A teenage crush come true for me . Its been 16 months since my gypsy owned me , and its going to own me for ever. Its specifications are in every review so I will skip them. My gypsy is 1.3 MPFI 2011 june , white hardtop. I use it only for my weekend fun drives and off roading, daily drive is a car. it has taken me places where I would never think of going even by walk. After I installed ac and a music system its much more comfortable. its a perfect all rounder available in India. Very easy on your pocket ( you can just fill it shut it and forget it ) , its got rock solid mechanical underpinnings and a fantastic 4wd gearbox.
It fills me with lot of confidence when I go off roading every weekend. Comming to the most important thing on every ones mind ( kitna deti hai ) , it has a decent fuel economy of 12 - 13 kmpl with ac on on highway drives at speeds of 90 - 100 kmph. local with AC on it should be around 9 - 10 kmpl , never checked it . Its much better than any mahindra jeep ( no offense to mahindras) . Drives very good on off road and on road. Breaking is a bit of concern until you get a good feel of the gypsy, until then panic breaking is scary ( its not built for speed , its built to go offroad ) . I would suggest to buy a brand new gypsy rather than scrappy old jeeps or 2nd hand gypsies, if you want to enjoy a hassel free ownership for next 15 - 20 yrs.
