    DRIVING:
    Bolero versus Fortuner Folks I am a semi urban kustomer and need to ride "OUT" as many have tried to project in other reviews - to the wastelands of this country - namely the villages- where I have a home- MY HOME. The fortuner is being positioned as a SUV or MPV or any other V .... but you need to remember that this is one hell of a messed up product from Toyota. The Bolero true to its Price - 3.5 lacs on road does a good job of ferrying me and my family and also the fact that when I need a job to be done at my house it is the perfect piece of equipment. Extremely low on price - the noise level is the same as that of the Fortuner and I can drive it the way I want it. As for the Fortuner - my friend got it to my house to show off- both got flooded partially with water Bolero was cleaned in 30 mins - the Great Off-roader from Toyota - the Fortuner has been sent to the workshop as it started stinking. Then about a week later when we got it back we drove it to a 5 Star for an evening party- the noise it created in the lobby of a 5 star hotel - we thank toyota - we got everyone's attention, even if they were staring at us - Badnaam hue to bhi to kya naam na hoga- at the function where we had landed - all of us remembered us as the noisy fortuner owners - we were the Noisy Stars for the day. When we had to leave, we did not have to inform the courtesy desk who we were and what car we CAME in riding. Excellent hotel service or was it some thing else. We two days ago went out to Jim Corbets and the Great Fortuner hit a small 6" rock - the front left wheel needed minor repairs- the cost 73000/- SEVENTY THREE THOUSAND RUPEES , for trying to go off road. Bolero full front wheel replacement would have costed about 7500/- only.Nothing Good at that PricingPrice, Product Profile & Configuration
