In a previous post I noted the almost complete disappearance of the venerable Hindustan Ambassador from the Indian streets. Although the fumes they spout
are horribly vile, they do have a certain charm and I was secretly hoping that there were still a few in Kolkata, just for old times sake.
Thankfully Mumbai has its own reminder of the charms of pre-economic liberalization India roaming its streets, the Premier taxi cab. Every normal cab in Mumbai is one of these rusty little guys, now running on CNG.
The look of a street full of them, with the English buildings makes you think you are in Austin Powers II.
