No afraid not, just the stock 1.3L, it's mostly a cosmetic exercise.Tramp wrote:Yeah I like that, what engine is it? I can see the bonnet louvre so is it a 550 turbo?
They brought out a Jimny 'Street' special Italy only edition last year as well.

I'll be honest i was pretty dissapointed when I opened this thread and saw it. Looks barely any different to a normal jimny apart from the roof

Hard to belive the jimny body has been out since 98.
Still a smart looking design.
