The car-loving Rana had brought the car for their own use with great grief. He had brought a Ford vehicle to Nepal. However, there was no light in the vehicle brought to Nepal.However, as Gehendra Shamsher himself was a scientist, he had installed lights in the car himself. He also added some features to the car as he is fond of cars.
It has been claimed in history that Veer Shamsher was the first Prime Minister to drive in Nepal. On the day of Indra Jatra, Rana Prime Minister Shri 3 Bir Shamsher is said to have boarded the first vehicle entering Nepal in a grand ceremony. However, it has been claimed in history that the vehicle had reached Chitwan in Nepal even before Gehendra entered Kathmandu. In the time of Chandra Shamsher, an Englishman had come to Kasara in Chitwan in a vehicle to hunt.
