shotgun..willy 8 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 im picking up a vitara in the morning just wondered if anybody else has got one just wanted to see what they are like Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stubby 175 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I think they are great mmate, good introduction into 4x4's, yet not too pricey, cheap on tax, as they only 1600cc mine was a bargain at £500, because me mate was emergrating to oz, have used it around some orchards in kent on a nights rimfire shooting, and it works brill, only downside is no space, unless you lay the rear seats down, and then its only a 2 seater, so I bought a small trailer, made up a removable raised wooden lid, and use that to carry stuff on big ferreting jobs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mad al 146 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Yep, haven't anything bad about them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
comanche 2,799 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Yep, haven't anything bad about them Reliable. Simple ,relativly old -fashioned vehicle to work on .Like Stubby says ,a bit short on space maybe. The rust never sleeps but nothing that can't be kept at bay for several MOT's without too much expense.My Suzuki looks a bit like a patchwork quilt thanks to some very artistic welding. I'd have another. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Appreciate any info. TIA Edited March 29, 2008 by Tyke Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tyke 0 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Took the Vitara into a field today purposely bogged it in mud in 2 wheel drive and tried to get out but stuck good. Slipped into 4 wheel high she pissed it, so was well pleased, knew I had 4 low to back me up as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
