That's our machine..

So finally we are in possession of something really great. Our new car, Hyundai i20..!! We had booked this car a month ago, but because of its huge demand, we got it delivered a bit late. It took us with disappointment, but the whole idea of buying something that is in good demand, made me happy. We had tried number of cars as suggested by Divya (after her careful research) but as we stepped into this car, our decision was almost instantaneous. Next, we compared every car with i20 and found our choice the best.
.
Now-a-days the cars are getting hi-tech and exuberant. We can find all sorts of auxiliaries encompassed in small cars that you don’t have to struggle a bit. Some of them that I found exciting in i20 were: cigarette lighter (which I don’t use obviously), USB port (my little mp3 player was happy to see this), interior defogger (no more swiping the wind shields with cloth during rains or winters), music controls on the steering (that makes the driver THE KING), electronic adjustable OVRMs (side mirrors that are operated from inside, so no more adjusting the mirrors during rains), outside temperature indicator and control in AC (and the AC is really chilling) and aesthetic dashboard (that was our point of decision) to name a few..!!! It had good power and smooth ride that makes your journey very comfortable. For more technical details, you need to contact my analyst wife. 75% of our decision to buy this car is attributed to her.

It was late evening that we had reached the KUN Limited where our vehicle was ready for being driven. After completing all the formalities (basically all the payments), we were shown our dream in front of us, the shiny, sparkling, brand new i20, beautifully decorated with ribbons..!!! I had good time with an instructor explaining me the operations of the car. I was almost half bothered about the instructions at that moment (and I realized its importance the very next day..!!!). The beautiful keys of the car were then handed over to us coupled with a box of chocolates, a file folder and a bash of firework. We had clicked some of our pics with the car, but those expressions were half the volume that we were feeling within.

It’s been quite some time that we were looking forward to buy a car but this time we actually made it. First it was our marriage anniversary, than summers and finally it went till monsoons. Good that we made it before heavy monsoon..!! It’s such a big car that we almost feel like moving in a castle, secured from outside world. Now when we drive our car back from work amid heavy rains, we did realize what angel we possess..!!

Thank GOD for giving us the strength to buy a car before we grow old..!!!
