One of the worst places I have visited. Spending one night there can be a nigthmare.
power cuts , dirty cottages , poor infra.
Most of the picture and reviews on wesbsites are fake. don't go there.

I own this phone for last 8 months. It is easily one of the best phones in India. If you compare it feature wise..it's even better than the iphone 5. I can do everything including Skype, email, messaging, Facebook, twitter, youtube and play games like angry birds on this.

The babus in the ministry have written some adverse comments about the zoning issue related to this mall.so until that file is cleared which is god knows when.nothing much is going to happen to this mall.
It seems to be a case of babudom not getting it's chai paani.

Quarter results are fudged by layoffs as well as number manipulation. They don't mean much except that Wipro Infotech is making incremental profits at best. I didn't know WI published separate results so unless you have numbers what is your source ?

Ford mirror does not cost 7000. You can get it for Rs 300 . I don't know where people are buying Ford Parts but most parts are cheaper or at par with Maruti and other brands.

@gdouglas: Firsly the bolero skidded on a dry road. Skidding on wet road is normally due to Tyre Grip issue but skidding on dry road is mostly due to poor vehicle design .
Secondly hard braking is necessary at times in emergency. Bolero losing it’s balance and going sideways due to hard braking c...aused it to hit the median and topple.
This shows poor stability of vehicle and my own experience is that Bolero is front heavy .
It my be rugged and tough but it is not stable and dangerous for highway use especially when no passengers are at the back to offset the weight imbalance.Read More

If you are going to drive on highway and rarely below 70 then Bolero is not recommended. If you see the Bolero’s red mark on speedometer is around 70 kmph.
so for highway use go with Scorpio with ABS or any SUV with ABS. (anti lock braking)

just drive your bolero at 90 and brake hard....believe me you will regret it..

@deepak . What you are saying is partly true. When bolero is loaded as Taxi then it has lot of weight of passengers at the back...and in hills it can't be driven at high speed .The point is if Bolero is driven slowly and is loaded with passengers at the back then weight distribution is better but ot...herwise it is a dangerous and unstable vehicle . Definitely it can't be recommended as a family vehicle due to it's poor design.
It has number of problems such as body roll , poor braking , poor weight distribution , unstable at highway speed etc.
I have driven Bolero for many years and I always got the feeling that it is unstable . If you drive a Toyota Qualis or Innova you will understand why Bolero is cheap.Read More

Yes I agree that any car can skid at a certain speed or on wet roads.... but the problem with Bolero is how easily it loses balance. My bolero completely went out of control on a dry road because of deep tyre treads and heavy engine weight in front.
It was most unexpected crash in that one mome...nt I was driving and the next moment by braking the vehicle skidded and went out of control.,,the tyre hit the median and burst...causing it to topple on it’s roof.
In fact I was thinking of legal action against Mahindra for vehicle design flaw and for dumping cheap SUV’s without ABS to Indian customers before I spoke to Mahindra Manager.
Here is another review of Bolero I found on CarWale.
Bolero has leaf-spring suspensions at rear and coil-spring at front and are smooth enough. Bolero cannot sustain high-speed and might go unstable due to body-rolling. As far as maintenance of suspensions is concerned, its not costly. Like suspensions, braking of Bolero is not good either.Read More

@RM1968 : That is the point. High speed for Bolero is 90 kmph which is actually not that high but because of its height and forward weight distribution Bolero is more unstable than other SUV's.
This is the first time I met with such a serious accident and that too because of braking at 90 which ...tells us a lot about the bad vehicle design,Read More

Correct. It is vehicle good for villages and at slow speeds. Not designed for highway driving or mountain driving because it is unstable.

@raj : Thing is that in India people are not demanding higher standards. I have even complained to Anand Mahindra and I got a call from the Regional Business Head of Mahindra and I told them what a nonsense vehicle bolero is. I am surprised no one has sued them so far for any injuries or deaths caus...ed due to vehicle design. Can you imagine if someone is driving with family on highway and bolero skids just because you break in emergency and hits a barrier and topples ?
The accident I was involved in was only because of skidding and vehicle losing it’s balance because of braking...and as you know 90-100 is the upper limit for Bolero .. so it’s not like I was driving at 150 or even rash.
What is even more surprising is that I hit the median of the highway AFTER the skidding happened... Had the vehicle not skidded I would have easily made it stop.
If you try braking a maruti swift or a ford ikon at 100 they don’t just skid sideways and topple... but bolero does. I am pretty sure same is the story with Scorpio and Xylo although their austrian engine might be lighter...but their height and weight distribution makes them unstable.

@opera : I would only suggest buy the latest one and see if you can modify the suspension. Also look around for ABS (anti lock braking model ) if there is one.
Ensure brakes are not too hard ..One of the problems is if you put tyres that have too deep treads. The bolero will literally stop if you ...brake hard and spin out of control.
I have seen boleros give the skidding sound even at 60 when people brake hard on red lights.I think Bolero is front heavy...The fact it skids so easily is proof that it’s weight distribution is not ideal.
And definitely I must warn you.. don’t even think of driving bolero at 100 kmph on highways with family. you are inviting certain trouble.Read More

Scorpio has similar problem as bolero with body roll and bad braking . I think Scorpio with ABS ( Anti Lock Braking system) might be a better bet...but all in all I consider all 3 Mahindra SUV’s as inherently unstable and dangerous at high speeds especially when you have to suddenly change direction... / lane or brake hard.
In fact You should observe on highway how scorpios wobble and body rolls when they do lane change.Read More

yes it seems Surjivan only does cash transaction and take the whole money during check in. perhaps they are afraid that once people live there for the night they will run away,.
