Thanks John ! Yup !! Nothing 'performance'.. Just a aesthetics for the time being. (Painted rims, bonnet square, etc. - Cheap mods!)

Once I'm done being a student.. I'll hopefully be able to start putting photos in the 'Build Thread' !! :cheer:


If it works well as is why mess?? :unsure: It seems like you were doing nicely. I go across a field or two once a week normally but the 4x4 is mainly for the winter.

A good point. I think, once these tyres have had their wear, I'll get some ATs and see how I get on!
Last winter, the Land Rover boys started to get fed up, recovering me from the wet terrain.

I also fancy just making her look a little meaner. Someone referred to my Jimny as 'cute' today. :angry:

Cheek of it.

I would like to see the ground clearance improved by going to a 30" tyre without going wider.

Yes, the tread doesn't look aggressive enough. I'd like to find something like this in 205x100x15

Did not like the look of my rusty radius arms but to paint them on the Jim was out of the question. So applied a coat of KURUST took half an hour to do all four all over.
