The Black Bug-eyed Temptress

On 19th June, we bought our self a new Black Maruti Suzuki Swift after a wait of more than a month. The waiting could have been longer had I not logged a complaint at the Maruti website. The response after the complaint was quick and the showroom guy called up the next day and told us to take the car home (the same guy had told us to wait for another 3 weeks before logging the complaint).

Since the car arrived, I have been roaming around only in the city and was eagerly waiting for an opportunity to take the baby out on an open stretch. Thanks to the city traffic, driving in the 2nd and the 3rd cogs is the order of the day.4th and 5th are a dream. Finally, today we decide to visit the Raja Rajeshwara Swamy Temple at Vemulawada which is around 150 kms from Hyderabad. This was an opportunity for a nice photo session of the babe and also to check out its power.

Ahh, it didn’t disappoint me - the way it wafts at 3 digit speeds in overdrive, the stiff sporty suspensions which eat away curves with panache, the pickup and overtaking in lower cogs, the powerful AC, the stability at high speeds…the list goes on. I will let the pictures do the rest of the talking.

Yes, this post is dedicated to the babe-the star of the show. Don’t expect anything less :)
