Welcome.

I'm from Queensferry and picked up my red Jimny in November. (seem to be a lot of red ones going around just now...)

I can thoroughly recommend the Off Road Center at Strathmiglo. Great place to take your Jimny and test it out and the instructors are really helpful.

I'm running BF Goodrich Mud Terrains. 215 75 R15. Had some light rubbing in the arches when off road before I put the 2" lift on but it's fine now.

I wouldn't recommend MT tyres for a daily driver though, they're pretty noisy and don't have great road manners.

With that setup I'm getting about 30mpg.

Make sure to post some pics once you get it home.
