GB, if you are set on the Bolero I feel you should go for the 4X4 variant of the Bolero (whatever _ _ X it is called). Comeon man! When your heart wants to go looking for that perfect snap, you need to be able to drive your heart wherever it wants to go. So if you love photography why compromise on the 4X4 bit? You need to see the ownership report of a Toyota Fortuner guy called 'nilaranjanray' on this forum to understand what I'm saying.
I also think the non-crde Bolero might actually be more comfortable than the crde Bolero -- reason? (he-he-he) the non-crde bolero is a 'slow mover' so it'll bump you around 'slowly' (Zor ka jhatka dheere se!) whereas since the crde bolero goes faster, it'll typically go over all the rough patches faster and give you the jhatkas more strongly . I have a 3-year old daughter and frankly, I would have prefered a Scorpio. Quote:

I experienced the same problem this weekend while driving back from Kerala. Strangely, in my case such electrical malfunctions happen only when I'm driving at night with a full load of people! Murphy at work here?!!
It started off with the discovery that the hazard warning lights were not working. Then a little while later I felt as if another vehicle behind was dipping the lights for a pass. Looking behind I saw no one... then it happened again and I realised it was my own lights which were automatically dimming and brightening and the same was the case with the a/c as well. Finally the high beam stopped functioning. I'll anyways be going for the 60K service tomorrow. Need to know one thing -- the thingy which is used by the service centre to measure voltage... is it called a 'multimeter' or 'ampmeter'? I want them to test the voltage variation in front of me so that I can make sure they've understood the problem.
There were a couple of body damages which I got repaired from a local workshop in Kerala, including the front bumper. Don't know whether they messed with the electricals or not. Also, does anybody know any junkyard/scrapyard-like place in Bangalore from where I can source some of the damaged plastic parts for my bolero?
