Autos FUNKY colours??!!
The only ones apart from the yellow ones in the south r black ones w/ yellow stripes, in other cities (Delhi/bbay etc.).....
Speaking of Autos, ther wer many Lambretta ones too!
I've been in these back in the 80s as a small kid, in Delhi & even Rajasthan (wer they r still in use):

Then u shud leave ur "Pardes" & come settle down in a lil village in the south....u cud even dress up in a half-saree like Trisha in the telugu movie "Nuvvostanante nenoddhantana" (Nee vardha irundha naan venda-nu sollrena :P)....but hey, jokes apart 'bet our gundu kutti wud rock in a garb like tat!
Her current orkut pic. proves it!
Altho after lookin at tat, I dont feel like calling her gundu or kutti nemore....!

Unless by Antique Vehicle we go upto the Pushpaka Vimanam. Then in a few pages it will go down the old slippery path and you will get lock-happy !

I saw Autos in Egypt (our very own Bajaj Autos) outside Cairo heading south towards Luxor.

And recently on BBC they showed a news where Autos have landed in the UK, because I didn't hear the full story, I didn't get which city in particular...

I cant in all honesty say that I love autos
In fact IMHO they should be taken off the roads
They are not environment friendly and their drivers most often than not are hazardous to your health :P.
They are not very safe either..and because of their shape ,they can tip over more easily.
