Ikon Flair is govt. car
The good old Ambassador car from Hindustan Motors is slowly moving out of government patronage. It was like the ‘Bhishma Pitamah’ of the car industry. It was always there when younger and newer car models kept hitting the roads and it hung around for a very long time.

Over the years it came to symbolize bureaucracy. The government has now decided to replace the fuel guzzling ambassadors with the more stylish and fuel efficient Ford Ikon Flair. This comes after a recent approval for the Hyundai Accent. The golden age of the Ambassador is finally at an end.

I am glad that the Ambassador is going out. I believe it was an ugly car and sustained so long only because of government support. Maybe the world will be cleaner with such fuel guzzling cars anymore.

Looks like our oildie is slowly vanishing from the site.Ambassador, who ruled the roads in yesteryears was only seen either as a taxi or as the goverment vehicle but the stylish Ikon took away the this position too.Any ways as all good thing come to an end, so is the case with Ambassodor.But it will always remain in memmories.
