On the December 5, 2010, I was at JK Tyre Constitution Club Car Rally!
Cars are necessity these days, but the luxury element associated with it leaves me wondering which one I want. Don't you find a feeling associated with each of the kinds. So what do you like? An SUV, a small compact one, a sleazy limo or a convertible! I am sure we have many novice here! Let me take the opportunity to help you with the task. Also with each of the types of cars, I will share what feeling I associate with it!
CONVERTIBLE
Open roof or closed one, its your choice to either fold the roof or detach it! Some of the renowned convertibles are Ford Mustang, Dodge Avenger and Pontiac Sunfire!

So what is the feeling that comes to my mind, when I think about riding on this one? Its look is dusky, classic and showy!
Dumping all the water sport equipments and accessories. Hitting the road on a high speed, loud music with my girl gang on a sunny morning. Sunbathing and playing volleyball at the beach with my girlfriends, guys can join us at the other end of the net!
COUPES
A small two door car, with a roof inclined towards back! Some of the famous coupe models in market today include the Bentley Continental GT Coupé and Aston Martin DBS. Those sitting on the back seat may have to slouch!
Jaguar XKE E Type Coupe 1964 |
On a highway to Las Vegas. What strikes me is the guys gang heading to Las Vegas in the Hollywood flick The Hangover! So had Doug Billings would be father in law did not offer him to take the BMW, they could considered the one in right!
Anyways when it comes to me, I will be more than happy to take a ride with Bradley Cooper to ofcourse Las Vegas. Other hunks can join us at the back seat! :p
HATCHBACKS
The USP of hatchbacks is the ample cargo space and a large door to tuck in all your luggage. The cargo space of these medium sized cars is accessible from the rear seat, most popular hatchback models include Audi S3, Geo Metro and Dodge Caliber. Tata Nano is a compact hatchback!

Lets go back to the times of When Harry Met Sally . Sally could offer to give Harry a ride to New York from the University of Chicago in this one as well.
Coming back to me, given the tough and classic look, I would want to participate in a car rally in this one. I wish the silencer in this one does not exist!
SEDANS
These cars range from mid-sized to large models, and typically feature two rows of seats. Being considerably large, they provide ample space for people who occupy the rear seat as well. Toyota Camry and Ford Taurus are popular medium sized sedans, while Ford Crown Victoria and Buick LeSabre are popular large sedans available in the market. Maruti Swift is a compact sedan!
Being spacious, a family car, I may also drive from across India with my family. It goes with the rural India look, it also maintains a rustic city look.
This one can also accompany me if I plan to visit all the pilgrimages acros India!
MINIVAN
These mid-sized cars provide ample space for passengers, as well as cargo transportation. Some of these multi-utility vehicles (MUVs) are four wheel drive, while some offer seats which can be folded as to convert the passenger car to a utility vehicle. The popular ones are Dodge Grand Caravan, Volkswagen Routan and Kia Carnival. Maruti Omin also falls in this category.

Well the one on right for me defines a trip to Rishikesh for river rafting. Its spacious and family and friends can drive!
SPORTS / SPECIAL UTILITY VEHICLE (SUV)
Jeep Patriot 2008 |
Mini van can replace an SUV, so I will again go for a family picnic with my family
SPORTS CAR
These are power packed two seater cars, which are designed to derive the maximum fun of a speedy ride. Their prominent features include a muscular engine and sleek looks, based on the laws of aerodynamics. They may seem to be a bit expensive, but these cars are meant for people who don't like to compromise with power and looks.
Detomaso Pantera 1971 |
I can be on a racing track with my man. I cannot compromise on speed, so this one is the right choice for a non stop expedition.
I would prefer something open roof.. As it is a sports car, I would like to dress up in long shoes, denim jacket and shorts... Curled hair and a cowboy hat!
STATION WAGONS
These are also known as estate car, whose body style varies from sedan/saloon with its roof extended rearward over a shared passenger/cargo volume with access at the back via a third or fifth door (the liftgate or tailgate), instead of a trunk lid.

GYPSY
There is nothing that can touch a Gypsy off the road! We will take the ride from the archaic leaf springs all round is horribly bumpy and the interiors are utilitarian as well.
The best picture fits in my mind about this car!
GYPSY
The word Gypsy reminds me that I long to meet my Gypsy boy! I almost forgot about it!
Maruti Suzuki Gypsy |
The guy has to have a Gypsy, and it can be our accomplice! No matter where I go, be it Jim Corbett or Leh Laddakh! I want to experience the thrill of open roof, tough ride on a Gypsy!

VINTAGE
The entire discussion about cars is not complete if I don't mention the vintage collection. I love them, wish to possess one!
As I wish to possess one, I had this opportunity to get myself clicked next to this ! Although I don't know which model it is, I would be extermly grateful to someone who cam help me find the name of this model. This exotic beauty brings a feeling of class.
I wish that I have a celebrated feeling of becoming an owner of such an exotic beauty
The best picture fits in my mind about this car!
Ford Mustang 1967 |
On this open roof with a vintage look, I would want to drive it on a highway running across a sea. I would want someone special to accompany me.
With a sheer fact that I am a big foodies, I would love to park this and have boiled fish with a pinch of salt and squeeze some lemon on it! Sipping in coconut water while riding on this wagon will be the best bet! Yuuuuuhooo!!

Author's Note: I have deliberately chosen the classic version of most the cars for you all to view on my blog. The newer ones are already gracing the roads.
