Hi All,

    I am really confused in taking a used vehicle,

     my budget is less than less 2 laks

     my choice is Gypsy (Hard top),

     model can be 1995 or above. 

     how much mileage it will give.  

     how will be the ride in the above since i have not travelled in it.

     how will be the maintenance cost

     Kindly Suggest,

    Thanks in advance.....

In your budget of Rs.2 lac, you can get a Gypsy of 2002-'03 - have a look at this Used Car Valuation Tool.

It may give you a mileage of 10/11 in city & 14/15 on highway (depending upon driving conditions & style).

Ride is good & so is the performance.  But, as you may be aware, it has basic features only.

Maintenance cost is not known to be high.

Basically High and Low are the forms of driving, when you are going up a hill, depending on the elevation of the road u need to select 2H or 4H. 4H is also used for rough tracks and off road driving. talkng about 4L, its used for driving down th hill. and N is Normal for city driving conditions where the pressure on all the four tyres is equal.

Army jeeps are all MUV, all terran vehicles and designed to adapt all kind of conditions.
