I love it, a proper return to the old LJ/SJ, puts the current model Jimny to shame a bit. :side:

My only hope that it gets a simple engine, as much as a modern, complicated turbo will look good on paper stats I think simplicity is important for a vehicle like the Jimny.

I'll believe it if & when I see it. ;)

Living in the 1960s as I do, I like my cars to be shaped like cars

e.g. Mk1 Subaru Forrester, Mk1 RAV4, Mk1 Nissan Xtrail , Mk1 Range Rover (in general, the Mk1 is the best of the series, before manufacturers see how cheap they can go with paper-thin steel etc.)

There is no way Suzuki are going to buck the trend of identical SUV monstrosities with something like that. I'm surprised the date wasn't April 1st :)

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

Well I did ask if it was true because even I can't believe my good luck - if I could get one. It looks like an SJ to me full stop.

I refuse to believe that would ever go on sale in Europe.
SUVs look like Vauxhall mokka, new vitara, Audi Q anything BMW X anything, Ford whatever it is, qashquai, Hyundai thingie, current Forrester, RAV4, etc.
Without the badges I couldn't tell you which was which. They is what sell like hotcakes (and in 2wd form too, for the tax break).

People who are still living in the 1960s are not a market sector in this country.



Though I did notice the silver plastic undertray on the "new" jimny, a nod to current style...

I'd like it in the UK though.
Am I living in the 1960s then??
