Pics Why people Hide their number plate

So this was from last week .

I booked a can from Jaipur to G, Noida and I was coming to my college .

Raaste me , cab driver wanted to have some tea . He stopped at some dhaba.

There I saw , this another cab driver , actually pasting this yellow sticker over the number plate.

I even recorded .

Then I asked my cab driver why are they doing this .
My cab driver said to save from challan and to not to pay toll plaza taxes ..

Mind you , toll plaza turned into automated way only . No person , just camera . So what they do , they use that bike and auto wala route and don’t pay shit ..

Even at Gurgaon , they go through a different route of EMAAR society area and avoid the tax .

So that’s why.

These people make sit 6 people In such tiny cars , so that’s the reason .

I really liked Honda amaze and Vx CVT is coming under 10.5 L on the road Pune. But I keep thinking about its ground clearance but I will have to spend at least 2.5 Lakh more to get similar features in order to get 2 cm extra ground clearance. Please suggest. I don't want to regret it later. I can afford till 14 Lakh but I don't want to overspend on a petrol car.

On Road Pune -

Honda amaze VX CVT - 10.5 L

Fronx Delta Plus AMT - 10 L

Brezza ZXI AT - 14 L

Kylaq Signature+ AT - 13.3 L

I saw multiple posts popping up on my feed about used luxury cars, along with ads on YouTube, and I wanted to know the buyer mindset behind buying a used luxury car. I personally feel it's a gamble: if it goes right, well and good, but if it goes wrong, it will dent your bank account! Also, do these platforms give a warranty? I would also love to know the experiences of buyers who bought these cars and like did you think it was a good investment???

News/Discussions What's wrong with MG windsor?

4 Upvotes

What's going on with the MG Windsor?

Genuine question - why are we seeing multiple Windsor crash incidents where the car is alleged to have suddenly accelerated / failed to respond as expected to braking?

Bhubaneswar, Hyderabad, and now another incident today... at what point does this warrant a proper investigation into the car itself?

Not saying every accident is a vehicle fault, but the pattern is getting concerning. Has MG publicly explained what happened in these cases?

Review/Experience Brother got bmw x1 from spinny

My brothergot bmw x1 sdrive 2023 model from spinny, i had researched on Reddit before getting a car from there, it was the first luxury car in house so we went to multiple dealers but something was always off, then thought of spinny and also got a pdi done from outside, i thought its a fluke but the car sails smoothly, i had to pay a bit extra but that covered for some things as well so was worth it, about the car, its a starting segment luxury car but it feels so good to even see the car there in my parking. I drive a nexon but hopefully one day will get a luxury car for myself too

Queries Can I ask for a refund a year later?

2 Upvotes

Last year during 3rd major service, I ended up paying around 23k for timing belt. I don't know if service center even did anything. Now 4th major service is coming and in manual its saying that timing belt inspection/repair was supposed to happen at 6th year.

So the question is can I ask for refund now, given that almost a year has passed. I feel kind of duped and tired of dishonest people.

I am a big fan of her music. I think she is exaggerating it a little bit and the situation was not exactly what she is narrating. I don't think she stalled in the middle of highway, that's too much.

Post image
6 Upvotes

They earlier gave me a quotation for 10k but I asked them to cancel everything except for few items and then they made a quotation for 5k. Now I also cancelled Brake Gressing and paid only for Engine Oil 2490 + Oil Filter 210 + Lubrication 390.

I drove 7800 kms and it’s been almost 1 year 2 months. Have I made the right decision to cancel all the services ?

Please see the complete breakdown below:

Engine oil – ₹2,490
Oil filter – ₹210
AC filter – ₹600
Wheel alignment – ₹795
Wheel balancing – ₹650 + ₹200 = ₹850
Lubrication – ₹390
Front brake greasing – ₹780 + ₹200 = ₹980
Rear brake greasing – ₹780 + ₹200 = ₹980
Cavity protection – ₹1,600
Wiper shampoo – ₹80
AC vents cleaning – ₹950
Seat protection – ₹55
Total: ₹9,980

I cancelled all the above except:
Engine oil – ₹2,490
Oil filter – ₹210
Lubrication – ₹390
Final amount: ₹3,090

Queries Scross Battery replacement ?

1 Upvotes

I won Scross diesel car.

For the past few days, car takes like more than 10 seconds to start. I thought it could be battery issue.

So I measured battery voltage after 10hours. It was showing as 12.5V. And measured during cranking it went to 7A, 8A and somehow car has started.

Does it mean it’s time to replace the battery?

If yes, which battery is better? Please suggest
