New Mahindra Thar or used Toyota Fortuner: which should I buy?

I ’m looking to buy a cool- looking SUV that oozes road presence, comes with a diesel machine and an automatic gearbox, and I've a budget of about Rs 20 lakh. I had my heart set on the Mahindra Thar but the dealer is telling me I ’ll have to  stay for three months for delivery and I do n’t want to  stay. 

I saw online that there are used Toyota Fortuners( 2013 to 2015 models) that will also fit in my budget. Should I take the chance on a used Fortuner or should I just  stay for the Thar?  Autocar India says The Fortuner is a tough- as- nails and  dependable SUV that  surely has the road presence you ’re looking for from the Thar – in fact, it’s bigger and that’s  commodity you should be  apprehensive of in case you need civic manoeuvrability.

 The Toyota’s diesel machine is a strong pantomime and the automatic makes it much easier to drive. Look out for issues with the diesel injectors, boscage  wear and tear( it’s a big SUV and needs an acceptable  quantum of stopping power), and body damage, as panels for the SUV are n’t cheap and some  possessors may have gone  out- roading with their Fortuner. Negotiate hard and you may get a much better deal in the Rs 16 lakh- 18 lakh range. You ca n’t really go wrong with a Toyota Fortuner.
