Decided on Vitara was created by BigT
Hi all after 12 months of looking at used jimnys and vitaras , and reading your exellent forum, finally took the plunge and bought a low mileage 2010 1.6 three door vitara. After six weeks of ownership must say I am very impressed with it, wait to see how good the four wheel drive is when we get some snow.

No low box in those is there? I think the diesel and 2.4 get the low? Should be spot in in the snow with the correct tyres.
We have a lwb diesel 2011, even in low with the standard tyres it wasn't the best but once changed it is a different animal. My Subaru sti was rubbish on the road tyres, I put winters on and it would cope with anything!

I've got a 3 door NGV too -
With a 2" lift (of course!) and some Yokohama Geolandar ATs...
I got a 2008 low mileage diesel as it has the -
Centre diff lock and Low Box too...
The petrol 3 door models don't have it in the UK
Wouldn't dare take it offroad though...
Also looking forward to some snow this year! :woohoo:

Forgot the tyres...
Standard size so they don't upset the gearing / speedo, etc...
Proper tyres, not remoulds, flies around at maximum permissible road speeds yet still a great pattern for the snow (and mud)
