I am going to get another one was created by Fieldsports
After a nightmare with fuel consumption a couple of year ago with my old S reg Jimny
I have the need for another little 4x4 so believe it or not I have decided to try another one.
I am going for a 2007 SUZUKI JIMNY 1.3 VVT JLX + 3 Door
Do you think these are any better on fuel ?
Any advice please.
Steve

Have a look on fuelly.com and make sure you're in UK mode (top left).
Obviously it differs between drivers, but it doesn't vary much between engines although maybe slightly better with the VVT.
Edit; i need to make a profile for my jimny, maybe you should too if you need to keep an eye on consumption. It's a good tool

Hi Steve
sounds like you're gonna buy my 2007 JLX+ :laugh: :laugh:
presume you'll be putting AT's on ?
I'm getting 28 mpg whether I take it easy or give it revs - makes no difference, presume that's what VVT is all about.
I do have a K&N filter and larger than std back box but don't know how much they hurt my mpg.
could probably get 29 or 30 mpg if I upped the tyre pressures, but personally I prefer better road holding and grip, so run tyres a couple of Lbs less
