I drive my Jimny daily, but also have other cars in the garage for different things.

1 Suzuki Baleno Hatch '95 Sporty little car for fanging around, does 175kph in 3rd with two more overdrive gears.

2 Holden Cruze AWD. Which is an Aussie designed larger version of the Suzuki Ignis, with wider track, 1.5 dohc engine, higher clearance, larger wheels and all the safety gear, airbags, ABS & EBD brakes.

3 Toyota Dyna truck for carting fuel etc to my Swampdozer (the swampy uses about 350 litres of diesel a day.

I have some mates in OZ that have imported their cars into the country.. but mainly the newer models.

as they only made 242 of my shape, and only about 190 or so still exist, 400SE's are becomming rarer ... plus the Classic Wedge shape isnt everyone's cup of tea.

:( Chipped MB A200 turbo.

I can drive it as I like 'cause it's silver and just looks like any other silver hatchback on the road. ;)

Not one of my favourite motors though.....

2004 Focus St170. Great handling but lacks the power that the chassis is crying out for.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

You've got to post a photo of your fourth "car" the Swampdozer!!

My daily driver is a Citroen C4, 5 doors, 5 steats, 1.6 Hdi, 110bhp, 50+mpg and only £30 per year road tax.

On the 8th Day God made the LandRover -
On the 9th day he swapped it for a Jimny.
