New to Suzukis

Post by airhook » Tue Feb 23, 2016 12:19 am

Hi all,
As far as :suzuki: goes ,I'm a complete newby.
I have a Land Rover Discovery 2 that I've had for 12 yrs & maintained myself + a bit of help from the local garage for the heavy bits, like gearboxes out 3 times.
I've just bought a 1997 Portuguese Vitara 2.0 TD for my times out there.
This you'll find difficult to believe, I got it with 24 months warranty, 1 yr parts & labour , & 2nd year labour only.
Everything seems to work, thermostat doesn't, but that's minor.
So, here's a pic.

Welcome, that's a nice tidy GV, I never used to like the look of them but I must say, these first gen GV's are really growing on me. I think it must be there two tone paintwork.

Love it,

Well, it will be a daily driver...................................... to get to the beach.
It is in Portugal, so, off-roading will be involved. :doublethumbs:
As for the mods, we'll see. :twisted:
