- Hot Mahindra? Hard Mahindra? Useful Mahindra? Reliable Mahindra? Proud owner? - You bet - here's the first big step for the Rooth's ultimate touring Mahindra Pik Up. Aussie built on Indian quality. Ryebuck engineered at 4AM, with a huge thanks to Ben, Dan and Noah Robinson and all the other guys involved in the build. I learnt heaps hanging out with the Truck Fit guys next morning too. Hunter Valley's got the best of everything.

The presence of this Mahindra is insane!!! Ben and the team at 4am/Ryebuck Engineering have done an amazing job!
Couldn't agree more 👌🏾
I just realised it’s been 15 years this week since I went out to Australia for a good number of years. At the time just on a whim following a job offer. I had been kinda drifting in Civvie Street a bit since leaving the military a decade earlier. I Landed that day and picked up a 4WD Action mag because I was curious about the DVD attached to it. I remember watching Roothy on a trip on that DVD, and from there I was hooked, got myself a 4x4, Got Outdoors, started exploring Australia extensively, started travelling as that bug hit ,got myself in shape again as a result, that just leads onto improving your lifestyle overall, got into a better career as a result which lead to me returning to UK to pick up a Masters Degree and build a much better life. Still loving my 4x4 and being outdoors and staying healthy as a result, but mostly I really enjoy life. All because I was curious about a DVD attached to a magazine when I landed in Australia 15 years ago and got a moment of inspiration out of watching Roothy living a good life.
Best looking Mahindra - full stop!
Love the idea of turning to rooftop tent around, utilizing the roofrack as a verandah. Should certainly make getting up & down in them a lot safer. Good on yah Roothie.
Yep, heard the Bushcompany itsel;f had done a few for customersa facing front and had no problems at all with the sealing - we're off to try her out next week!
The official 70 series killer 🎉
Nah, it'll go twice as far for the buck - only time will see how long it'll last. Great thing to drive distance too - relaxed!
Absolutely magnificent!
Totally agree with Roothy's sentiment, 'Out of this world'!
One of the best looking dual cab it’s, period. Love that rooftop tent and roof rack idea. Definitely going to copy that!
wow! awesome....we are all watching from south africa...ryebuck rocks!
Wish we got canopies like that, at a reasonable price
My mate just landed in Australia from South Africa. He's migrating all because he bought a Mahindra 😂
There are plans to get Ryebuck gear across to South Africa eventually - we know how much you love your Mahindras and it was on a trip over there that I got involved with the later models too. Plenty in common eh?
Thanks to companies wanting to showcase their product Roothy gets himself a free build.
Nice!
Had a lifetime of this mate, free gear is part of bewing a journalist, but this time I got to choose and authorise the companies involved which was really nice. There's a lot of different levels of gear these days!
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY John, If you want to give me a call to throw some quality ceramic window tint on the Mahindra, I would be happy to help out @ Northside Tinting Services
Ben the Mahindra is now a beast canopy and colour next level
Had a mahindra to use on a station up the gulf, loved it.
Had a 500litre diesel pod on the back generally ran it about 3/4 full plus tools and the usual fencing/ get out of trouble gear.
Comfortable to drive, you needed to keep the revs up ie change down early, stuck to corrugations like shit to a blanket , ran on the smell of an oily rag and 1/3 price of a cruiser.
Had to swap the spring hangar bushes out for some decent ones after 60k and that’s about it.
Did yopu have any issues with chassis bending or cracking? Any vehicle can if loaded and used but it's all I've heard of other than trivial stuff. Anyway will be investigating that - and the spring hangers. Thanks mate.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY
No thats about it, some internal plastic trim on the windscreen pillar succumbed to the Corrie’s but was fixed with super glue as it kept on landing on my lap, would put grab handles above doors imo.
Drove both Toyota and mahindra on long station runs and the mahindra was always my first choice.
Cheers ,
Charlie from Tassie👍
Sensational build Roothy, dropped my Mahindra off to Mark and Ben at Ryebuck last week, pick it up on Monday with all the mods and tune, but guarantee it won't look as sensational as yours. Regs Baz.
I am "Green" with envy 🤪👍
That colour is awesome.
From plain Jane to Supermodel, that’s gonna turn heads. Love it!
