\nAs you all know, all fiat cars have lots of enthusiasts, be it of any age. There is one such fiat(premier padmini) lover, who’s just turned 16, and goes crazy while talking about the car and that’s none other than ME!!stupid:<\/p>\n

I have been having (actually my dad! lol) this car for the past 14 years , that is from 1996. When we shifted to chennai, my dad was in a dilemma. We wanted a car badly as all places are far away from the place where we stay and my mom had to do a lot of travel within the city. And my mom had got a liscense by around 1992 i guess. But she hasnt driven many times after that. So my dad decided that looking for a 2nd hand car would be better.<\/p>\n

So my dad began the hunt, and atlast shortlisted over 2 cars-1) A maruti 800 which was in a pretty good condition and the asking price was around 1.3 lakhs(dont remember the colour)
\n2) as u all can guess, the 2nd car is none other than the premier padmini, a 1989 model, grey colour, with grey seats and stuff( guess factory fitted) and nearly 35k-40k in the odo and was in a good condition. The the price quoted was 1.05 lakhs.<\/p>\n

due to certain financial constraints, (and also due to my luck) we opted for the fiat atlast.And i still feel how good the decision to buy the fiat was!<\/p>\n

From then onwards, the fiat became a part of the family. And we were enjoying each and every moment with it.
\n I still remember me and my sister having a fight for washing the car!:Frustrati
\n So much was the craze and love.<\/p>\n

As the days moved, here comes the first long drive in our beloved padmini…..(to be continued)<\/p>\n
