Grizzly's Jimny...

After a while of looking, and a bit of advice from the good folks on this ere great forum, I today went out and parted with some hard earned cash...

I've bought a 2000 W reg Jim with 70k on the clock. It's a very tidy vehicle for the year and on the whole, I'm very happy with the purchase.







I've not yet taken it up t'dale but she'll be heading up tomorrow. I'll post some pics of her while up there but this is the sort of terrain I work on.

I think you will be pleasantly surprised just what the Jimny will do as it is, go & have fun ..............

You will love your new motor and what she can do ......

Hey, your Jimny will look good in such an fantastic scenery !!!
That is what (or why?) a Jimny is made for.

Have lot's of fun with it... you'll be surprised...
Beautyfull pictures !

Cheers!

I specifically looked for a green one as it fits me, the scenery, and the work perfectly.

I've put all the important gear inside and I can just about fit it all in



We had plenty of rain down last night so I'll get to see just how she copes with a bit of wet ground tomorrow cos it'll be pretty wet up there. It was under 10 foot of snow in the recent bad weather, even the tractors got stuck

Speaking to Mountain Rescue and they said that there is snow down again above 650m... I go pretty high but I don't think I'm that high...

Took nthe Jim to work today to see how she coped and I must admit, I was more than happy so here's a couple of pics of her doing what she'll be doing every day now

I'm jealous..., don't you need some help?
Even during winter i will help you, i love cold :dry:
Beiing officially "authorised" to drive around in such beautifull landscapes is like every's 4x4 drivers dream (excempt the "lady's" in our other dreams).
You're a lucky man, certainelly that you can share all this whit your little compagnon.
Your child will have good memories from the drives into the fields with Daddy !

Aye, it's a tough job, but someone's got to do it :laugh:

This was just before the recent snows... The road (and I use road in the loosest possible terms ) was under 10' of snow and had to be dug out with a digger, even the tractors got stuck!

Wow, it looks really at home in the fields and the colour suits it. Wish they still did Green.

Here's a little video from today. It's basically a quick (ish) drive round some of the land I do mole control on. The off road footage is double speed and the on road footage is four times speed. It just gives an idea as to what I'll be doing pretty much every day in my jimny and the terrain it'll be working in

As I'd got the kingpins changed I needed to get back out to work as I'd missed 3 days. On my way I decided to check out a green lane a few miles from home. It's not the longest in the world and the video doesn't give you a true account of how rocky and steep it was in places. As it's only a short stretch, I drove down and back up it

On 3,10 min. was that a mole disguised as a rabbit? :lol:
Around 7,48 min., LOOK OUT... the moles are getting bigger... looks like sheeps but there is one that was loosing it's camouflage... i think that was why you new they were not sheep but moles.... :woohoo:
Just laughing a bit (green)... still jealous....

There you have some "Spaces" mate... woooooooooowwwww !!!
It's imense.... you can scream as loud as you want i think nobody will hear you!
I wouldn't feel safe without a high quality sleeping bag in the back of my car and my cell-phones battery fully charged during wintertrip's in case you need it when stuck.
