I hope this is a thing. My previous employer had a Mahindra with the diesel and it was a very well built little rig. More than once I thought it would be fun to own one. Only disadvantage of the Mahindra is that they are not street legal in the US due to not meeting safety standards (though I bet you could run it in a state that allows licensing of UTVs for street use).

Mahindra and Jeep have been in a legal battle for a long time about this and a new JL look alike that is playing out in the court system of Australia.

Can almost guarantee this is a one off. As @Kent R mentioned Jeep and Mahindra are at odds with each other. The Rubicon hood sticker is not scaled correctly; any of those stickers/emblems can be purchased online and stuck onto anything. That said I would love a Mahindra for OHV/UTV fun!

I always thought it would be cool to get a titled but "lost" old jeep (CJ2 or something) and just pretend the Mahindra is that Jeep:hushed:

That would be some battle with Fiat and Mahindra probably being #1 and 2 in the world for automotive and truck manufacturing. Two industry giants going head to head over a Jeep.

Some olde fart has Rubicon stickers on his golf cart. Has MT's on it as well, so its extra annoying to most jeep owners.

What is it, with Ram/Jeep guys and stickers, anyways?

At least it's still not as silly as my Ducati branded string bikini.

I thought this was spruced up mail jeep.
As far as I know they are reverse engineered military Jeeps from ones left in India post WWII. They just kept making them and improving them over the years. Its essentially the same thing as Royal Enfield Motorcycles, nobody told the India factory to stop manufacturing, lol.
That said a lot of Jeep parts for old CJs cross over to the Roxor. Also Calibrated Power makes tuning and turbos for the Diesel to get it up to like 250HP...
