Almighty Athlete Chapter 213: Classic cars can also soar
The engine of the taxi roared violently. This is an ambassador car made in India.
The taxis in Mumbai are very distinctive. Taxi drivers like to paint in the car. Whether it is the inner wall, seats or armrests, in addition to the window, they will be decorated with colorful patterns painted by the driver. It is said that there are many Indians will choose whether or not to take a car based on the interior decoration of the taxi. If they see their extended pattern, they will take a taxi.
As for the Ambassador brand car, this is a brand that has ruled India for half a century. This is an Indian domestic brand. It was produced in the 1950s and was used as a courtesy car to receive the Queen of England. Indian officials and politicians are also taking this ambassador car.
For more than 50 years, the Ambassador brand car has been in prosperity in India. Although the car has also made some innovations, the appearance is still like a classic car. This is also a major feature of India. This kind of car was not discontinued until 2014. The main reason for the discontinuation of production was that the Indian government promulgated new vehicle emission standards, and the ambassador cars not only consumed fuel, but also did not meet exhaust emission standards, so they were eliminated.
At this time, the taxi driver also recognized Zhang Guan. He made a very exaggerated expression and said, "Oh, you are Zhang Guan, you are the world champion Zhang Guan!"
"Yes, it's me, can you drive faster?" Zhang Guan is obviously unwilling to appreciate the graffiti of the driver in the car.
"No problem, I am the fastest driver in Mumbai!" Although the taxi driver said so, the speed was still about the same as before, and there was no change.
"I watched your game during the Olympics, you can run really fast!" The taxi said in curry English, he seemed very talkative, and he didn't realize that the Zhang Guan beside him was actually anxious. .
"Can it be faster?" Zhang Guan said as he pulled out a Franklin from his arms and stuffed it into the taxi driver's pocket.
"No problem at all!" The taxi driver slammed on the accelerator. Although the speed was faster, it was far from the level expected by Zhang Guan.
Zhang Guan is really anxious. He took out all the money, and then said: "Listen, I'm driving, you help me guide, the money belongs to you, how?"
Looking at the money, the taxi driver did not hesitate to step on the brakes, and then signaled Zhang Guan to come to the driver’s seat, because the Zhang Guan money was enough for him to buy a new car.
"Go forward and turn right after two intersections, you will see a bridge, which is the only way to the airport." The taxi driver took the money with a smile, and then began to take one by one. Count it up.
Zhang Guan is put in gear, and the accelerator pedal is pressed, and the taxi quickly runs forward.
Although the appearance of the Ambassador taxi looks like a classic car, the internal structure is indeed behind the times, but the power of the engine is still good. After all, it is technology provided by the United Kingdom, and it has been improving over the years. Although there is no turbocharging, the speed of the engine with a displacement of more than 3 liters is really good once it runs.
It’s normal for a classic car to have a large engine displacement. For example, cars of the 1950s and 1960s, cars are generally six-cylinder or eight-cylinder water-cooled carburetor engines, the displacement of more than 5 liters per 100 kilometers, the fuel consumption is definitely more than 20 liters, one foot throttle For a few dollars, the oil is gone. In the 1970s and 1980s, although the technology has improved, the displacement of the car is still much larger than it is now. Of course, the benefit of high fuel consumption is full horsepower.
In fact, many old engines may not meet the above emission standards, and they are more expensive, but as long as the maintenance is good, the power may be better than the current car engine, so we can often see the United States in the movies. People drove cars in the 1970s and 1980s.
There are not many people on the road at this time. Because of the attack, many places are still under martial law. Otherwise, because of the poor traffic order in India, the car would simply run up, and maybe the car had to stop when it encountered a **** cow crossing the road halfway.
......
A black Jaguar XK stands out on the bridge.
"Omi, your new car is not bad! It's quite windy." A young man sitting on the co-pilot said.
"That’s for sure. The latest Jaguar XK, which I finally bought, is the first batch in their factory. The 5.0L V8 supercharged engine is probably the only one in India. "Vehicle!" The man named Omi paused, and then said: "If it is not familiar to my uncle and Tata people, I can't get this car so quickly."
"Yeah, now Jaguar Land Rover is also our brand in India. Speaking of it, I really admire Tata Group and even bought the Jaguar Land Rover brand directly. I heard that the Land Rover car is quite good in foreign countries. What!" said the young man on the co-pilot.
"Beep...Beep..." The sound of the car horn sounded from behind, and then an ambassador taxi drove past them.
"That classic car is driving fast! He surpassed you!" The man on the first officer said with a chuckle.
The Jaguar XK sports car was surpassed by the ambassador taxi, and it was also watched by his companions. Omi’s heart suddenly filled with anger.
"I only let him overtake it intentionally, and that's how I can show the performance of my car! Just fasten your seat belts and wait for a good show!" Omi snorted ~IndoMTL.com~ Come on The door rushed up.
After all, the 2009 Jaguar XK has a 5.0L V8 engine. Once this professional sports car accelerates, it is obviously much faster than the classic car of the Ambassador brand, so in a flash, Jaguar caught up with the taxi. Then he twisted sharply and blocked it in front of the taxi.
"Don't you like overtaking, I will block you right now, I don't believe that your broken car can overtake me!" Omi looked at the rear-view mirror with a smug smile on his face.
......
"Beep...Beep..." Zhang Guan madly honked the horn, but the Jaguar in front was obviously intentionally blocking them in front of the taxi.
"This abominable guy! It must have been intentional." Zhang Guan wanted a throttle to hit, but reason told him he couldn't do it.
"Due to this delay, the plane might take off, and I won't see Martha!" Zhang Guan frowned anxiously, and then found his racing skills in the system.
"Master-level overtaking technology! It’s you!"
