The Sandking is an off-road utility vehicle appearing in GTA: Vice City, GTA: San Andreas and GTA: Vice City Stories.
The Sandking is a high-performance, rally raid car. Similarly to the Rancher, the Sandking appears to be based on a 1985 Mitsubishi Pajero Rally Raid Car with customizations similar to a Bowler Wildcat.
In all of its appearances, the Sandking is depicted with myriad modifications commonly associated with off-road car racing. The Sandking boasts large off-road wheels, a large spoiler, and several air scoops on the hood and roof. It has the words "Sand Masters Cup" written on the side and rear, and racing liveries, similar to the decals available in Wheel Arch Angels. The space for the racing number, however, is blank.
Although mostly based on the Rancher, the headlights on the Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories renditions are in a single unit per side, opposed to the two units seen on the base model, and the tail lights are more reminiscent of those found on the Bobcat than on the Rancher itself. These differences are barely noticeable in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, as the Rancher assumes its appearance with single headlamps and the tail lights of the Sandking are completely different from the Bobcat ones. This rendition has MMT-branded tires.
