Then, with a "limited" budget, your options boil down to:
1. The good old Maruti Gypsy.....tried and tested......but a real pain to drive in the city......huge turning radius, parking probs.......but tough as a bull! Costs around 4 lacs I think.....
2. The Sumo Victa.......the new avatar of the Sumo.....with power steering, power windows, good air conditioning, et all......one of the best in its class at the moment....
3. The Mahindra Bolero.....a little bit expensive, but Scorpio's little sister comes with a touch of class......a good deal operall.....might be a pain in the fuel economy department though......
4. I
know there are more........can't think of any right now.........will post more when I remember....let me know what you think of these options.....
My personal choice from among these 4.....Sumo Victa.....
Trivia: Does anyone know how the Sumo got its name???
