What racetrack bike is that?? 53 bhp?? Is this for real?
Whats the 4 wheel drive select lever doing sitting under the front console in the Thar?
Is this is dummy one?
^ Wanted to ask exactly that - One would need to stretch to reach the lever.
Have become an instant Mahindra Fan after looking at the Thar. The fit and Finish as mentioned by GTO looks sturdy and much better than the standard Scorpio/Xylo Finish.
LAUNCH THE THAR HERE , MAHINDRA..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One customer , in an already long list just added.:)
The buses with the toothy grill treatment look wierd!! and are they going to launch the bikes?

Thats how you reach the selector lever in the mm540 as well. A trifle inconvenient, but you get used to it.
Infact its the dashboard central panel that has pretruded on top of the lever.
