Trouble is John that I have a 9 month old and a worn out a Mrs. Plus I was cutting the boy's nails yesterday and nearly took off half his thumb! It's okish now but I think I'm going to want to get there and back in the least amount of time and maybe come back Sunday night. At which point a 5 hour journey in comfort will be preferable over a 6-7 hour journey listening to a Rocklobster and extreme mud tyres!

Oh dear, what are you like. Hope his thumb sorts itself out.
I must admit the ride in the Jimny would deter me too in your situation. Even in standard shape I would be put off.
I know it is a bigger motor but I always feel fresh when I have done a long trip (about 3+ hours is a long trip) in the Pajero.

When I took my Shogun down to Normandy (7 hours all together) with my offroad club, I jumped
out fresh as a daisy but the landrover boys looked like they had been to hell and back.

The other week my Jimny ticked over to 70k miles. I need to look up how many it had when I bought it and the date I bought it!
Today I moved a horsebox for the Mrs' aunt in a small yard. There wasn't enough room to get it where she wanted it with the Jimny and get the Jimny out, so I had to get inventive with the winch!
It doesn't get used much but it still has it's uses!

Today the Mrs took the boy over to her Mum's, so I had some time to spend with the Jimmy. I got the fuel tank guard back on after the fuel pipe popped off the top of the tank and I had to drop the tank but never got round to fitting the guard again.
I also sealed the exhaust as it was leaking where the back box attaches.
It's all good to go lanin' again now! The summer's coming and I want my boy to enjoy the countryside.