Well said mate - my thoughts exactly.
That's amazing. Looking foward to the adventures in it.
What a great transformation.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Now that's a great rig! Love the colour too.
Looking great Roothy. Nice color to mate.
What a wonderful build mate... the best for the best
Very nice. Love the colour. Cheers John
Bloody awesome job,great colours,good set up,plenty of people want to copy this design,my hand up for sure,good on you rooted .
Yep, huge thanks to Ben at 4WD Industries/Ryebuck for his input - brilliant result.
I'm really considering one off these
Congratulations man! Looks amazing
Nice job on the mahindra John and good to see ya out and about, cheers
I have been waiting for this with great anticipation! I bet it looks even better in person 😃
That Old saying Roothy, to get the best you have to pay the best, that looks awesome, Job well done, the paint job and color is fantastic, everything about it looks absolutely brilliant, cant wait to see you on the road
Thanks 👍
Milo inspired respray, looks the goods.
Green works for me - and this lighter shade is almost camo in the bush - very easy on the eye!
That is ace. I'm almost as wrapped as John. Great work.
That is stunning, excellent job from one Mahindran to another well done ,makes me want to redo mine
Wow that looks superb.
Looks Awesome
On ya John you deserve this mate looks good too it's like that meaning of hard work pays off, oh am I getting the hint of it being a Milo 3 😁
Dunno about using the old girl's name yet, that's a big ask - but definitely carving a place in my heart, just need to get some more miles up.
True mate true either way it's some big shoes to fill
Instead of Milo what about Avocado?🤔😁
Marvellous 🎉❤
Thats cool mate, nice rig 👍
looks mint Roothy!
Looks fantastic mate 🇦🇺👍
Love that Keswixk green Roothy.👌🏿
Stunning
That looks Bloody Fantastic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Improved no end 👌
Just another example of why people should listen to John when he says "get over it!" when talking about the vehicle he's chosen. Good onya Roothy, enjoy your new ride mate!
It was choice ande choice alone, not always easy to buck the trend but the best rides seem to be outside the norm for me anyway. W#e will see! There's heaps more Mahindras on the road l;ately so I'm noit the only one!
So sweet....very nice. I do like the front opening RTT option with the platform, some where to put a chair and smelly boots, and safer to get up and down the ladder.
I totally agree!
Looking mint, when do we get to see this girl out and about.......
Thanks for the share 😎🤙
Damn fn epic work 🔥🔥
Now I am sold this looks great
That tent entry off the rack is a brilliant idea mate. Looks like stonka touring rig mate. Enjoy!
A beauty 😮
Nice build and very nice colour...now you have this can you give a small rundown on the orange Landie in the workshop...please...
Wish we could get it here in Sweden, would be my next one 🤠👍
Bloody nice rig
One nice looking rig John 👍🇦🇺. Milo MK2🤣😂🤣. Just a shame Steve and I can't give you Brunswick green roof paint for it 😜.
Nice rig. 👍
Beautiful
77.5 series Mahin'ota! Nice one, Roothy.
It's actually a 69 series
Beatiful
WOW.
She’s gorgeous Roothy!
Bloody nice
Full credit to you
Roothy and Mahindra should partner for a special edition offroad double cab pik up with all the bells and whistles.
Aha - the MSV theory again!!! Woulde need Ben and Ryebuck to make it work but I reckon he'd love that too.
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY You can take inspiration from the Mahindra Karoo from South Africa. But the Aussie edition could be named after the toughest outback trail. A couple of ideas would Mahindra CRT (Carson River Track) or Mahindra Uluru with rock painting decals.
Then do a youtube series tackling the outback.
Looks great, with a bit more weight! Engine upgrades next?
Frikn awesome
Tinted windows would really set this off nice, especially against that green paint job.
Yep, thinking about that - only experioence I've had with tints was peeling old ones off so far tho -
Roothy must be getting a sweet tooth in his old age!
Moved from Milo to the Peppermint Crisp! 😅
Damn it, I want One 😮😅
How’s the GVM on that now? Looks much better well done
See how long it lasts on corrigations
Love da roothy
Pass on that for by though
I'm a green person, I love the colour. It wouldn't stand out as much as it does if it was a white although its very impressive.
