The New Model-T

If you haven’t heard about India’s Tata Motor Company, then I’ll give you the skinny:  they are  releasing  a 100,000 rupee car – that’s US$2500, brand spanking new. Unveiled last night, the Tata NANO, will bring motoring within the reach of millions when it is launched in India later in 2008. It doesn’t have any of the modern luxuries like GPS, Air Conditioning, or even a radio, but it gets around 60 miles to the gallon.

I know what i’m getting next Christmas - insurance.
