Yeah it's a non UK model, more than likely built by Maruti, not all of those pics above look factory though, some might be custom built.

To be honest I'm not too fussed about the coil models, they are pretty much a jimny undreneath so have the weak chain driven Tbox and weaker axles :thumbdown:

Would be a nice base for a project though, fit some sammy or Yota axles, SJ Tbox and you're away.
Zuki Build

Coils what would be nice but i think if i was to put coils on an sj it will spoil it! i quite like the car suspension roughness :mrgreen:
