i like it because of the thought that people must watch traffic as they walk or drive and notice how every car is pretty much the same on these roads and its pretty boring, and then they see a pink anus steaming past

Well, it was poking fun a bit at how SJs are bouncy, noisy and lean over in corners.

this is just it, there is something magic about the sj.

i was in somerset at the weekend for a mates birthday. 160 miles covered, mud, water and snow (yes snow!!!) all flying! and i did not stop grinning! well maybe on sunday, i was to hung over to do anything apart from concentrate on the snow covered road!

I just love it! Especially on days like yesterday when everywhere was flooded and you see all the 'normal' cars turning around whilst I just cruise on through.

Not to mention when you are sat up in a car park and all the kids start going 'wow dad what's that, I want one!' or the random people who ask 'what is it?' and just all the general stares

Folks ask me about my SJ quite a bit. There's one chap on the Humber bridge toll booths who I've had several brief conversations with. He's after one to share with his girlfriend as a winter car apparently.

One of my best moments in the SJ was when an old cnap in his 70s on holiday stopped me as i was getting in. He said "Thats changed alot since I sold it as a new car" He knew the reg, said he could remember about 95% of those he sold, and then told me it looked really good and liked what id done with it .

You could say he was old and said that to every SJ owner he saw, but he knew it was originally blue and he came from the same part of kent it was originally sold in.

Made both him and me smile

my sj does the same to me every time im out in her im smileing i think its coz there so basic and fun its a proper little rattle box and i love it so much ,plus the fact that you can go where most other cars cant .

Hmm i suppose it's just me thats scared to death of my sj then haha, i love getting into my golf after rolling about in the sj for a days play does that count? ;-)

It's the way it makes me smile every time, wether its the bad road manners that it more than makes up for offroad.

I've only driven mine around the storage yard and up and down a private road but it is so much fun!! can't wait to get drivin it on the road though, I have a 137 mile drive to bring it down here but I have £1800 insurance to pay for plus the tax..
