Goldmember!

Well, long time lurker now so I thought it was about time I said hello, based in Scotland just outside Edinburgh and bought my Jimny (2000) back in November last year in anticipation of the bad weather.

Its a second car and was a bit of an impulse buy having looked at about 100 Pajero's in the days before I bought it! - but I was convinced by others that the colour was 'fine' lol - and it was quickly nicknamed Goldmember :laugh:

Anyway, have already put wheel spacers on, fitted a set of Grabber ATs and have now decided to start turning it to a little project by painting it Nato Green soon! - not going to be off-roading with it, just want it to look like a 'funky' little toy!

This is a pic of it when I got it, pretty stock, clean with 70k ish miles and fsh - more to follow!

'I like goooooold,'
Cool! Looking forward to the progress.

Tidy we Jimny you have there 'welcome' along ...................

Don't paint it! Gold rocks

Ah good another gold one the best colour

Nice motor.

Gosh and I thought I was unique.

And you turned down a Pajero too, what on earth???

And here are a couple of pics to show the difference with wheel spacers (taken before I put my general grabber ATs on though, which makes it look even better)

Well.............. inspired by Shima's post, I've ordered my 2.5 ltr tin of Satin Nato Green paint!

Watch this space :laugh:

Transformation started! - wheels changed to black for starters and preparing to sand it down for the colour change! :lol:

You couldn't find a tin of camouflage paint?! :laugh:

I don't want to see a nice gold disappear.
