Shiv Motors

If you find yourself driving down Barwala Road, you will probably see our place. We are located right opposite the petrol pump, which is handy because everyone stops there anyway. Being so close to the Military Area, we see a lot of uniform traffic and heavy vehicles passing by. Shiv Motors has been sitting on this stretch for a while now. It is a dusty road, and we spend a fair amount of time just wiping down the cars and bikes so they look decent. The garage gets quite warm in the afternoons, but there is usually a breeze coming across from the open spaces nearby. We deal with all sorts of engine troubles and routine fixes. You can usually find one of us under a hood or talking to a customer about a weird noise their vehicle is making. It is not a quiet job. There is always the sound of a wrench dropping or an engine revving up to see if a fix held. We keep our tools organized, or at least we try to, though by five o'clock things are usually scattered everywhere. People know us as the spot near the pump where they can get an honest look at their motor. We don’t have a fancy waiting room with coffee. It is just a workspace on Barwala Road where we get our hands dirty every single day. That is the way we like it, honestly.
