+However, as with every vehicle, all Jimny generations have their weak points and potential for improvements in areas where the manufacturer skimped (or made an oversight) during design or construction phase.
 Also, there are some improvements and modifications which go "beyond" the vehicle's mechanical design "contours", but they make a significant improvement for certain usages.

 However, if the vehicle needs to be used in mixed conditions (on road, city, highway, job, family, and all kinds of all terrain use), the goal is just to improve it and modify it "sensibly" - while staying within the legal boundaries and within the logical/practical usage boundaries that will satisfy all of those usage conditions.

 For example, replacing cloth seats with leather seats, or installing mud flaps should be perfectly legal.
 On the other hand, lifting the vehicle isn't in many regions of the world.
