COCOONED AND SHELTERED, THIS IS THE FOUR-WHEELED DEAL

FLOOR IT

ALMOST AS ADDICTIVE AS A MOTORCYCLE

The Ignis had its holiday while I was off to Tibet for two weeks, and I had enough of off-road driving, so the second I got back, I set off in the little puppy. Boy, this car never fails to please. I filled the boot with luggage, and the rest of it with my family, and went for a long drive to a hill station. No complaints from my passengers. Mom is particularly fond of how it looks, externally as well as the interiors. My brother is a fan of how it sounds once you get the revs up. But none of them know the hooligan it can be, which is why I took it on a few work trips to Pune and back. Normally, ALMOST AS ADDICTIVE AS A MOTORCYCLE Koregaon Park is about 3-3.5hrs from my home. I was there in two. So there is nothing new to say, other than I would love to own this car. Ok maybe there is something new, the washer fluid pump seems to have developed an issue sometime back, and there is a weird clunk emanating from the front left suspension at very slow speed bumps, both of which I want to ignore, because I don’t want to part with the Ignis even for the short period it will need to get checked up, but I think I really should wise up and get it done. Sigh. Promise you’ll send it back Maruti?
