Why India’s Parsis are so OBSESSED with classic cars & bikes
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Parsi community in India is renowned not only for their love of automobiles but also for their commitment to sustainability - restoring their old classics rather than buying new models. Parsi-owned cars and motorcycles hold a special place in the second-hand market, commanding higher prices due to their reputed exceptional maintenance. To delve deeper into the Parsis' automotive fascination, REV embarked on a journey through Mumbai, Pune, and Udvada. Along the way, we encountered an array of iconic vehicles like Homai Vyarawalla's ‘Dalda 13’ Fiat Millecento, Anosh and Fram Dhondy's Fiat 1100 Elegant with 900,000km on the clock, Kooverji & Faridoon Gamadia's 1948 Invicta Black Prince, Marespand Dadachanji's cherished Morris 8, the Vintage Zorastrian Bikers of Bombay and their impressive fleet of vintage motorcycles and Adil Jal Darukhanawala's incredible scale model collection, that showcased the community's dedication to classic cars and motorbikes.

I found shelter during the Great Bombay Flood at Cyrus Dhabars' Home. His father, Behram Dhabhar was a senior colleague and friend. I had tread through chest deep sewer water at Matunga Circle to reach their home. Before entering the house Behram said "Finally you can admire my Fiat." "Behram, your Fiat is swaddled in 2 layers of rain covers. How can I admire it?" "I will undo the ropes fastening the covers and you can feel the paint finish I have got on it by poking your hands under the covers" replied Behram. So there we stood in the twilight, 2 grown men in a pouring rain storm groping a classic Fiat underneath it's covers in the darkness!

I have a 34 year old car bought by my father. I still have not sold it, but I cannot use it. How to use old cars? The documentary is obviously very well made, very informative and my love and respect for the Parsis who love their old belongings.

But these Parsis are Indians. Actually its not just Parsis, its Gujarati-Marwadi culture. They care of their stuff meticulously and typically keep they automobiles especially classics in prestine running condition and refrain from selling it. Most Parsis landed on Gujarat and worked their way up from there. They absorbed this culture and took it to a next level.

It's great to see these beautiful cars being taken care and maintained in India. I can connect to what they say they have a sentimental connection with the car. My 51 Morris Minor was much the same. I bought this car as young kid for $500 as a wreck and totally restored her over the years. When I was dating my wife to be, I used to say I do have a 55 year old girlfriend, would you be ok to share home with her. Boy what a first reaction I got, until I told my wife to be about my passion for these old cars. Since then, I have bought two more with my wife and restoring them together.😅

What a fantastic voyage into India and Parsi and the car culture I never realised existed.

Fabulous video. Love the interviews with all the enthusiasts. Car's contain family memories and classic cars and motorcycles like these were beautifully made and had real durable quality.

It is not a Parsi or any other religious groups. It's the ability to have disposable income and means to keep it.

Simple reason. Parsis were always rich in the country. Indians were 90% under poverty at Independence and buying vehicle wasn't a dream they could afford. Most grandparents tell stories about drought, famine and poverty. Although Parsis were a minority, they thrived under the Mughals and then under the British. Cars, from the 50s up until the 90s were only bought by the rich in India. If they were 'collecting' cars in those days, imagine the wealth they possessed.
