Autobiography of a Car

I am Ambassador,a car manufactured by Hindustan Motors. I have just been shipped from the facory to the dealer’s showroom. Here I will be kept on display till some happy customer comes and buys me. From where did it all start? Ah, yes I remember. My Company Hindustan Motors is an Indian automaking Company Despite its British origins, the Ambassador is considered as a definitive Indian car and is fondly called “The king of Indian roads] The automobile is manufactured by Hindustan Motors at its Uttarpara plant[1] near Kolkata, West Bengal.

Some prominent Indian politicians, such as Sonia Gandhi, use the Hindustan Ambassador.

But I am the favoured for my usage as a taxicab. Manufactured in an Indian company,Indians are known for their love and affection, so you can imagine the care and attention I got while I was being made in the factory. I could see tears in the eyes of my engineer parents, while seeing me off to the showroom.

India has one of the world’s largest automobile markets, and there is a lot of competition from rival cars. But I am no pushover. I have a sturdy engine which can challenge the best in business. I have a wide chassis which makes me very spacious and comfortable to travel in. I am originally based on the Morris Oxford series.

But above all, what makes me most desirable is my spacious interiors and sturdiness. I have a huge boot space for carrying luggage and very well suited for the bad Indian roads. I am usually yellow in colour and have black trimmings. But there are only two things that I fear. Firstly, I shudder at the thought that some irresponsible fellow who drives roughly and would not take proper care of me,would come to buy me. Secondly I might get involved into accidents because of this , damaging my looks and body. I do hope that I get the same love and affection from my owner and driver as I got from my engineer parents.
