... i woke up to a rather cold morning... and a peek out of the window made my heart sink... it rained in the nite and there was no neela aasman ... what made the matter worse? it was so dark that i had to check at three different places for the correct time... and i had to dust out my brolly and take it along to office...
... now how many times in a day it happens that u have to confront ur different fears? ... mebbe once? ... so when SRW called me to arrange for keys of Scorpio mHawk and Xylo to take some photographs (for yet another presentation) ... i was mildly thrilled... however when he asked me to drive down to J block to pick him i was wildly thrilled!! ... Scorpio mHawk from the sandwiched parking and awl the way to J block in the rain?? ... "are u sure?" i asked him and he burst into laughter...
... it was not just my prestige and pride and ego and reputation it was all that of ERC as well! ... so i mustered up the courage and crawled towards mHawk... after spending 5 minutes to make my driving position most commanding and going through the dashboard for the controls and after checking everything (it was one of the longest 5 minutes in TML!) ... i twisted the key fob and what happened in next 2 hours or so left the gulabjamun i took in lunch all shaken and stirred and me wanting for more... it was a sheer pleasure driving that beast and now i know why Mahindra is able to sell this monster so quick and so well...
... there is enough power to push you back in the seat contour once you press the feather lite accelerator and that is not enough... the steering is smooth and the vehicle responds fairly quick ... frankly speaking... i never liked the shape (or should i say the styling?) of Scorpio ... however after seeing Xylo i must admit mHalk is a stunner (no pun intended!) ... so while i try to pacify the rain God (or Goddess?) and snuggle in my bed with my lappy running some Barjatia epic ... you enjoy Her blessings ... :)
