Sonu is in top gear

When it comes to cars, actor Sonu Sood prefers something that suits his tall frame. "I am a tall guy, so getting in and out of a small car is quite a task for me. And good leg space is very important for me," says the handsome hunk, who started driving at the age of 14 and by 17 was considered the family driver! The actor, who owns a Ford Endeavour and a BMW E30D, recently purchased an Audi Q7. But this one as a gift for his dad who is as tall as him. Sonu talks to CS about his passion for cars:



To papa with love

Like me, my father is also very fond of cars. And he's as tall as I am. So I decided to gift him the Audi Q7 on his birthday on April 17. When I signed my first film, I got a Zen for my family with my first cheque. And I always wanted to buy a bigger car for them. But my dad is a simple guy and he didn't want me to invest so much money on a high-end car. When he saw his gift last month, he loved the car on sight, but was reluctant to accept it.u00a0

Family time

I drove down to Panchgani with my family in the new car. They loved it. My kids enjoy the sunroof feature, which allows them to look up while on a drive. We've been to Marine Drive and the Bandra-Worli Sea Link in the car. Now, the monsoons are coming and I plan to take my wife out for a romantic drive.u00a0

Yeh hi hai right choice baby!

Personally, I am partial to SUVs as I find them comfortable with my height. I zeroed in on the Audi Q7 because of its sporty look. When I took the Audi Q7 model for a test drive on the Western Express Highway, I was very happy with its performance. I have customised it with features like keyless ignition and senses features, which work only when I drive it. Since the model is Q7, I made the registration number Q7 as well. But now I am changing it to Q1.
