Good Points

Easy to drive rural and in town , so small it's a doodle to park, off road it's amazing.


Bad Points

Wind, Wind, Wind, it does not like a cross wind, found it best to drive it in 4 wheel drive in strong winds. Size wise (Often commented on), people should not complain, it is what it was when they bought it.


General Comments

Excellent little 4X4, I used to have a 2006 Nissan Micra, which whilst an great little car,was not what i wanted. Then I traded it in for a 2004 Jimny (My family thought I was Mad) It took me a while to learn how to drive the Suzuki Jimny on road and was somewhat nervous on the bends, but it has that certain something like a Morris Minor or Citroen 2CV that makes you love it. I am still a man though so have not given it a name, but it does make me and the dog smile. I have somewhat of a dodgy left leg so have the auto box, which to my great surprise is fab off road. When I bought it, it came with a lifetime warranty from a 3rd party and that's as long as I intend to have it, in later life I will likey plump for an estate when a young family comes along, but will keep Jimny as my second (fun) car forever. Basic and tough it has a long life ahead of it.
