Piglet 3...sort of

Post by donkeychomp » Mon Apr 23, 2012 1:19 am

Well here is Piglet 2's replacement, Vitara JX 8v injection.

Not my cup of tea but needs must when the devil vomits on your doormat.

£500 with a years MOT, small amount of rust blisters, nothing serious.

Drives fine, and way quicker than my old SJ, but it needs the usual mods, off road tyres, lift kit etc.

Those side steps have got to go. It does have freewheel front hubs which is a bonus.

Staggered at the road tax...twice as much as an SJ.

Any ideas are more than welcome! (not a gallon of unleaded and a match, please).

Looks tidy! Vits are quite fun to drive I think!

I'm not really a vit person but that one looks really smart! Give the wheel rims a lick of paint & it will be like new, £500 is a bargin for a tidy truck like that!

Looks nice enough.

Think you summed it up yourself.. Steps off and tyres on... Go play!
