Do or Die

I liked the budget of the car, looks, mileage and servicing and maintenance, also the interior and speed of the car, when I went for bye they were taking care of me and carefully they delivered my car.

Wonderful experience

A great driving experience I had with the Jeep Compass. Either off-road or smooth road, you will feel great comfort next to luxury. Smooth drive even on rough stretches. Loaded with a variety of features.

2023 Tata Harrier Facelift First Drive Review

By Jay Shah14 Oct 2023

We have finally driven the new Tata Harrier to tell you about our driving impressions.

Mercedes-Benz B-Class Edition 1

By Selvin Jose31 Dec 2014

After moving about elegantly in the B-Class for around a month Ninad offered me the car and I gleefully accepted. I was a little worried on how it will fare in my hands, will my first Mercedes-Benz long term car experience shine or wither away? While I did remember a brief drive during one of our photo shoot sessions that left me impressed with it, at the other end I honestly didn’t know how it would fare as an everyday commuter.

Mercedes-Benz B-Class Long Term Report 1

By Ninad Mirajgaonkar29 Nov 2014

The first time we reviewed the Mercedes-Benz B-Class with PowerDrift, we talked about it as luxury yet value-for-money proposition. Now after using the MPV for over a month and 3,000km, we have a lot more to add.
