Thread: Premier Padmini

This is the car i love to drive on a highway,

I have implemented some modifications in it.
1) Silencer - I have changed it to sports silencer which will make roaring sound.

2) Engine piston size - I dont know what exactly is changed here, my cousin is a automobile engineer he made some changes to the piston size and now its giving much more torque than ever before.

This is the last model which Fiat has released in this segment which is known as S1 engine. Its fit with CNG too and Un-believably i have driven this car at the top speed of 135 k's / hr from hubli to belgaum.

here is the car



Even though i have another Swift i love to drive this more than swift

I say this is a Ever green car.

maintain it well and u might even be able to enter it in the vintage car rally in a few years.......

Its not so old to enter that my dear, it has been manufactured in 1998 its just 10 years onld now not like those taxi we see of 40 or 50 yrs old

remember there was a Premier 118NE a long time back?
was that also a Fiat derivative? I fondly remember a
friends car (especially the back seat) ;-)

-F

Both Premier Padmini and 118NE were older Fiat models.
Just as M800 is a old suzuki model and the godd old Ambi is the Moris Major.

Yes it was also of Fiat itself, It was lanched to compete with Contessa classic...
At that time contessa was like limo for us

yeah one of my relatives still use the 118 NE....hes kind of reach (petrol pump owner & can afford any car upto 1million Rs)...but he still drives this thing, coz he love it.

@kk, do you get the spares of this car?

I think most roadside shops have "original duplicate" spares for premiers and ambis.

most of the parts i get imported from bombay.. and some things which we dont get, my mechanic is pro trained at Fiat company in those times so he knows every bit of it and alters something and uses it.

I learnt driving on this car.
