Hi all,
New member from Perth, Western Australia but originally from sunny Bolton.
Have a 2003 Jimny.
Use it as my daily driver and also have a 2015 Grand Vitara that the wife drives.

Welcome, that's tidy, it's nice to have another 'opposite side of the world' member, don't you think it's amazing that your as far away from england as you can get but you appreciate and use your zook exactly the same, go Suzuki for bringing people together!

Thanks all,
It is a tidy car for its age, but then again cars do last longer here due to the kind weather.
Add to that i was a panelbeater for 17 yrs (until 8 yrs ago), so still got a reasonable eye for cars, this one was 99% original (which i like) when i bought it.
Also this one 'really' did have 2 previous lady owners and 1 just used it for taking the dog down to the beach, i have the dog hairs in my roof lining and dog smell to prove it.
Its on 140,000kms now, you see many over here on 250 to 300,000kms, even the abused ones seem to live forever.
I hope i get that much enjoyment out of mine, its the most fun car ive ever owned, except maybe my mini, very close but i think the Jimny just beats it on its versitality.