Cammo green - great for sneaky bush camping....
Wow Roothty very flash a really quality build.....You will need to wear RM Williams & Handbrake will have to frock up & wear heels!!😅 Congratulations
We'll have to put mine and yours side by side Roothy and compare..... looks great though mate.... I may no longer have the most custom dual cab Mahindra in Aus... your's is a step ahead with the paint job.
On ya Grant = where can I see yours? Hopw you going with it? Always l;ooking for tips from fair dinkum travellers - cheers
It looks heavy now. A big green hippo. It is a pity it does not have the power of some of their other vehicles.
Good enough torque from factory to push through the brakes in low range. That's all you need
That colour really changes the character of the whole vehicle, suits it down to a "T".
I got to ask ? Whats the weight on the rear axle ? Awesome rig..Well done.. Love the colour..
Not sure altho I'd reckon there's600kg tops on the back - am looking at suspension and chassis stuff yet = we'll see!
Any idea on the wheels and tyres? Having a hard time finding options for mine... currently have the A-Line Lynx with 245/75/16
I am definitely in love ❤️, 😅😅😅😅.
Well we all want to know the cost of the fitout.
Namastey ❤
watch out Toyota, Land Rover, and Grenadier!!
Hi Roothy, it's green just like Milo and Milo 2 were. Will it be as good as Milo? Cape York on the cards?
Nothings as good off-road as Milo - but I reckon a Cape trip will try her out nicely! Just do the usual work up to it thing! Thanks mate
Very well built, looks great. Not sure about the rooftop being around that way, seems like a waste of the platform.
How is the GVM on this?
Past that the other day at manly
The finishing touch for black accent would have been black door handles to match the canopy and black the mirrors.
Otherwise, awesome 👍
So for unsponsered people, aprox what would a package like this cost? She looks mint!!! Looking at getting one over here in NZ
Contact the team at Ryebuck Engineering. They have build packages available at point of sale, you can buy and take delivery of a car like this from day 1
Smick
I wonder if this is a one off build by Ryebuck Engineering or can it be ordered with a new vehicle from next door? Pay the cash and pick your new MSV up in a few weeks?
I reckon if you ask they'll deliver - and it';; be a true custom!
I wouldn't swap me 80 for it mate but it would be close
Wouldn’t been much change out of 30 grand for that build up and probably mates rates
True and true! But nice to have a choice at this end of the career -
It looks great, but I have misgivings about the weight, especially when everything for a trip is loaded up.
I carry no more weight than is absolutely necessary.
But, I am a very basic traveller, swag, tuckerbox, water, fuel, tools and spares. Not even an Esky.
Yep, my biggest issue always - weight! This isn't that bad and is part of my testing the Mahindra anway I reckon although got a feeling we might pull the roof topper for a Cape trip - you'
re rioght, simple is always bhest. The stuff some people take......
Can you please share the price of build??
It's a mix of stuff I had, things given at cost, and price - I'd reckon to buy a new Pik Up and do this thru Ryebuck would be in the vicinity of $80K - maybe less -
A white roof would of been reminiscent of something!!!!
Hey Roothy,
Did you do anything about those bog awful front seats. Had my first sit it an S11 today with view to purchase, crikey these are the worst and least supportive seats I have ever say in/on.
All bums must be different - or maybe it's after Milo - but I love the seat anbd so does the wife - she always like sitting tall. We use canvas seat covers on everything.
Fuck I can’t lie that looks good 😊 and I’m die hard Landcruiser boy but fuck that’s nice😅 she’s screaming for bigger rubber tho
You sound like a Cruiser bloke thru andf thru - and nothin' wrong with that.
I'd like to know the reliability of these vehicles in say 10+ yrs time
Hopewfully so we can compare them to everything else they sell these days - I agree, time will tell. I've placed a bet -
Just call her Avo... Avo, halfsister of Milo
You pedal these Mahindras so hard I’m surprised you didn’t greet ol’ mate with a ‘Namaste’🙏🏾🇮🇳
Namaste 🤘🏾
Now get out there and use the bastard
Nice one, Roothy.
Taste is a personal thing, and I've never liked the look of the Mahindra.
However, I wouldn't kick yours out of bed for farting.
I bet it didn’t come close to Pat’s $250k Yankee job.
