Any you thought Jeep Parts are expensive

[TRBN8R]

OK guys I think I have upset too many people here ...... I didnt mean to challenge the superiority of Jeeps or upset diehard Jeepers. I am one of them too but cant afford to have two $40,000 Jeeps in my garage. I was looking forward to getting rid of my wife's car and get a cheap weekend toy in a couple of years time. It should look good and be cheap to buy, modify and fix in case it broke something. I came across this Mahindra while doing nothing on the net and thought might as well have a look at it. Thats the reason behind it, as you can see I posted my thoughts on a thread that was regarding expensive spares.....

I apologize if I have upset someone...

PS: Parramatta Jeep quoted $107/Ltr for synthetic diff oil..... That would make $642 in oil + Labour for changing both diffs.......

LOL doubt anyone is actually offended - Just shyt stirring.
$40k? who can....And if I did I'd still buy an old one and spend the rest doing it up.

Of course while price is probably the most important aspect when deciding to buy a part, Service and the ability for sellers to provide the "right" items and "quickly" can influence the buyer to pay a premium. Unfortunately that seems not to be a priority for may sellers these days. Sellers need to go out their way to make a sale rather than rely on their name alone.
I'd be prepared to pay a little extra if I got good service.
