Yes, I think your right. Ive been missing out for sure.
No BS. If I scored the Jim out of /100, at this present moment, it would be 100. Thats not "new toy" bravado either, it really is a perfect little 4x4 in my eyes. An "anti-Clarkson" review is in my word doc being tidied up as we speak ;-0

I've seen worse. I think I'd describe that one as 'cliche-ridden' to the point of almost phoning it in.

Your bang on with this quote, this is what almost every journalist basis their comments on. The Jimny in whatever version needs to be driven differently on the road than a normal saloon car . I remember back in 2001 when I traded my Mini Metro in for a new Jimny, whilst driving home from the showroom it took me by surprise. The road to my avenue has a sharp left with a steep incline, I took the corner a bit too quick and it gave me a brown trouser moment. After that I altered my driving techniques to suit the car and it was perfectly ok, in fact I enjoyed driving my Jimny more than any other car I have ever had. I am sure that the Gen4 will have even better road manners with its bigger engine, wider track and steering damper..
