Chennai, Sunday,
July 22, 2007:
She came, she
steered and she
conquered many a
hearts…Chennai
had an unusual
date with the
roving steel
beauties of
yesteryear, with
several vintage
cars and
motorcycles
cruising through
the city's roads
in a rally
organized
jointly by MyTVS
and Madras
Heritage
Motoring Club on
Sunday, July 22,
2007. In what
looked like a
royal parade of
the yesteryear
beauties, the
old and classic,
brimming with
style and grace
took on Chennai-ites
with a bang. |

Chennai roads
saw vintage cars
roll in with all
their splendour
when owners of
glamorous
vintage cars
proudly paraded
their beauties
at this rally,
which began from
Don Bosco
School, Egmore,
and traversed a
5-km route
passing main
thoroughfares of
Chennai. This is
the third
edition of the "MyTVS
Heritage Car
Rally". |
| |
|

MyTVS, a brand
that stands for
'Relationship
and Trust'
rightly
associated
itself with the
Heritage car
rally, which
symbolizes a
relationship
between the car
and its owner.
The rally aimed
at stressing the
need for
preserving and
building passion
for these cars
as a sign of our
traditional
symbols. |

This year's
rally saw
mesmerizing old
beauties like
Singer, Packard,
Citreon, Buick,
Vauxhall,
Morris-8, Dodge,
Austin,
Studebaker and
Plymouth take on
the roads of the
city. Here
winning is not
as important as
the pride and
joy of owning
these vintage
cars. Owners
take great pride
when their
priced
possession takes
the central
stage and
becomes others
envy.
Interestingly,
one notes that
these beauties
are still in
peak running
condition, and
are also hired
out for special
occasions,
rides, incentive
parties, or
marriages. |
