Guys, thanks for the replies. My intention of writing that review was to highlight the ruggedness of the vehicle. And no breakdown at all. You would be amazed if you see the vehicle, it looked brand new and top condition. Ofcourse I maintained it so well. It will take any amount of battering without complaints!
Mileage in city: Somebody asked the mileage in city, it gives only 8-9 in city
Brakes, not that good as a car, but once you know how to handle it, it is not a problem. None of the incidence I mentioned above was due to the drivers fault or weak brake. It is 2 tonne vehicle with high body, so you need to be little cautious on cornering at high speed. I dont see any improvement in the new model (slx)
Gear : I find it smooth, not as good as a car, but not bad. My wife also drives the same vehicle with ease within the city.
Ground clearance: good, taken to many places where there is hardly any road
