We're slightly challenged by not having any new ones for several years, while older ones continue to be scrapped.  There are lots of Gen4 cars in the photos.

It was such an awesome experience and generously hosted by Suzuki ZA. Nice group of dignitaries from Japan made the trip too.
Got to see the pre-launch 5 doors out on the 4x4 route too.
All round great experience.

We had about 80 last year so if every brings 10 each I reckon we can beat it.

Amazing gathering and even better to spot your own car Saxj.

You're suggesting that I have till next summer to buy another 8 jimny, do they all need to be full sized and driveable?

The world record we set was for the most vehicles to turn their headlights on simultaneously, so at least the headlights need to work, I'm not sure on the scale.
