Bloody gold digger! I'm taking your observation as gospel lord Lambert. In that case i'll show her the back seats, and be done with it.

Back on the waiting list for Marie J Rottencrotch!!

I have a White SZ4, it has all the same gizmos its the infotainment, heated seats leather steering wheel, LED lights, alloys and a couple of other bits that are different but the braking, lane departure, auto lights etc all the same. The standard lights are amazing and better than the Xenons on my other vehicle I personally thing the auto lights and auto dip works spot on for me, I get loads of comments about how cool my steelies are and the tyres look chunkier on them too, the black handles contrast the white lovely, I had my windows tinted for just over £100 and colour coded my mirror cases and the front bumper moulding (where the overpriced pretend skid plate accessory fits over) on the front bumper myself. I didn't get a model choice but I am thrilled with the car and personally for my needs I would have not paid the extra for the 5 as it suits me fine., enjoy it!

Tomorrow we should be collecting our new Jimny. Last summer we nearly bought a late reg white Gen3 SZ4 but it didn't have aircon so we thought we'd wait for the new model. I suspect we've been suckered into thinking we need lots more goodies, but realy we don't.

Are your windows tinted with a plastic film? Our S-Cross came with them as standard, the windows are manufactured - tinted. They stop too much sunlight and preying eyes but are easy to see out of and don't feel oppressive in the car.

Looking at SZ4 pictures I thought the wing mirrors are already black along with the door handles and bumper? What do you mean by 'colour coded ' and 'bumper moulding'?

The mirrors are painted black on the SZ5 and are just black textured plastic on the SZ4, I painted mine as I am a painter and like mirror cases the same colour
as the car, the front bumper colours coding as in the attached picture, I thought there was too much black plastic on the front and couldn't afford / justify the silver trim that you can buy from the dealer that fits over the top to look like a protective tray so I painted it in the same colour as the body too. My local tint man did my rear windows one step darker than the standard SZ5 rear tints but thats just because I have sign writing on mine and I wanted the background to be darker.

That's looking good. The additional white makes it look a little less contrived. The graphics help too.

Impressive. Yes I think a balance of black and white really works.

Just looked at the cost of a Suzuki ‘bumper front lower trim’ - £415.40 - wow.
You say the mirror housings are textured, did you just apply paint or first remove the ‘texture’, if so how? And the bumper ?

It seems we’re not getting our Jimny today, Suzuki are waiting for the boot liner and rubber mats we ordered, they’re still on back order.
