Really missing my SJ

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Really missing my SJ

Post by lazy rambler » Wed Aug 21, 2013 9:27 pm

As some of you may know I sold my SJ & Audi A4 back in January and replaced them with a :burn: Discovery. I got to say I've regretted it every day since.

Sure the Disco is faster, more comfortable & economical than the SJ, but it's slower, less comfortable & economical than the A4. So you could say it's a compromise between the two. But I really need a :suzuki: back in my life. Only problem is I can't afford two cars any more and no good Suzuki's are big enough to be my daily drive :thumbdown:

You need a Lwb SJ like twiss says :thumbup:

It's a shame they didn't do a Lwb Jimny.

I know it's a photoshop, but this would be perfect.

Just a thought buy another sj then buy one with only a decent back end chop the back off make a trialer and part the rest of the car out you would pay back the cost of making the trialer and more space. Smiles all round :D
