Use Jeep trailer for such applications. Its useful in a sense that you can separate that extra loading bay when not needed. Unlike pickups in which you always carry loading bay irrespective of your usage. I have been using 3 different type of trailers for my different use and I am happy.

Don't have picture of third trailer, its actually a standard jeep trailer without side walls to carry big objects.

I think the natural successor to your Marshal would be a LWB Bolero DI(spacious than regular Bolero), lots of availability in the Rajasthan state.

Post 2014, has better ergonomics along with the AC, demister and heater come as standard. Excellent availability of spares, almost everywhere.

As some of you know, we got a Getaway... Related posts were all shifted over there, so if interested, check them out at:

Re: Our Marshal DI 4x4 NGCS

Had sometimes wondered what it would look like with more rubber.

Took these from the Getaway... still not sure what I'm going to do yet. The Scorp wheels I've been running all this time are 7" wide, these ones are around 8.5", but of course it's the positive offset that makes the bigger difference. If I mod two of them to make a more neutral offset, it might actually work alright to put those on the front of the Marshal, and leave the positive offset ones on back; this could actually equalize the front and rear track measurement, vs the
(bit quirky) large OE disparity. Should look better and very likely may drive a little straighter as well. They won't be rotatable then, but I never did so anyway - the alignment and geometry are so perfect that I never did get any uneven tyre wear.

For comparison's sake, the stock 7.5" Getaway rim & 245/75-16 tyre... with the proper offset.

Still enough clearance from the leaf springs - even with my steering stops set very sharp... turning radius is so good on these NGCS - much, much better than Gypsies.

I figure since the wife will be driving the Getaway now, I don't mind having something a little wider that requires more steering effort on the Marshal.

I have been following your posts for many years about your Marshal. Today I'm just curious to know the last stories of your vehicle if get some time do post it.
