As of now, it is a 2.49L engine. MHawk is 2.2 and comes with a TMIC, this is 2.49 with a FMIC. One "may" see a scoop if the 2.2 L is plonked in, all depends. Vishal, you are lucky you got it without the mHawk engine. Spike:D |

Is this some new engine or the engine from the Scorpio? Because the specs say 2.5L engine! http://www.mahindrathar.com/specification.aspx |

Have driven 15000kms and hell yeah! It's 2.49L (Rounded to 2.5 on paper)! Spike has said it in the previous post. Don't need DB for that. Let's keep DB for serious matters only! However, could anyone clarify why 2.5 CRDe is better than 2.2 Mhawk? |

Usage pattern: I have no plan of core off roading, I like the look and 4WD system and that's why I brought the Thar. The only off roading I will do is Leh Ladhak in next season. Till then, it will be used as a daily commute vehicle. I find it very cool in bumper to bumper traffic, just put in first and it starts crawling, no need to use clutch, and break. |

I hope this is not the TD vehicle standing at their showroom for a month and a half. And whatever you do, don't go back to Silver Jubilee for ANY kinda service - free or paid. Find a trustworthy private mechanic and get everything done in front of your own eyes. I never thought this to be possible but Mahindra after-sales service (Silver Jubilee or Sahyadri) is worse than that of Maruti's (Sai, Chowghule, Kothari, or Wondercar). Have experienced all. |

Congrats on the purchase of the Thar. It's a nice and sincere review. Almost any decision related to Jeep is a matter of heart :). Hope you have found favor with your home ministry. Have a safe and happy motoring. Enjoy the Jeep life. P.S: What happened to the Enfield booking? |

Good review! The 2.5 will be having more low end grunt than the 2.2 . Your tyres are 235/70/16 BTW. Looking forward to the mods you are planning to do to make it more friendlier. Enjoy the ride ! |

Vishal - Heartiest Congratulations on your acquisition! Courtesy our Chapters page, I am aware the kind of turbulence you've gone through while deciding which SUV to buy before actually finalizing and buying the Thar. I am glad you are living your dream. Enjoy her to the fullest! Are you planning for a Tyre and alloy wheels upgrade? |

Dear Vishal - congratulations, and first of all, let me apologize for not being able to see your vehicle when we met (I obviously cannot disclose the "location"), due to urgent assignments and engagements at that time. I would definitely love to see your vehicle and drive it. Irrespective of what anybody says (which will include your heart from time to time), please do not deviate from OE specifications. As you intend to use the vehicle for a particular purpose, if used properly, nothing will happen to it for at least 1,50,000 kms if good fuel, lubricant, coolant and air are supplied to it. I finally want to see my dream realized, which is: Nothing happens to the car - EVER - the customer only adds fuel and drives. It is that "EVER" which raises the bar exponentially and precludes everything. In my opinion, your car and DKG's car in Hyderabad are the closest test cars that I have in the field to realize this dream of mine. So please help by giving periodic feedback. This is the correct way to achieve customer delight, everything else is a lot of talk! One small piece of advice, please use the ASCs only for fluid replenishment purpose as I have suggested above. I have done it 2 times, first in case of my Scorpio MH15BX3184 and second in case of my Bolero MH15CM6341. Both were absolute missiles on the road, the Bolero more so due to tremendous value addition done to the driveline and driving dynamics! (I can visualize Pratheesh "Spike" smiling)! There was no way I would hand them over to ASCs, no way! Best regards, Behram Dhabhar |

I am not going to do anything to vehicle without consulting you, Pratheesh, Sudharshan (Raju bhai) and Gajanan. I am going to just fill it and drive it. I have PMed you for some ASCs information, please reply to that. I need to fix that rear bench issue as it is pushing soft top. |

Dear Vishal - I am not what you mentioned! ... Isn't this "Customer Centricity"? I hope good sense prevails and more people follow it. On seat, it is very simple, there is no need to complicate it. So, the seat is pushing the canopy out. What does common sense tell you to do? ... So, just do the sunday morning leisure activity, enjoy yourself and don't pull your hair out, its just not worth it, but do it fast or else you will get a mark on the canopy which will be impossible to remove! HaHaHa! lol:. Best regards, Behram Dhabhar |
