Finally got my jimny :D was created by Alex09gp
Well it's been a stressful week since buying my jimny with the clutch going then wheel wobble, but it's all sorted now. At 21 I decided it was time to stop looking for the fastest car possible and find a more interesting car. So I decided to go the offroading route.
So I sold this....
And bought this..
And I have to say I absolutely love it!! Obviously it is a lot slower and doesn't go round corners quite as well but it sure is a lot of fun!!
Just ordered a 2" lift kit with the usual bits and going to get some bf goodrich km2's.
Future plans are..
: Extended brake lines and remove anti roll bar
: Snorkel
: Manual hubs
Thanks for reading

Going from 163bhp cooper s to a 1.3 jimny is very different but the jimny can go places the mini never could so it is well worth it and parts are so much cheaper!

Can i ask what you're paying for insurance at 21? It's just i'm 22 paying £500 fully comp. for mine. Just wondered as i don't know people my age that have one.
Nice choice

Hi, I pay £524, I added my dad and sister as named drivers which brought it down from £600. The mini was £1400 as I bought it before my 21st bday lol.
