Spare wheel on tailgate seems to be the latest fashion doing the rounds anyway.

How do the people open the hatch door at the back with all this added weight. Must be requiring 2 people to push up the door and hold it there!

Oops there goes the convenience and usability of an already small boot

The i10 owner seems to more sensible than the Swifter. On the swift the hatch keylock has been covered by the wheel. So much for thinking through !

I think this is the consequence of fuel price hike .These owners might have added and LPG/CNG kit like one coming in spark LPG and needed some solution for the spare wheel .

Found this Prado inspired Fortuner in a market in Delhi.. It looked weird but kind of good. The straight grill looks much better in SUVs.

i was startled too when i saw it the first time, but its not a mod job. it is a stock electric scooter (don't know which company). the rear has a uncanny resemblance to the Busa's rear end

re: Pics of weird & wacky mod jobs in India!

The rear wheel on the tailgate is rather startling. I noticed that the black swift has some sort of sheet on the inside that hampers complete visibility from the drivers seat in addition to the large tyre that would have anyways blocked his view. The driver must have xray vision that he uses while reversing

That is a regular rear screen curtain. It is available at all car accessory shops and it doesn't hamper the rear vision at all in the day light. However in night one may have difficulty while reversing.

Hi, generally in Mumbai I have seen such type of adding 2 more wheels to a scooter is done by Handicap persons for not loosing balance and ride comfortably.may be colour choice looks very funny.
To me it is not a weired and wacky mod job.

Iqbal, the wierd and wacky bit was not related to the additional wheels. It was because the rear looked rather similar to that of a Suzuki Hayabusa.
