MUMBAI, India — Satish Sawant was proudly driving his first car home from the showroom: A brand-new silver Tata Nano, draped with a celebratory garland of marigolds.
Yes, it could be. I remember a little different Subaru that was sold off rail cars for $500 back in the 1970's to anyone that would buy them in my area. Darn things broke down almost as soon as they were started so a lot of people wound up stuck with a new yard ornament.
On fella that lived near me had one in his yard for years as a testament to Japanese quality!

Yet we can all see that Subaru makes good reliable vehicles today. I don't doubt that Indian/Chinese cars can be sold here successfully as long they pay attention to market demands (including quality at a certain price). It's not that they aren't capable of engineering great cars, there certainly are very many individuals holding engineering degrees in both countries, the problem they face is the same one that hurt the big three. Saving money and cutting corners in places where people notice does not prove to be a good long term solution.
Maybe he was transporting a propane bottle in the engine compartment. Saw that in a homevideo show once.
lol, I don't doubt that it was a fault in the vehicle itself. Car fires are not an unknown occurrence in just about any brand of vehicle although the cost saving measures used in the Nano probably contribute more so than anything else.

I don't doubt it either but some people do put strange items inside their cars today.
