Except engines,gearboxes,ABS,brake disc sizes,CV Joints,Rear prop joint,Exhausts.Some of which are hard to get or dealer parts only and expensive.

and to be sure you realise that in 30 years the Jimny has to be the worst car I've driven on the road
there is something about them that makes you smile though, just a shame they aren't more comfortable, economical, faster, better handling, roomier, better quality ......... what the hell do we like about them

I'm thinking that a Jimny is a bit like sex... it may not be the best but AT LEAST YOU'RE GETTING IT, it may not be the most satisfying but AT LEAST YOU'RE GETTING IT, it might not be top quality, but AT LEAST YOU'RE GETTING IT.

You make my point wonderfully. Most other cars have more engine choices and component variations on the original options list that the Jimny has had in 15 years. And after 6 or 7 years, the manufacturer then brings out a completely new model with nothing in common with the old one...
