My Ride – Mahir Majid’s Hyundai i20

Mahir Majid is a regular reader of Indian Autos Blog and when we heard he was going to buy an i20, we immediately asked him to give his account of buying and experience. His car is hardly a week old and we’ve quizzed him comprehensively and his first impressions should help you decide whether this is the car for you.

When did your passion for cars begin?

I have been passionate about cars since childhood. Dad owned a Toyota Cressida 1984 and then a Honda accord 1986 which was used for a good 13 years and then got a 2007 dodge charger which he still drives. I have driven all the above.

Here in India mom got me a 1995 Maruti 800 for familiarizing me with the Indian road manners and then finally moved over to the Hyundai i20.

When did you buy the i20?

I had booked the Hyundai i20 end of January and got the delivery after almost 50 days on 7th may 2009.
