velu Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Chennai: Indian cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar's hands that sported a cricket bat for 24 years for India wielded a spanner on Thursday tightening the nuts and bolts of a BMW engine at a car plant near here. The BMW 5 series car with the engine and transmission fixed by Tendulkar will probably be the 'single car edition' or 'Sachin edition' rolled out by a car maker. "As a child I always dreamt of owning and driving a BMW car," Tendulkar said. Taking a spanner, Tendulkar first fixed the propeller shaft with the car engine. He and three other BMW India employees then pushed the table on which the engine was kept towards the car shell that was held by an assembly line conveyor. Once the engine was slotted in its place, Tendulkar then tightened another bolt to fix the two litre engine with the car shell. When queried by Robert Frittrang, managing director, BMW Chennai Plant as to the number of parts that makes up a BMW 5 series care Tendulkar answered correctly as 2,800. :call: Rajiv http://www.ibnlive.com/cricketnext/news/soon-you-can-own-a-sachin-tendulkar-edition-bmw-544293-78.html

vvvslaxman Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 Where can you buy this from and what is the proof that it has been worked on by Sachin? Like is there any symbol on the car signifying this? If the car takes long to go from 90 mph to 100 mph then it is his.
