KARACHI: I am delighted to see that recently there has been an increase in the trend of holding auto shows in Pakistan. These auto shows not only provide car enthusiasts like me an opportunity to enjoy an exhibition of various amazing cars but a chance to inspect and learn about them. Moreover, these shows also offer an avenue of entertainment for Pakistanis. I am an ardent follower of car shows and had the opportunity to visit the Dubai International Motor Show in 2013. The exhibition fuelled my interest further in the vintage and modern-day extraordinary cars, which were on display.
Much to my excitement, the month of March seems to be jam-packed with various similar auto shows taking place in the country, including the Pakistan Auto Show in Karachi and the PakWheels.com auto show in Lahore. I have attended many auto shows within the country and feel that they are doing commendable work. I sincerely hope that such auto shows are held regularly; in fact, the local auto industry should support such events. These shows often help consumers decide which car they should purchase next and so act as selling points for manufacturers and car dealers.
