Hi Everyone was created by owen1
Just bought my first Jimny and we picked it up today. It is a 2005 red manual vvt hardtop. It belonged to a friend of mine's father in law and it has done only 33000 miles.
Over the years I have owned many cars, including Land Rovers and Shoguns, and so far I am really impressed!
I bought it as an extra vehicle, partly to get around in this weather, but mainly as a run about/fun car.
A couple of questions if I may please:
1. Should it have plastic rear wheel arch liners? The holes are there for the clips but theer are no liners and you can see the chassis etc. If it should have them, where can I get some?
2. Workshop manual. I have read on this forum and seen on ebay several suggestions as to where I can get a CD type of manual manual but I have yet to see one specifically for a 2005 onwards model. Any advice would be appreciated please.
Regards
Owen
