Pradeep, Karan, Bianca and others are going for this experience.

This is one of the most useful and unique automotive experiences designed for anyone who drives, owns a car or plans to buy one soon. Most people depend completely on mechanics when something goes wrong, but this hands-on experience helps you understand your car in a simple, practical and confidence-building way. Guided by experts from one of Mumbai’s most experienced garages, guests learn what happens under the bonnet, how to check tyres, fluids, battery and fuses, how to understand warning signs and what to do during common road or highway concerns. It is designed for men, women, new car owners, first-time buyers, road trip lovers and anyone who wants to feel more prepared behind the wheel. This is not a mechanic training session, it is a premium real-world life skill experience that every driver should try.
