				The Trax mentioned in this thread is sold due to  german emission laws and the following costs..... 
 
We also have a subforum here called "User stellen sich vor" saying "User can introduce themselves". |   |

				Hello all , thank you for the warm welcome. 
 
 
 
 Sadly , I do not know how to speak german except for a few words like "sitz, Platz, Vorhaus, Geblaut etc etc " all from training dogs. Please forgive my ignorance.
 
 
 
 Here in India there are not many Trax 4x4s available. Most of the manufactured vehicles are for export only.  
 
 
 I have lived in australia and the USof A and have had Toyota LC , Jeep Wrangler 2.4 L , Chevy Silverado V8 4x4 . 
 
 
 But of all the vehicles I love the judo, because it is a very honest attempt to make a true offroader at very low cost. Here in India it is available for USD15700 with A/C power steering PTO and diff-locks. 
 
 
 The body work is very poor and the quality of the interiors is also very poor. As far as offroad ability, I have not got stuck even during the monsoon deep inside the jungle.  
 
 
 I would like to know your HONEST OPINION about the trax 4x4.

				Three years ago when I started my offroadlife after I went to the Sahara- Desert with a fried I thought about buing a Trax.
 
The prices for wellknown 4x4, even in poor condition were so ridigulous so I threw an eye on it.
 
Finally I found a rare Diesel Suzuki Samurai, in India known as Maruti Sierra (not sure) and bought it. 
 
There is no real service in Germany for Traxes and I wasn´t shure what would happen if they stopped the Import.
 
I also did not like the construction of the front axle....
 
 
But I still like the car a lot, because its so simple. I met a happy couple in the desert with a Trax and once saw a red one in Munich. |   |

Yes you are right , the front axle is independant and seems a bit weak for rock climbing etc. 
 
 
 The vehicle you are talking about is "Maruti Gypsy"   http://www.marutigypsy.com/
 
 
 I think a german gentleman by the name of Dr.Bacher is importing the vehicle. I have heard about him from the people at the Trax factory. Even some spare parts I got for the car had his name on it . He had a major part in designing the vehicle, is what I understand. 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 The trax company here is very old fashioned and are not marketing the vehicle properly even in India. But this is one of the best offroaders I have ever driven and I am in love with the sweet sweet OM616 diesel engine    [/img] |   |
