Suzuki Club UK

Hi - recently bought an '88SJ and wondered whats going on with any Suzuki Clubs.

I bought a new SJ in '87 collecting it from Holland as you did in those days. Had a few Suzukis over the years since then. Saw my current SJ on ebay a few weeks back and just had to have it as same as my first one... My '91 Samurai had to go to make room on the drive tho

Did a bit of off-roading in the early 90s so think I'll get some bigger wheels and a set of muds on this SJ and start playing again

I live in Solihull - what goes on around the middle of England?

Take it easy...

to the club

Welcome to the club, I'm looking forward to you posting some photos. Back in 87' I bet you were the cock of the village with a 413 whilst everyone else had 410's!

Ive been called many things over the year but I didn't expect anyone to be quite that forward....calling me a cock on my first day...

'87 was great but I'm loving this mid-life crisis thing...I get an excuse for all sorts of new toys

I'll get a snap up but to be honest I havnt actually taken any yet

I said cock of the village, you know like a cockrel strutting & preening, you being the only one with a 413 and everyone else with 410's! Not just a cock! I'm sorry you thought that! Yeah it will be nice to see some pictures, i like the older sjs is this one tin or soft top? 87 was a special year for me too..... it was the year I was born!

Any way welcome to the club

Thanks for the welcome so far

There were plenty of 413 tin tops around in mid/late 80s but the only way of getting a 413 rag top was to import it through a UK dealer but instead of collecting locally it had to be collected from Holland. It was actually a lot of fun going over. There were 22 of us when we went and one poor couple had a crash on their way home - obv not so much fun for them

Ive pretty much always had rag top SJs as they are just so much fun. Bought a soft top Vitara new in '89 I think it was - mine was the first one the local dealer supplied which I thought was super cool at the time as people would stop and look at it.....but looking back...??... Had a tin top Vitara in mid 90s. It was a white long wheel base-didnt like that one so much - there wasnt the fun-factor you get with the little jeeps and it was the only tin top Ive had.

Anyway..pics. I'll try to get something sorted and posted

looks like you're into your zooks then!!
