anyone use as a daily driver?!
i just like the looks of em, not sure if id ever take it off road i get the impression lots of people here off road regularly, but does anyone use em on a daily basis for work etc??
Re: anyone use as a daily driver?!
I used to use mine as a daily and offroader (or even a daily offroader ) brilliant little trucks for town and country driving, however they dont like motorways due to the lack of top speed and lack of power. saying that mine has been on a few motorway trips
I'll be using it as a daily again as of tomorrow because i'm selling my road car to fix another one i picked up for cheap.

I used to use mine as my daily driver, was grate fun! but like scott have used mine for a few motorway trips, but there not designed for them! best tip is to sit behind a lorry on the M'way and let his drag pull you along!

Mine gets out and about sometimes. But it rattels and shakes, and the induction is loud
Re: anyone use as a daily driver?!
I intend to use my zuk as a daily driver and offroader when I passed my test . 3 mile drive to college everyday plus any places I like to go.Going up and down the country for offroading events and to pick up bits. Why not lol
Might have to fit a 410 transfer box though as Ive got bigger wheels fitted
Mine hasnt got any rattles at the moment only a rock hard ride, but hey ho its life and its all I got
As for induction, that will come very soon when Ive fitted a snorkel and Ive got a loud stereo system to drown out any other noise

Re: anyone use as a daily driver?!
yeah, i had it for around 2 years as a daily drive, as said my work was only about 4 miles from my house so the poor fuel consumption and harsh ride werent a problem, I probably put around 15,000 miles on my sj in those 2 years, but then i got another job 26 miles from home, so I bought another car for commuting,
the sj was good though, great for 'tootling' down country lanes but as mentioned motorways were always hard work.
