My Old Vitara Fatboy & SJ410

[mmac78]

Here are a couple of pics of my old Vitara. Bought in June 2010 - seemed to be nice and sound until MOT time came and it took 36 hours of welding to repair... I won't bore you with all the work in progress pics just one before and after should do

Before (couple of days after I bought it):

Work for MOT (May 2011):

You get the idea... It was rotten, and after alot of hours (36 hours to be exact) this was after the new MOT and sprayed up etc:

October 2011:

Unfortunately, I decided to sell it in January 2012 to get a newer car.

Then in the Summer of 2012 I picked up this SJ410 - it wasn't running right, and had a duff starter motor...but however I fixed it up, gave it a service and sold it on. Which I really should have kept!

SJ410:


Miss the pair of them, really should have kept the Vitara in fairness but we all make mistakes!
Now in the market for an SJ413.

Cheers all.
