I took a few pics from across the road but didn't want to be seen pointing the camera into the cabin etc. This was the time when the Indian media were dragging Aussies through the mud day after day so it was best to keep a low profile when alone...
Of course its gonna have lots of room in there. They need to put as many people as possible in it. I remember Caterpillar had to redesign the cabin of their backhoe so it could fit 8 people inside.

Better to be riding squashed inside a vehicle than to walk 20km I suppose... The comparison with the Model T is pretty apt.
