I have taken it on many rides through the hills, and did two long, difficult drives: one through Lahaul-Spiti Valley loop (Gurgaon-Kasauli-Narkanda-Tabo-Kaza-Losar-Chandar Taal Lake-Manali-Gurgaon) in the summer of 2014, and another one to Leh last year (Gurgaon-Jammu-Sonamarg-Kargil-Leh-Jispa-Chandigarh-Gurgaon, with side trips to Khardung La and Pangong lake, though we took a taxi to the latter than drive ourselves). I am hoping to keep the car for another 2-3 years at least, before considering any change, given how much more expensive a replacement that is as good as the GV will be, and how much joy this car gives me. No major troubles with the car, though I did do a clutch replacement in between. |
Superb !! Great to know that the car is still in great shape. Even better that you have been using it for long trips. Rock on ! |
