Maruti Suzuki WagonR: From Vintage To Vibrant With Autorounders
The Maruti Suzuki WagonR, introduced in India on 18 December 1999, continues to be sold today. Over the years, it has seen several facelifts and generation changes. Recently, Autorounders, a renowned workshop for car restorations and modifications, showcased their work on an old model WagonR in a YouTube video on their official channel.
The video features the first version of the WagonR, sold from 1999 to 2006. The specific model year isn't mentioned. Initially, the car's poor condition is highlighted, with visible scratches, dents, and faded paint. Rust and other aging signs are also evident. The car's interior and exterior conditions are shown before the restoration process begins.
The restoration process is detailed in the video. The host explains that such projects can either restore a car to its original condition or involve modifications. In this case, the customer opted for both restoration and modification, aiming for a unique look on the road. The host mentions that the modifications were tailored to the customer's needs and preferences.
One significant change includes a dual-tone paint job. The main body is electric blue, while the roof is glossy black. To enhance this look, dual white stripes were added. The headlights were custom-made based on the customer's idea, and aftermarket alloy wheels were installed. The car's exterior transformation aimed to make it stand out.
The interior also saw extensive modifications. It now features a sporty theme with carbon fiber and red inserts. The gear lever was replaced with a Katana shift knob, and the steering wheel was upgraded to a Momo branded one.
A seat from a Hyundai i20 replaced the driver's seat. To complete the sporty look, the entire cabin, including the roof liner, was finished in black.
