    I lived on the South Island for four months during the winter of 2015. Every time I drove past a vista I thought this is the most beautiful view I’ve ever seen and nothing could match it. Then I’d drive around the next bend. I repeated that line a dozen times per road trip.

    My father worked with and for the warbirds over Wanaka and because of that my brother became a pilot in the RNZAF. He passed some time ago, he was from London and married my mother. Best memories I've ever had too. Great to see that. Long live the drunk piper cub pilot!!

    Now I do even more think about getting that little gem for wifey. That little G-Wagon (from its looks) that offers more comfort, technology and reliability than our niva did, before we got our D3. The new Jimny, as its predecessors, is not a 4x4 to underestimate. Though the space is really limited. It's really a capable rig of fun.

    I have one of these new Jimny’s. I downsized from a turbo diesel 80series Landcruiser with 2” lift on 33” tyres. There’s always a bigger and better of anything, but I believe the person having the most fun out there is the one who’s winning. Never underestimate the fun factor of this little car. The big cars are awesome as they’re big and tough and bad ass and ride soft ... but doesn’t mean they’re more fun. The Jimny is full-on 4wd and as fun as you could have and then drive home in a/c comfort with airbags and collision controls protecting your kids. And this model is pretty comfy really, even at 6’2”. It’s just great, economical fun

    Great video and good job getting a Jimny out. I’ve had an 80s SJ and great memories of it and now have a 2017 Jimny one of the last before this one appeared. Lots of fun and if you travel fairly light with max 2 people it’s totally fine for a few days. Will live out of it for a week at the end of summer on a many thousand km trip through Eastern Europe’s forests and mountains and cannot wait! Keep going Andrew you’re great!

    Glad you tested and seem positive on the new Suzuki Jimny, while looking forward to listening to your more in depth insight ; having received one myself & prepping to driving it in mountainous Greece & the Alps. Spending time between Greece, Alpine Europe and the Falkland Islands (where 99% of the road network is off road'' and about 99% of vehicles are 4x4) you should seriously consider testing 4x4 in this remote awe inspiring SubAntarctic region; where long range is a normal modus operandi.
