. One of myne have come off. A simple fix costs me a Full CV joint.

    1. terrabytetango

      terrabytetango

      Yeah you can't get them separately. I was lucky in getting CV joints with CV boots intact.

      Well some of these statements won't stand up in court. You cannot charge a person for speeding if you cannot provde speed. You can charge them for reckless driving of course or driving without due care. Another thing I noticed was something dependent on a IGP circular. This is the first time I heard that the IGP can implement policy such as arming police officers. I do not think that will stand up to legal scrutinity either. That has to be Gazzetted (it might already exist and the IGP mig...

      Many of the traffics cases if challenged could be won in favor of the motorist. But who would dare do it?
