Unveiling vintage cars and bikes, this exhibition in Mumbai will make you nostalgic!

Mumbai, March 15: Each one of us compel to our own habits and hobbies. Some read books, some collect age-old stamps while some exhibit the love for vintage cars and bikes. Vintage objects base us to the roots and showcase the old ideas of innovation. Likewise The Nehru Science Centre in central Mumbai will hold a vintage and classic car and motorcycle exhibition from March 16 to April 1, 2018.

The exhibition, made up of 27 cars and 12 motorcycles will be inaugurated today evening (March 15) and will be thrown open to the public tomorrow onwards as a part of the standard display at the centre.

Unlike other special displays and programs at the Nehru Science Centre, which have an additional ticket charge to it, the vintage and classic car show will not have an additional ticket charge. The ticket charges for the Nehru Science Centre are Rs 50 for adults and Rs 20 for school students in a school organised trip. The vintage and classic car and motorcycle exhibition has been set up to educate children and adults alike about cars and motorcycles of yesteryear as they do form an important part of India's rather colourful and iconic motoring heritage.

The vintage and classic car and motorcycle show has been organised by the Mumbai based Vintage and Classic Car Club Of India, which is a part of the Western India Automotive Association (WIAA). The club also holds classic car rallies in Mumbai and will be also holding an annual classic car rally in Pune on April 1.
