First snow

My wife got a jimny this year as an impulse buy.
Totally pleased with it but now the snow's here it's really come into it's own.
Every one at work took the micky but who's laughing now.
I have a Honda HRV but this beats it hands down.I feel like saying it's no fun as I cannot 4 wheel drift it like the Honda becouse it just does not move.
Nothing fazes it and going to work is actually boring.
The one thing that stops me swopping the HRV for one is the leg room & being 6' plus I do not think a long journey would be too comfy.
This was a great on the spot buy just in time for winter.

Hi and welcome!

You can 4 wheel drift them :evil: :evil:

Apparently the aim of 4WD off-road agility competitions is to navigate the obstuctions without undue wheel spin, which results in a disqualification :whistle: :whistle: - and I had posted the fastest time by a long way until that point

lol, you will 4 wheel drift when it gets as bad as it is here in scotland..... -11 10 mins ago sheet ice on the roads

I can drift an 8 wheel tipper in ice!!!!
We have 7" here on the Oxford/Northampton border & where the HRV can be put in a drift the jimny just drives round.Still the wife can keep her eyes open!!!!!

Jed60's Missus here: Yes it was an impulse buy, I actually wanted a six wheel Fire Truck:P Drifting? What's drifting? :ohmy: :ohmy:

We got the Jimny in September, and the sales man was saying then that you couldn't get hold of new Jimny's there was a waiting list. Our's is 3 years old, had done just over 11k (nicely run in!), and absolutely immaculate. I was a bit concerned we'd been sold a fake, after reading your forum try as I might I couldn't hear a single rattle anywhere:angry: but joy of joys have discovered that in the damp weather it does develop a really irritating squeek whenever you depress the clutch peddle:) A true Jimny after all!!

Many thanks for a great website.
