"Sir, will everything be ok with my job? It's just that I was speaking to one of the other drivers at the club, and he told me that his boss told him that your business is not going so well. When I asked the other driver how his boss would know, he asked me why my boss would drive a 8-year old car if all was well?"

"Dheeraj? Hi, it's me Kalyan. Could you possibly spot me 20,000 rupees. I am trying to pay the deposit on a new Swift, and I've managed to raise around 50,000 between my dad and after breaking my fixed deposit account. I can get the rest of the amount financed by the car dealer. I can get it back to you in a 3 months."

"Hmm Hmm HMM Hmm Hmm Hm Hmmmmm? Huh? Oh I was just mumbling the tune of that car jingle I heard. I can't get it out of my head. Not sure what the name is.... it's the cute little one that Shah Rukh Khan advertises."

"I think your car is good enough to be in the movies, as a stunt car for scrap! Seriously, you're driving a Daewoo Hasbeen, and even the company doesn't exist any more!"

"I don't think your tiny little car will survive an encounter with a cycle-rickshaw. Why don't you get a proper car instead of that little roller-skate?"

"I am not buying a car in UP. I know it's only a few kilometers from Delhi, but god knows what kind of gangster has driven it through those crazy roads in UP"

"Cars in Delhi are much cheaper than in Sikkim. A couple of friends of mine are taking a budget flight to Delhi to buy a car there and drive it back to Gangtok."

"Mrs. Khanna told me they are getting a new Esteem now that everyone in this area of Delhi seems to have a Swift. What a snide way to snub me! She knew we just got a Swift. They probably need an Esteem though, given how fat that whole family is."
