Dewclaw69 484 Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) i'd think about a jimny again. my lad is 6'3" and has no worries in my jimny. the jimny is spot on off road and yes its only a 1.3 but its quick enough. the biggest advantage of the jimny is that its really small and can get anywhere. i can turn round in lanes where other motors have to go on to find gateways to turn in. i had a vitara a 2.0 v6 and yes the ride's better but rust can hit them hard . all a jimny needs is a decent set of tyres and you're away. depending on what sort of off roading you want to do , there's always the subaru forester. probably the best all round 4x4 i've ever had but road tax price and fuel consumption killed it for me.
