Been lurking on here for about a month or so now and looking to get my first Jimny, iv been looking at getting one thats got engine problems or MOT failier as i can do all the work myself and the inital cost is less , Definatly needs to be a hard top as a rag top would get torn to shredds in the lanes (trust me i had a Paj J-top which was mostly gaffa tape after a few outings )
Anyway my names Stewart and im from Torpoint, i work as a welder/fabricator in devonport dockyard and am also a member of the Gnarly laners
Thankyou peeps

Ended up pick-uping my paj as the roof was to far gone in the end

You do NOT want one with engine problems. Engine parts are expensive, and good engines very hard to get for the single cam.
Get one with a bit of rust if you want to save money and get the welder out
If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

+1 on the VAG. What about a DSG auto box as well :p:p
