Merry Christmas Car

Through the months of March and September, it is estimated that a car is stolen within the untied kingdom every thirteen seconds - something that many people in Britain find a shameful statistic. The AA insurance group has announced that its reports compiled over the past few years show that if trends continue the amounts of car thefts alone will increase by a whopping 10% over the winter months and especially Christmas time.

Even though the majority of the British public find the idea of stealing - especially during Christmas time - repulsive, it seems that a disappointing amount of people do not seem to see a problem with it.

Last year there where many reports of cars being stolen while people went in and out of their houses in efforts to remove ice from cars, Christmas presents being stolen from back seats in car parks through smashed windows and even entire cars being stolen based on thieves seeing people place lots of gifts in the boots before returning to shops.

Tata Nano Car

The Tata Nano, believed to be the World's Cheapest Car was launched on January 10, 2008 in New Delhi, India. This is a small, affordable city car which was primarily aimed at the Indian market. The Nano was Ratan Tata's dream project.

Not just the cheapest, the Nano has also been dubbed as the 'people car'. The first batch of cars, as promised, has and is being delivered at Rs 1 Lakh. The second batch and thereafter, however, will bear the slightly heavier price tag. Of late, the Nano was the topic of discussions because of the fire accidents. Even after passing the stringent safety tests, the car appeared to be having flaws that were hard to determine. Luckily, a second test was conducted and all seemed fine with the Tata Nano. Though there's no recall, the car maker will be replacing the fuel pipes as an advanced safety measure.

The conceptualization of the Nano was a highly refined idea. Stressing on innovation and a new design outlook, the Nano was designed at the Institute of Development in Automotive Engineering, Italy. Ever since the car hit the Indian roads, it has been a matter of talk and the Nano has enough fame. The little car is available in Standard, Deluxe, and Luxury variants. The Deluxe and the Luxury variants have the AC and body-coloured bumpers. Alloy wheels, fog lamps, and ICE are the other features of the Luxury variant. Also to be noted, the Nano has 21 per cent space inside it and 8 per cent smaller exterior compared to the iconic Maruti 800.
