The results of this poll look very much in favor of 2.2 safari.

i too voted for it as its obvious that i own a 2.2.
But all said and done i like both the cars, in fact i used to have a bolero which is a MM.

IMHO anyone who wants to use a SUV for city driving conditions on a regular basis, the safari is ruled out. Reasons - very difficult to park in most regular places like theaters, malls etc, Turning radius is so huge that u will end up creating a traffic jam everyday. Scorpio is much better tamed for city driving and all round visibility is much better.

So why did i go for the 2.2 ?? i have a ford ikon for all those city driving

A good friend once told me - "If you have Rs10 lak budget then buy a safari lx 2.2 for long drives and book the Nano with what ever thats left for the city driving"
