My first car was a Maruti 800. Unfortunately it is not with me right now. I would love to have it back again with me. So people listening to me, feel free to contact and get in touch.

Sachin Tendulkar also mentioned on video that his love for cars started at a very young age. Sachin and his brother used to sit in the balcony of their house and used to spot cars. There used to be a big drive-in theatre near there house and many used to drive their cars and watch movie while sitting inside the parked car.

Maruti 800 was a car that became popular among Indian families and was there on sale for a very long time. We still have number of well kept examples around the country and Sachin Tendulkar could have chosen to buy any of those well kept examples. However, the one that he is looking for is his first car, which has a emotional value more than anything else. Sachin Tendulkar is an absolute car nut and even used to own a Ferrari that came to him as a gift from Michael Schumacher on behalf of Fiat in 2002. The car now belongs to a businessman from Surat. We really wish that he finds his first car soon. The Maruti 800 was the first car from Maruti Suzuki, and was launched way back in 1983. It continued in nearly the same shape for over 30 years before discontinuation.
