Hi guys, I moved from Hyderabad to Vishakapatnam recently, but my search for a Gypsy is still on, can any one from Visakhapatnam guide me picking up MG413W Mpfi from army disposals.

Thanks,
Vamsi.

Any news from anyone about the results of the Pune auction. I am looking for an mpfi king and generally insearch of a team again. Any news of mpfi king auctions ?

guys i have woken up quite late in life but please count me also in if some one wants to patch up to pick up a lot of MPFI Gypsies in auction. lol:

Hi guys, I have a friend who is also looking to purchase jeeps from the Chennai auction which is on 22nd or the Pune auction which is on 20th. If any one is interested to buy, do PM me and I will let him know. He's registered in MSTC.

guys! i am hoping to get a jeep in the Pune auction on the 20th.

@experts - need your tips on how much one would end up paying for a 550, and also for the 540.

if anyone is planning to go inspect the vehicles sometime this week, please let me know!!

Hi enthu!

Any idead if there are any gypsies on auction on 20th ?

Cant PM you since you are a newbie.

hey KSM!
there are several Gypsies on offer too!! :thumbs up
check the attached xls file for details.

no enthu

Planing to take your jeep to ladak? lots of gypsies on the list, has the petrol advantage for the high reaches of the himalayas. It would take a min of 3 months to get these into shape for a trip. Gypsies would be more reliable that the 540, but more expensive to run. Go for a newer one even if more expensive, for a smoother engine and lesser rebuild effort.

thanks for the tip, sir! but my first Ladakh trip will be in the Alto!!! :D
also, since i have just quit my job, i might not be able to take the restoration costs.
the monetary cost would be manageable. the psychological cost - by virtue of the verbal bashing i'll get from my parents and brother - would surely be unbearable lol:
by the way, the newest one available in this auction is from 2000. plus i'd prefer a diesel vehicle given the huge difference in the prices of petrol and diesel!!!

If any of you are looking to pick up jeeps in lots let me know , my friend is interested in picking one from a lot of two and the other can be picked up by you. He went all the way to Pune to inspect the vehicles for the last auction. The vehicles are the same so he has a fair idea how the vehicle is .

hi Satheesh, can you please leave your contact number on a post (since both of us are newbies, we can't use PM). i'd like to call you about this.
you can edit /delete the post once i have your number! :thumbs up

You can send him an e-mail @ kannanguru86@gmail.com, he'll then provide his number. Just that I did not find how to delete/edit my post, so providing his e-mail.

Moderators: This is not marketing info but just that my friend is interested in buying lots and then sharing it. If you feel this is inapproproate. Please delete.

thanks for the id. I've mailed your friend and am waiting for his reply.

cheers!

anybody checked out lot no. 106 - the accidental mpfi Gypsy ?
I am curious to know the condition of this vehicle.
