Paul
110 Double Cab Pick Up (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 2 Years
Fuel Economy: 10.0 km/litre (10.0 L/100 km), Diesel
    - Very good off-road performance straight from the showroom, thanks to superb wheel articulation.
    - TDCI "PUMA" engine has plenty of torque. Coupled with 6-s=eed transmission, there's a correct ratio for every occasion.
    - Easy to wash after getting dirty, just hose it down, inside and out. Also looks good when dirty.
    - Attracts a lot of "thumbs up" from strangers. And plenty of questions.
    - Not a common sight.
    - 60-year-old design and engineering means its cabin is noisy, draughty, creaky and rattly. Annoying noises everywhere.
    - Rainwater leaks in, driver's and front passenger's feet get wet.
    - Gearbox is difficult to select reverse, notchy for other gears.
To Improve
Since it's to be discontinued soon, too late for suggestions.
Except, maybe, continue production in India.
No, I would not recommend this car
