I have my reasons for not owning one. I'm from Solihull and know a couple of people who work at the factory. I've been round the jungle track, and my parents wedding car was a series 1 that my uncle still owns.
However, with £2,500 budget, and a fear of rust, I ended up with my 50,000 mile 52 plate jimny. I'd like a landrover, but only if I was more mechanically minded, or richer.
And besides, the Jimny does me proud. I like suprising people with it.
All the pics are up on flickr
The best are;

Georgie V8, do you have any pics of me (orange 90) going through the muddy bit? Think your missus/friend/gf (dont know which) was taking some?
Alex is Georgies husband...
I haven't, hopefully Georgie has, she took more photos than me.

Cheers for a great day out guys! Despite the annoying end with a flat tyre and a flat spare and a damaged bonnet and I think now a buggered UJ twas a great day! Lol. Don't think dad was overly impressed but not much worse than last Sundays damage to the roof that he inflicted lol.
Definitely a great set of pics!
GeorgieV8 and Lifechooser; u guys can come again despite the embarrassment of the slitty making it decidedly further than I ever could have imagined lol, I think the claim that it was better than a standard landrover off road might have been a little strong but I'll let you off.
I was also gutted I never got to out do Alex where he got stuck =) but c'est la vie, next time!

I've put 3 videos on Youtube
YouTube - l1fechooser's Channel
They are;
"Sticky stuff stuck", "Sticky stuff in ice" and "Wet bypass". Sorry stickystuff, but you did make a good target for filming. I'll upload some more later.
