Indian driving.....

finally back in indian roads.....

wanted to take car to workshop first before doing anything, but was forced to take the car on next day morning itself after landing in India.

and my car broke down in the busiest adyar junction, and that too on the rush hours. somehow managed to start car again after two minutes. had to suffer all the horns and curses from fellow drivers. and u cant imagine my plight. it again stopped two more times, but then i managed to enter a pocket road from the busy adyar junction.

Had no mobile and workshop numbers with me. So called my friend from a booth, and waited nearly for an hour before my friend came with the workshop guy. The guy told me no problem with the car. just raise the accerator so that valves get open up. he said i can drive home.

But my recent pasts have made me more cautious. I said i prefer to give it for full service. And then we were cruising through the 8 lane Taramani Road. ( I made him drive :) ), and then again the car troubles started. Luckily the workshop guy was able to switch the lanes fast and come to a bus bay before the car made a complete stop ( switching lanes is more easy in India!!!)

and then we had to wait for another one and half hour for the next workshop guy to come...... and the chennai heat has dried me up......

it took me 7000Rs to bring back Matiz's engine to be as smooth as before ( I changed a couple of things, and i dont know what they are for!!!!!). Its too much money for a 40,000 car !!!!!!!!!

I am still having bad lucks with car, or may be good luck as everytime I have nice escape.
