 "Maruti 800")
Car modification has become a trend now. People modify their vehicles to give them a unique and trendy look, mostly to flaunt it on the roads. It’s not uncommon to spot cars or bikes being subjected to bizarre makeovers to grab eyeballs, whether the modification is in the seat covers, the headlights or interiors, or even the chassis.
In India, innovation and jugaad go hand-in-hand, Indians know how to make innovative things with limited resources.
Recently, a video went viral on Instagram shared by a user, namely, Adwait Singh Pilania (@adwaitxpilania) that shows a man driving around in a Maruti 800 with no roof. Reportedly, the video was taken in Haryana's Faridabad. The front glass of the car was also modified.
The viewers were amused at the bizarre transformation of the 1980s era car, which had taken on the look of a convertible.
The user, Adwait, wrote a caption, "What do you say? Mausam ke maze liye jaa rhe hai (What do you say? This man is enjoying the weather.)
