To be frank, even I had to be very patient with the second hand Safari market. A lot of them are fairly abused and then put up for sale!

The TCIC engine was actually a good one. Too bad that it was let down by the rather excessive weight of the Safari.
The last pic looks awesome. |
I agree theMAG, the TCIC engine is an extremely smooth and free revving engine. If it were to be used in a smaller sized SUV like the Mahindra 340 or Gypsy it would do wonders given that torque is fairly good@190NM - If that can haul the Safari quite well off-road it would probably do great with lighter vehicles
