Iggy, model

nMy first car was an Omni that I bought at 19 with my own money. But my first vehicle was a bike. I had a crush on this girl and wanted to go to her home on my own bike to impress her because in college she used to ignore me. So I bought an Enfield from money that I’d earned working at the Taj in Goa. I later sold it and bought a Hero Honda Splendour as I wasn’t earning much and needed to buy a more economical bike. Then, since I used to do parties and had my own sound equipment, I bought an Omni in Goa. I didn’t think I’d be able to afford a car so soon so it was very satisfying. But then I moved out of Goa and sold it.

I love bikes and really fast cars but I don’t like very sophisticated cars, I like the sportier, more rugged ones. In Delhi, it’s difficult to drive a bike what with the dust and all so I’ve got a Tata Indica that I’ve been driving for the last three years and am very happy with ? it gives me a mileage of 20km, which is quite abnormal.
