We see so many vehicles on road everyday but It's the Gypsy which makes anyone and everyone turn their head and take notice.Many vehicles have come and gone but Gypsy is still a headturner and remains the best looking vehicle to hit the road till date.Talking about comfort and interiors,they can always be improved as per our needs by little modifications as It is very spacious inside.I have a King and I have installed A/C and  and It's like any other car now but with looks which you will never get in any Car or by spendind 20 Lakh on SUV's.Fuel economy is not as bad as everyone has assumed it to be...as long as you do not engage 4WD, in City itself one gets about 10 to 12 kmpl and in IDC it can go upto 12 to 15 kmpl..I think even Cars like Swift give only about 12 to 14 in city.And the ground clearance is amazing as in India we need it in cities too by looking at the pathetic condition of roads with potholes and nasty speed breakers :-) specially in cities like Bangalore,You can go off-roading on the main streets itself.With improvised suspension Gypsy can beat any vehicle on and off-road comprehensively.I have 2 more cars at home but I have left it for my parents and family..It's Gypsy for me anyday..And I completely agree wtih the Gypsy's advertising statement There's a Gypsy in everyone..Because I still see so many people irrespective of their age and irrespective of so many new ultra modern and luxurious vehicle flooding the market, dream of owning a Gypsy someday...which is under production for more than 20+ years now.The reason could be the looks or the perfomance..with all it's lackings in comparison with modern vehicles,This vehicle is still relevant somewhere in the hearts and minds of people like me.

Thanks 4 giving me knowledge about gypsy.I WANT 2 BUY IT.I SHOULD PURCHASE it NEW OR SECOND HAND?.PLZ TELL KIRAN.What about its resale value.

Kiran on 12 Feb, 2009 at 01:33 PM

Yes Aniket...It loooks like a Jeep but handling is as smooth as any other petrol driven Car( Remember it's one of those very rare petrol Jeeps ).It questions is power driving realy so necessary ? because it has a very good turning radius without power driving. Maintenence too is like any other petrol Car and parts are inexpensive too.You get good fuel efficiency as well ( 10+ in City and 13+ in Ideal Driving Conditions ).I've never had a breakdown in my Gypsy.

Aniket Sengupta on 12 Feb, 2009 at 12:34 PM

Kiran, very good review. There are 2 things I would like to ask you: 1) Is the car easy to handle in city traffic? 2) Is it too maintainence prone, or generally reliable (considering periodic servicing is done)?

Prakash on 19 Nov, 2008 at 01:50 AM

Kiran, Your attitude is great. In addition, it is great to use the vehicle in a farm to transport goods. I really love using it, though I have other 'modern' four wheelers. Prof.Prakash francis.j

Kiran,You are absolutely right.A Gypsy is still a head turner.I have always dreamed of owning one and come 2009 I will have one :-))
