“Imagine the peace of mind that comes with owning such a vehicle in today's world. Solid axles front and rear with locking diffs, ladder frame chassis, leaf springs in the rear, no wonder it has a payload of over 1.2 tonnes!”

“outdated features looks like 1970's interior that's why they are reliable and that's why i like this 70 series a pocket friendly off road suv”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“Price was 2.75-3cr until last year, with discussion centered on the 70 Series being extremely expensive in Nepal.”
