Hi All,

I have some very basic questions that I need answering if possible please.
Before I start I must apologize for the questions and the fact I don't have a Suzuki yet but bear with me and read on.

I am looking to buy a Suzuki soon as a project to mess around with and possible customize etc
However, it has to be an automatic as my wife only drives auto cars and she might want to move it while I am not at home.

So, what makes of Suzuki should I be looking at that are autos, I know Jimnys, Vitaras and Gran Vitaras all come in auto although rare, are there any other makes of 4 x 4 Suzuki I should be looking out for?

Also, where is the best place to look for 4 x 4 Suzukis for sale apart from your website? I have tried Ebay and Autotrader but there are never any autos in my price range.

I was told if I buy a Jimny make sure its one built after 2002, any ideas why this should be crucial? If I buy a pre-2002 Jimny does it mean I will have problems with any customizing I might want to do?

Lastly, I live in Norfolk so does anyone know of any garages that specialize in modifications to Suzukis such as lifts, off road capability, winches etc?

Please let me know by emailing me direct at stevesaunders_59@yahoo.co.uk

Best regards Stevo

I think that Jimnys were galvanized after 2002 although that may depend on whether its Jap built or Spanish. Look for one with the M13A engine as that is the later, supposedly better, engine.
