Moving to the Dark Side

Struggling for space, and suzuki refusing to give the uk a diesel version of the jimny has forced the move.
I'll no doubt pop onto the forum in the future, and see some of you at 4x4 shows... The jimny has been a huge part/obsession of my life for the past 4 years!
So if anyone is looking for a mint standard 2004 jimny with every conceivable extra... Including the in-famous bonnet guard, PM me... Bearing in mind the defender isn't due till the end of March
This is certainly not a farewell, but a little sad to think I won't be driving my jimny around soon!

Looked at quite some depth at the wrangler, decided it was all a bit 'pimp' and the depreciation bought tears to my eyes... Although clean used examples exist. I also liked the idea of roof and doors off in the summer.
I didn't find the driving position too bad in the defender... In fact it was quite similar to the jimny, just much higher and the tiny upright windscreen felt very odd, especially being used to the works people carriers.
I looked at new Jimnys, but I'd be paying a lot to get a scoop on the bonnet and nothing else. A nice pug diesel from standard would be nice. I'm not one for modding cars, especially changing engines.

If a 90 is the dark side and you need more space. Why not consider a Toyota Land Cruiser, Nissan Patrol or similar Japanese 4x4 ?
