G'day, ok i know i'm going to offend some people but it has to be said, when my dad brought this car home i could not stop laughing, i just didn't get it! the thing is tiny and has a little 1.3 litre engine i just could not take the car seriously.

So this went on for a while dad drove it and loved it and i put it down all the time, he put about 100k on it and finally decided to sell his beloved jimny, He was going to buy a subaru xvs i think its called so anyway he comes over to show me his new car and shows up with a 2013 jimny haha i couldn't believe it.

So he was planning to trade his old jimny in but the car dealership only offered him 3k so i said ill sell it for him, so i cleaned it up and drove it around for a week and then decided to take it off road.

I fell in love!!! the thing is an animal it was going everywhere my mates cars would go, took it on the beach and the thing just floats, its so light! so straight away rang dad and said ill buy it haha he was pretty happy, i pop over his house once a week and we just talk jimny talk now haha.

Anyway all i've done so far is tinted the window's they are 5% pretty dark and i scored a set of brand new khumo mt on sunnys for 400 on e bay great buy haha and fitted a hi low converter to the original head deck to i can run a sub and an amp.

Planning on just a 2 inch suspension lift at the moment nothing to crazy just yet as its my daily driver.

Welcome to the World of Jimny maaate ;) They are surprisingly capable vehicles and fun to mod. Silver is the best colour too. I've had my Spanish version of the Jimny for 13 years now, changed its' looks a little over the years. It accompanies my bulldozers and other earthmoving equipment wherever I go.

Thats understandable as Aussie is dominated by landcruisers and other large engine trucks, I definitley need to get tints that dark it looks great!

How do you find the Kumhos?
