Finally! I'm back! Sold my Jimny about a year ago - I guess I got bored with it but I've missed it and the off road scene so much! This time I'm back with a 2 door GV. I went with the Gv this time just for sheer creature comforts. Very nice interior with some equally nice gauges.

Without further ado.... Here she is when I first picked her up. She's a 2004 1600. Only 80,000km

As you may or may not be able to tell, the roof, bonnet and bumpers needed a new lick of paint, so I did just that. Before modifying anything she will be restored!

Blacked out the headlights!

After... You can see the new paint as well

Welcome back. When I've driven GVs I've been quite impressed by how much better the ride is compared to an old Vit or a Jimny.
Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

Thinking about swapping my steering wheel for one of those nice leatherette wrapped ones from the swift, or swift sport

That is on my list of things to do with the Jimny, they aren't cheap to source though - particularly if you need the matching airbag.

Well, I'm in Jamaica, should be an easy and cheap source... Swifts and swift sports are very common here

How are the led head lights? Are they better than the standard lights, my light bar was by far the best mod I've done!
