    Gurkha Hard Top - Ready for War
    Look and Style : Its style and looks are really attacktive, when I am driving then I feel its I am not in a car but I am in a jet plane thanks to its powerful engine. And it's really very comfortable because (4X4X4) it has 4 wheel drive, 4 terrains, 4 Seasons It is world's first EOV - Extreme Off roader and on roader vehicle. Its Mercedes derived turbo engine with differencial locks on both front and rear axles can counter any terrain. With its strong engine and solid buitl it can conquer any turf whether it is on road or off road. Last of the thing is it is really very comfortable and styling and certianly fits within your budget. It's much better than Jeep and Thar.
