We meet the owner of historical 1956 Mercedes-Benz 190D in Gwalior (1)

Ashok Chandak

Industrial Gases Manufacturer

Why this brand: I tried for Morris and other cars but this Mercedes-Benz W121 (190D) is 100 percent original and it was imported by TELCO on 1 January 1961. TATAs later sent the car from Mumbai and left it in Gwalior.  Registration was then transferred to my name. I have always loved something which is special. I love travelling; I have visited South East countries, Germany, Japan, almost every continent, with such extensive travelling I developed a taste for vintage cars and stuff. I keep buying parts for the car whenever I am in Germany.

Dream Car: I always loved Mercedes and I drove lots of them in Africa. After buying 190D (Mercedes-Benz W121) friends of mine who love Mercedes say you have hit a sixer in vintage cars!

Next Car: Most likely to be a BMW Isetta.

You like most while driving this car: When people stare the car and admire it.

Message: Try to be submissive and be good to others!
