What's your 'other' car?

The jimny is wholly an off road toy.. Compared to my usual car the jimny is actually awful . Heavy clutch and gearchange, gutless, uneconomical and expensive to tax and insure.
Its double the road tax, nearly double the insurance ?? (no idea how that works) and horrible to drive.
For a 17 yr old 4x4 its in great condition and works as it should, drives smoothly and no death wobble even at 70 plus mph... for offroad use its superb, has the most amazing and fast heater and air con on the planet and is very reliable though.
My road car is nearly 3 times more economical, goes like a bat out of hell and is a pleasure to drive so I guess its a bit harsh trying to compare a 17 yr old budget car against a premium brand..
The jimny has two other "friends" in the form of a enduro bike and honda sports quad

I have a Citroen C1, a Peugeot 106 Rallye and a few motorbikes. Trumph Sprint ST955i, KTM Duke 390, Yamaha WR400, Suzuki GS500, Gasgas TXT250 and a CG125. Just enough toys to keep me entertained!

I have a Grand Vitara, and a Carry! And a 75’ Honda Goldwing project

2006 VW T5 Caravelle. 174 hp 4motion - for the wife
2007 Swift 1.3 4x4 - for the daughter
1987 SJ413 lwb project. Not a car yet, just parts.

My jimny is a daily driver. ?

Ah toys, things to keep the dark nights at bay.... I have simply accumulated these over the many years I have been driving and tend not to sell.
In no particular order:-
2009 Jimny JLX, not the other car, our every day drive.:laugh:
The toys:-
1986 Plums and Custard 2CV6 Dolly.
1960 Land Rover Series 2 SWB 2.25 Petrol.
1996 Yamaha TRX 850
2012 Triumph Tiger 800 Abs

1987 Yamaha TZR 250 YPVS

The Cub and the TZR are undergoing light restoration to hold off the rust, so not just a Jimny thing!

This is my everyday car, Bought the jimny as a bit of a dog/off road/ winter basher

My Jimny went a while ago in favour of a Junior which recently went in favour of a V6 Pajero which I alternate with my 2.5TD Pajero. I use my Suzuki Celerio for longer generally fine weather trips - it's a pocket rocket, 60+ mpg and zero road fund. I have to give Suzuki 10/10 for this. When the weather is naff it's Pajero time. The trouble is the roads round here are not town roads and the Celerio being primarily a town car is a bit out of its depth but copes admirably.

Love it. Funny how cars used to be small back in the mid to late nineteen hundreds and now we are going smaller again - or ginormous. lol I actually cannot believe how my early motors were so tiny cos they never seemed to be.

Yeah definitely, you should see it next to a bmw mini countryman or whatever they are called. back to basics driving is so much more fun
