Apparently, this little car is the cheapest one available in India (without all the bling that is)Someone, in their great wisdom, decided to commission some genuine goldsmiths and a couple of real-macoy jewellers to 'decorate' this 'cheapest in all of India' car as a publicity and promotional stunt. This particular version is now worth a couple of million and is covered from bumper to bumper (and all the bits in between) with genuine gold and jewels! The general hope is that the car will be perceived to be much more up market and their sales will skyrocket! One of our esteemed continuity gentlemen on NZ television - after reporting on this story - harkened back to a quote which the author may or may not have used in these ramblings before, which reads,"you can't polish a turd, but you can roll it in glitter"
Dis al!
