All parents wants to get the best toys for their kids. Well, there are some who love to build something themselves for their children. One such guy is Shakir, a talented man from Kerala who created a miniature replica of Mahindra Jeep for his children. Shakir is a resident of Areekode in Malappuram district, Kerala who has become quite a sensation on the internet for his Jeep replica.

The miniature replica of the Mahindra Jeep SUV is fully-functional and comes with a removable soft top. It was built by Shakir for his son and it took him around one year to complete the vehicle. Initially, the Jeep replica was powered by a 1000-watts motor but Shakir recently added an engine as well sourced from Bajaj Discover motorcycle. The mini SUV is giving a fuel efficiency of around 35km per liter. Moreover, the jeep comes with a power steering, working headlights and manual gearbox.
