Uddhav in the past lane: Classic cars put on a show in Mumbai

Rediff.com   31 Jan 2021

Vintage car lovers were in for a treat on Sunday as four-wheelers from the past rolled down the streets of Mumbai's Bandra-Kurla complex. The event is one of the installments of the Mumbai Festival held by Things2do & Maharashtra tourism department, which is organising various events to boost the city's tourism and provide the best experiences to the Mumbaikars. This Vintage Drive in partnership with Vintage and Classic Car Club of India and Western India Automobile Association saw over 200 vintage cars and bikes participating in the event -- a 20-kilometre long stretch from BKC to Ballard Pier in south Mumbai. To kick off this event, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray rolled in with style, who drove himself to the venue. And from what we could see, the CM is an auto-enthusiast himself, taking in the sights.
