Joy Ride
Sachin's car made me miss my '89 Corolla. He tells me that this Maruti Suzuki model is one of the best cars to own in Delhi because it's one of the smallest. They are made mainly in India, I believe, and Suzuki is by far the most popular car make (aside from the rickshaws) that you see on the road. Down in the south of the country I noticed a lot of regal looking white cars (with enormous interiors) called Ambassadors. They are typically used as cabs now. We barrelled through traffic in this guy and Sachin told me that his left leg often aches when he gets home from his hour commute because he's had to work the clutch so much in traffic!

Hi Phillipa,
Was just through your blog and came across this beautiful Note. I reminded me of the great time spent with you when you came at ICC. It's also special to me because this was my first car and I had a special emotional attachment to it. I sold it this January and now own a Suzuki Swift but I still miss the fun I had with my Maruti 800.
Regards,
Sachin Sharma
