I don't think the writer comparing a small 4x4 to SUVs etc was ever going to result in an even write up.

A bit of a waste of pixels unfortunately.

Is the Fiat panda the nearest competitor to the Jimny? If so why not take it to the pay and play site and see how it performed against a Ford Raptor?

Motoring journalists are like car sales people, 99pc of them give the rest a bad name.

The Autocar review is OK, much more realistic than the Plop Car one.
However l still don't understand the continuous references to haw bad it is on the motorway.
I've done three long motorway trips in ours, and it's been fine.
But the road tester's other vehicle is a Bentley Continental GT.
Hence the comment about not taking the Jimny on the M25, and that the Jimny is "incredibly noisy" which is just nonsense.
Unless you've just got out of a Bentley Continental GT, that is.
An awesome car, as you would expect for a starting price of £151,000.
