My new toy! was created by Municipal Waste

Hi everyone,

I've just joined the forum after browsing the website for ages since deciding about 2 years ago that I wanted a Jimny!

I finally got my Jimny in late December (just in time for all the snow to be gone sadly) and immediately I am in love with it!

It's still standard for now as a) it's brand new and I still have a warranty so what's the rush? and b) I'm too poor from buying it :lol: Still, as it is the car is fine for green laning in everything but real slop and hopefully now the weather is dry it should have enough grip for a pay and play! I just love the fact that it's so small and get down even the tightest off road tracks and just so fun to drive!

I guess really it's my boss who holds the purse strings :dry:

Really tempted to change the tyres pretty soon but it's one of those situations where I can't decide to do that or to wait until I have the money to do something to the suspension at the same time and go a bit bigger.

I'm not looking to go completly mental though because I want it to be driveable... I'm maybe thinking of getting a set of BFG all terrains for now and see how it goes :) although I want to buy myself a module on Open University first.

I'm going to try some of those Maxxis Bravos in the standard size as for now I can't afford to do anything to the suspension and they're under £400 from Camskill!
