Well then!!!

After all that thought and wondering - what I ended up doing was NOTHING!!!

The reason ... We are saving for a house and have found out how much deposit you now need to not have to pay nearly 7% interest on a mortgage! Something I can not bring myself to do, especially as they want to lock you into it for 5 years!!!

That shock of reality has halted any plans I had of further modifying the Jimny and it's all money into the Savings account.

Not what I wanted at all.

I had plans for a nice cage and winch bumper at the front and heavy duty bumper at the back and to go over to our club and show the Landover 90's how to do it.

We still have out 410 for the club though and so I have put the larger tyres I have bought for when we use the Jimny greenlaning on the SJ and somehow they are not rubbing.

Sunday will be the day of judgement for them though!!!

Thanks for all the advice I was given though. If the purse strings losen up, I'll be straight out to buy a winch and bumper!!!
