aningbo 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2007 I'm in Delhi and looking for a Mahindra Scorpio. After a little search, i found one for about 3 lakhs. It is a Turbo 2.6 DX 2003 model. the things that surprises me is that the car doesn't have power window and no cladding! Is this alright? It has driven 102000 km already. Could you guys suggest anything? thank you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rssh 59 Report post Posted December 15, 2007 Well can't say much but see if the clutch is good and the vehicle is not being used as a Taxi. The price coated is fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aningbo 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2007 do you think the km driven is a little too much? i mean is 102000+ km still okay? how long do u think the engine would last. the clutch and everything seems to be fine. it is driven by a driver for a company.

harryccc 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2007 exactly, 102000 km is a lot too much.... more than this any engine would have more maintanence cost from yur pocket... may be thats the reason the company is selling the car! and this makes the price tag sound expensive to me...

pryas 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2007 Try fr Good Used Scorpio which has run around 60k kms and 2004 model , then i dont think paying of 3.5 - 4 lac for this car will be a bad idea regards, Priya Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gurkha 1 Report post Posted December 16, 2007 The Scorpio engine is shot by 80,000km, if well maitained you would still need top end work by 100,000km. Electricals are hugely problematic. The front suspension starts eating tires on some batches of Scorpio. Don't think is a good value for Rs.4L Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FuelRunGod 200 Report post Posted December 16, 2007 Ditch it, its run too much and 3 lakhs is a lot of money for a car that's seen so much mileage. Thread Moved. FRG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
