I just saw a new pickup badged Tata. looks a bit like a SSangyong but the first one I've seen here. Aren't they a Indian company? I'd be interested to find out more about them.

Yes. They own Jaguar too. :(Quote:

Wonder how much they cost?
Why would you be interested to found out more?
Indian crap built by Thais:(
It looks wank.
Why to see if they are as crap as I think they will be of course!Quote:

I'd love to see Top Gear review some of their models. :)
And another marque as well isn't it, Range Rover or something? I seem to recall they brought out two (or am I thinking of that Chinese Co.?)Quote:

Though the chinese bought Rover, not Range Rover.

wrong Tata I presume ...................:)
^ never mind, she adds value to the thread, even though her legs are fat:)
So they are importing a crap tata pickup from India and not the Royal Enfields? Disappointing. Very disappointing.
Tata owns Landrover and Jaguar
Anyone got any prices on a 4 door pickup?
Might be the wrong Tata, but I bet it has a better chassis than the Indian produced version.Quote:

^ How does that compare (roughly) with the Toyota's, Mitisubishi's etc? Favourably I'm imaging, but substantially so?
doesn't look worth it
^^
About 100k cheaper for the four door
But after three years depreciation will probably take a big dent out of that especially if it proves to be less reliable than a Toyota
Any pictures??
That's a substantial saving, 100k. Must be hard to break into a market though. I've never even seen one of these things and already I'm questioning its reliablity. If they can overcome that sort of perception and prove themselves they could do well at those prices.Quote:

Cheers for those prices but at that level I wouldnt touch them with a bargepole.Quote:

Bearing in mind that the other trucks also have a cheap and utilitarian feel to them with lo grade plastics, and a general lack of attention to detail, it is saying something to criticise a pickup truck for feeling cheap.
... and the Land Rover. :)Quote:
