    Thank you Muthu sir .......

    BTW....the guy posing in the second photo with Colt is the same guy I had problems while buying the Fantabulous.....he was trying to be smart.....smart means very smart....
    But he never expected me to see me in front of his house in Chennai in one early morning
    Lastly took all my money back from him.....and dealt directly with Srinivas in Triplicane
    Thought him a good lesson about Genuine Dealing

    Does this share the same engine as COLT?
