It looks like they might have put the bulge on the bonnet on the petrol one now as well. Guess it saves making different bonnets.

Yeah there are a few new Jimnys around in the UK now.
- The approach angle has been improved again... as the '05-'12 jimny bumper reduced this... still not as good as the original '98-'04 model!
- New "APIO" style front grill and bonnet with scoop... and slightly different front wings. Generally a bit more butch looking.
At best part of 12-13k... i'd rather have an '06 Defender with 30-40k on the clock! Despite my anti LR stickers...

It is good news for those of us that generally buy ten year old cars though. I'll get mine once the old lady/teenaged girls have finished with it
