Expert Hi,
Ford Endeavour is a good choice as a SUV.The investment would be profitable if the car is used for occasional long runs. The problems with car are quite less however general service and Maintenance costs wil be reletvely on higher side.
For limited usage it will be worth going for a SUV like Safari in range of 10 lacs.So that there is savings in investment and also serves the purpose of SUV.

Well if ur gonna hardly use ur veh then u have to go with the Safari 2.2 . I have a Endeavour and it sucks. problems like tyre wear and have to have some a/c fuses to change everytime the a/c fails is the advise u get from Ford. CAUSE THEY CANT SOLVE THE LIL PROBLEM. sERVICING IS FANTASTICALLY EXPENSIVE.
i RECOMEND THE SAFARI
