Yeah it's probably wrong to assume a lift kit would adversely effect this, but it's certainly worth thinking about for some people such as myself.

It can be quite alarming coming from a saloon car to a small lightweight slab sided 4x4. When I got my first Jimny it felt more like flying a Tiger Moth than driving a car :silly: . You will soon get used to it and compensate for its different handling characteristics...:)

Just chiming in to say I've been offline a couple of weeks and just caught up. Thanks all for the feedback and opinions!

My SZ4 / GA is also fast nearing 2000mph as I neglect my motorcycle (usual transport) and I could not be happier with it at all!

I don't know about "2000mph" but I reckon when (if ever) I get my new Jimny up in the Highlands the windscreen could well achieve "2000 flies per hour"!

You are bang on the money with that observation. Couple of business trips last week and found the sun visors are also not wide enough and the sun kept shining through the large gaps. Thought this car was designed in the 'Land of the Rising Sun' and the Japanese would have developed a better system? To be fair I was driving towards the 'Land of the Setting Sun' but it was still an irritation.
