The bad rep Suzuki's got was because of the Consumer Union conducting unfair testing, plus in real life as they were much cheaper than most 4x4s they were driven by people who were used to Minis and Moggies.
They made a documentary about it years ago. It's on YouTube in parts:

Sadly the fact that the reputation was wrong is only known by SJ owners, but by the general populace of this rock. I think the world would be a happier place if all small - medium vehicles were SJ based.

This spoiler clearly gives an SJ all the down force it needs to avoid an incident similar to that of the Koenigseggggg when it first went 'round the Top Gear track.
