Trip to Dhanushkodi – Day 1

September 1st, 2010 by Rider | 1 Comment | Filed in Cars, Travelogues

Day 1: The Preparation

One fine evening I got a call from my brother “We are going for trip to Dhanushkodi. Are you interested…? “. At that point I didnt knew what or where Dhanushkdodi was. Kenney (brother) told me that he is going from Ernakulam to Trivandrum and we can start the journey from Trivandrum. That day I packed my bags and went with him to Trivandrum.

Trip with Lancer

Our Lancer

We started the journey to Trivandrum at about 11 pm (Kottayam and Trivandrum is about 200km apart). The 10 year old Mitsubishi Lancer (my brother`s) which had a mileage of 2 Lakh kilometer performed like a war horse.I have realy thank mitsubishi for a very nice vehicle like this. Even though the car was 10yrs old, she was performing like a brand new car even better than our new Ford Ikon. In the Erattupetta-Ettumanoor road we touched speed of 100km/hr. We couldn’t maintain that speed because our cars light was not that good and vehicles coming opposite to us was not dimming their light. Upto Chenganoor we had the problem of bad roads and reckless drivers, after Chenganoor the roads where good. By good I mean that it was well maintained with no gutters, wide and with all the reflectors in place. In that strech I was able to get the maximum output of our car and it was touching 130 to 120 km/hr (sorry bro you were sleeping). Lancers suspension is so well designed that even at 120km/hr it didnt had had any vibes and i was able to go through the curves easily. Around 12.30 AM we stopped at Adoor for a small tea break. 12.45 we resumed the journey; rest of the journey was smooth. We reached Trivandrum around 3.00AM.

Mercedes Benz E class was launched a new Cabriolet

September 1st, 2010 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Cars

The word Cabriolet is actually a cart that drives by one horse and has a convertible top. In  the same sense, Merc Benz took the old name and redesign the same and create a new convertible E class.   Cabriolet is a convertible sedan with four doors but the convertible roof is not made in metal. The conversion need around 20 seconds. The company brought the car at Delhi and this is the 7th model of E class and the company will have a good expectation from the Cabriolet. One of the main advantage of Cabriolet is that it is able to avoid the air friction by creating an imaginary air separator on its roof with the function of an air friction buster. The technical features and specifications are,
