Looks smart. I've always thought Jimnys a bit too cutesy for a fat beardy lad like me to drive but I've not got anything much against them.......
Apart from the same things I have against all 'modern' cars.
PAS, PAB, ABS, TC, DSC, ESP etc.

I just checked out his website! Looks good! I remember dymag, they were in Chippenham on bumpers farm weren't they? I'm just down the road from melksham in corsham, there's a few guys in Swindon as well. In the summer you'll have to come out for a gentle bit of Greenlaning up the ridgeway, it's perfect for standard vehicles, wont damage your vehicle and has good views!

Tidy looking little motor. An SJ with added comfort. Too new for my budget. Lol.
I'm sticking with rough and ready.
As scottie says, even standard they are a good motor for gentle stuff. A half decent set of all terrains and off you go. Most pay n play sites have non damaging routes and green laning is the same, plenty of good tracks for non modified vehicles. Even standard landrovers can get round them.

well he found me some alloys last night. He's gonna powdercoat them when they arrive. wont say colour as yet. And yeah Dymag was at bumpers farm. we are in corsham as well. Got her for a bargain. £1800.00. As for bah haaaing in the mud etc. i did that many year ago. Too old for that now and being my work vehivle i don't risk it. I do organize 3 events for combe action days every year for my car cub and if i have any spares i wil offer them on here. thats if u lot dont mind.

Ah cool, Corsham's a small town so you'll probably notice my SJ around! It's not exactly subtle
I'll keep an eye out an give you a beep if I see your Jimny
Feel free to post up any events your helping organise at combe etc. I head up there quite a lot.
What is your car club if you don't mind me asking?
