M&M ARMADA

HI

I AM FROM SIKKIM, A TINY KINGDOM LOCATED IN THE HIMALAYAS NOW A PART OF INDIA.

I HAVE A M&M BOLERO GLX 2001 & A M&M ARMADA 2000. I LOVE THE JEEPS.THEY R RELIABLE, REASONABLE TO MAINTAIN & DRIVE.

I WON'T SAY IT'S THE BEST SUV OR MUV BUT RATHER, "AN EXPERIENCE"! I BOUGHT BOTH CARS NEW FROM THE COMPANY & STILL HAVE THEM.

THE BOLERO HAS GOOD ON ROAD CAPABILITIES & FAIRLY GOOD OFF ROADING TOO WITH AC, HEATER, POWER STEERING & IT WAS REALLY THE FIRST FEW INDIAN CARS TO HAVE THAT FACILITY.

AS FOR THE ARMADA, I HAVE CHOPPED OFF THE CHASSIS TO MAKE IT SHORTER & CHANGED THE BODY. I BOUGHT THE BODY OF A VERY OLD JEEP. IT BELONGED TO THE KING OF BHUTAN SOME TIME BACK & HAD TO REDO ALMOST THE WHOLE BODY.

IT'S WORTH THE PAIN THOUGH. THE JEEP HAS A 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION WITH NO OVERDRIVE BUT HAS 4X4 & A LOT OF TORQUE SO YOU WILL NEVER GET STUCK IN A BAD SITUATION, LOL.

THE BOLERO ON THE OTHER HAND HAS A 5 SPEED SYNCHRONISED GEAR BOX AND IS A RELATIVELY MUCH EASIER MUV TO DRIVE.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUERIES THEN DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK. I TOO AM A JEEP LOVER & AM REALLY CURIOUS TO KNOW WHAT MODS YOU GUYS DO AS YOU HAVE A LOT OF OPTIONS IN ENGINE, SUSPENSION ETC.

SO CHEERS & HAPPY DRIVING! ( I APOLOGISE FOR MY WRITING SKILLS ALSO).

Larry's Comment: Your message is clear! Lovin' Jeeps (M&M included) is a world wide phenomenon shared by many.

Great Love for Jeeps is seen with the heavenly background that you have in Sikkim. That is some heritage in the King of Bhutans Jeep.

Thanks
