Why dont you start by specifying:

1. Intended purpose and use
2. Budget

GTO

budget not more than 1 lac
looking for cut chasis
... chakkar lagaana.. now thats the need of a jeep

The best option for you would be a used CJ340. You should be able to pick one up for 50 grand, and spend the rest in getting it to a better condition.

will you please let me know how much will i have to spend to maintain this jeepa year ... wud like to know abt t FE and all
sir i am a student so i dont get much... so i have to think about it ..

himanshugoswami · 2nd March 2006, 16:04

either a CJ 340 or the earlier gypsy MG410

u can get oth in under 1 l. For hte Gyspy, maintenance would b lower but running costs will be hihger since it is a petrol

dodge · 2nd March 2006, 16:05

Dodge, how many kms will you be driving every day? Accordingly you can decide whether to go for petrol or diesel.

jkdas · 2nd March 2006, 18:57

man i study in kuttikanam(pala) you are from tvm so you may know that place... about classic for how much will i get a classic in good condition

jkdas · 2nd March 2006, 21:58

oho, st.marys or so? hilly and turny turny roads. I just know one or two watering places at pala.

What abt classic? Cant you try kochi mart for these. I think MM still sells it ...export market.

And gypsy is a good choice, but petro..I saw one at Tvm will damn big/wide tyres. Looked great.

Maruti is putting Modern Diesel engines in all its vehicles this year. I would wait for the Diesel Gypsy to get launched..
