Well another Jimny has arrived in the family....1 daughter in Bucks , ourselves in Manchester and now the other daughter in Stirling!
Fate may have played a part in the latest.....her Ignis suffered from cost over value in relation to repair and due MOT....so we said just come and borrow our Jimny.....however once you lend something out that's when you'll definatley need it most, so I did a quick search and on that day a cabrio with hard top fitted came on eBay, with 12 months MOT . I messaged the seller who was
20 miles from her location, with an offer.
He replied with a counter offer , that was well within my thoughts. Accepted . He said he would deliver it as he was going to her village the following Wednesday anyway. Apparently he liked the part of my message that read "everyone needs a Jimny in their life!"
She's made up ......I'm slightly gutted hers is nicer than ours ......but ours is ours!

I thought we wer being loyal with 2 Jimny and a grand vitara, going to have to start pestering management for a landmaster too. Lucky find that red one being so close and with the fresh test, well found.

Sounds like you have done well. What's the rust situation like, given the part of the country you are in and its age? Have you dared peek at the boot floor under the hardboard?
