A vintage car is, in the most general sense, an old automobile, and in the narrower senses of car enthusiasts and collectors, it is a car from the period of 1919 to 1930. Such enthusiasts have categorization schemes for ages of cars that enforce distinctions between antique cars, vintage cars, classic cars, and so on.

2 vintage cars in India that speak class, elegance and style

#1 Hindustan Ambassador

Of course, the Ambassador is still on the run today having returned to ‘power’ only recently after a hiatus. But that does not in any manner take any credibility as the ultimate among vintage cars in India. Once a status symbol that has now rallied to be a fond and prized asset for its people, the Hindustan Ambassador was the ruler of India roads from 1954 before waning away to ultimately die out in 2014. As the first car to be built in India post independence, the iconic Ambassador sure has struck a chord among generations of Indian people.

#2 Hindustan Contessa

The Hindustan Contessa is an automobile which was manufactured by Hindustan Motors (HM) of India from 1984 to 2002. It was based on the Vauxhall VX Series of 1976 to 1978, itself a development of the Vauxhall Victor FE. When introduced in 1983, it was one of the few Indian manufactured luxury cars. The quintessential Indian muscle car, Contessa was spacious and comfortable but however, was let down by its poor build and service. The choice of Bollywood villains since forever, the Contessa was a striking display of elegance and was one of the fastest vehicles on the horizon, revered and coveted by all and sundry.
