To my newly owned priced possession……




Very little did I know that this would happen so quickly. Since the month of September 2015  I have been doing all sort of market research and surveys to buy a second hand car (  was badly looking for a lucky deal ).  I had spread the word with some friends who I thought could be of help.


But somehow things never moved in the way until that day.  Like they say ,

 When its right its RIGHT”


One cold morning ,on the by-lanes where I  used to go for a jog, I came across this vehicle with a sign board saying For sale : contact  9321429007 .I vividly remember that instant , it was 7.15 AM and I dialed this number to try my luck. The phone was ringing on the other side but nobody seemed to answer the call.

 I was just about to hang up ( feeling disappointed) and the phone was answered.
I asked the receiver all sort of questions a FIRST CAR BUYER would want to know on that call itself.

I told him my budget and he was reluctant to offer me anything at that range .But he asked me to come to his store and meet him to see if other options could be worked out if possible.

I went for the first meeting with a friend. We were shown 2 -3 vehicles already beyond our range .That friend did a good job by checking the vehicle in all possible ways. We had a small discussion about the overall condition of the vehicle and we came back. 

We negotiated hard and closed the deal not by giving cash but by giving a WORD( after being satisfied the asset is good to own: though I was not 100% sure even then)
For them they believe a word is worthier and a million in rupees,



After moving out from there I was elated that I am moving closer to what I had anticipated. But there was a substantial amount of apprehension on my mind. This was because ,for the very first time I was planning for such a transaction ( BIG Money ) and that too without the complete knowledge of my parents.

I started mentally planning the expenses for the balance month ,  which account will be impacted, ways of convincing my hommies so on and so forth.

I would not be lieing when I am saying I could not sleep well that night . Frankly  I got up at 530 AM that morning and my mind denied to put me back to sleep.

By 7 AM I got up from my bed deciding to follow my schedule and went for a walk.  Well ,WALK was just a reason, I wanted to see what I had been thinking  all about the previous day.

I reached where the car was parked and went all along the periphery of the car to check if this is what I had closed the deal for.

Then on my way back HOME I pondered over it and then I was really  “HAPPY” and then this was the final emotion thereafter :D:D

Soon I began thinking and planning of parking space (Mind it , there is no parking space available in my building :D ) token amount (oops!! missed something IMPORTANT I had no license.  Be rest assured:  not even a learning license :D ) transfer documents etc. 



"Finally on the Christmas eve, the BLUE ALTO LXI  was brought home"
