Where can one get a new fully loaded Jeep Wrangler for 10L ?? Obviously not in India. The only way to get a Wrangler here is from an Embassy auction - right ? Cheers | |

Unless you live abroad, you wont get one at this price. Even if it is an Embassy auction it wont be a new car and still wont be at this price. There would be a duty involved as well. The other main thing is finding a Wrangler with the various Embassy's. |

| ![]() OT: ^^^ to give benefit of the doubt i think he meant the price abroad for Wrangler and then compared the pre-historic version that we have, atleast body style wise ![]() |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Quoting from the MDi thread. Is Thar - V521 doing rounds in Bangalore if so what time at SKS or other locations? Atleast we can TD that vehicle for sure. Quote:

Yes that is exactly what i meant. Even with our exorbitant taxes wrangler is a very good vehicle for that price with proper A/C( i used to drive one in the gulf). still i hope that the thar does justice to the price tag and if so it will definitely be my 5th car and my weekend getaway! |

Please do check as a 07 Model would not be allowed in LHD and if it is converted to a RHD it is useless. The other thing is if the car is an ex Embassy car, then duty would apply if the car is not yet Indian registered. | |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Anyways we are deviating from the THAR here. I was going through the thread and saw that the wiring harness is equipped for the a/c and an outside mechanic cannot fit the a/c simply, then i saw this in the motoroid review the following "Mahindra have equipped the Thar with power steering, and have made the cabin A/C ready. By That Mahindra mean that they have provided functional blowers, temperature control knobs and fan speed controls. You can easily get an AC retrofitted quickly, but Mahindra won’t do it for you.". could somebody throw some light on the subject. ![]() |

Is the rust problem you noticed on the CRDe variant or MDI variant? The reason I am asking is that both are manufactured in different plants and the CRDe goes through a better paint treatment along the scorpio lines. Quote:

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Wont the ECM be programed to accommodate AC fitment and sense the additional strain on the engine? I dont think remapping or reprogramming would be necessary? Spike? Nims - You can fit a after market AC right now if you want now. Or wait for about 4-6 months when the AC kit is provided by Mahindra itself. Fitted under warranty.

| ![]() DB Sir / Spike / Vinod, Please consider 'Jawa Brown' as one of the colors; it blends very well with body design and will have a distinctive appeal on the aesthetics front. I visualise a upcoming white colored hardtop and the combination of Jawa Brown body with a white top with black fenders and black thrown-in on head-light grills etc...would look damm good. Cheers Pavan |
