Hi, I am totally new here and about the starting issue, I believe in Latin America Sidekicks are just Sidekicks, they are called Vitaras in Europe.
The one you saw is probably imported in used condition from there to here!

ok, There has got to be a way to buy used Gypsy Kings in India and have them shipped 3 or 4 to a shipping container to the US.........

I'd pay 10k for one.....

He he. In India, we think of getting parts from US & other places. There is a HUGE demand for Gyspy (SJ413) in India -- especially the used ones.
