Don't listen to all these ingrates, like most I thought the Suzuki Jimmy was a bit of a joke 4wd-changed my mind last summer. Went to Iceland with my lady Jo, we picked up a jimmy and headed into the wilds for 10 days, camped and had a great time. The jimmy is a VERY capable 4wd, it can get through rivers and up tracks that you wouldn't believe, when you actually look hard at the thing you find it has a seperate chassis and fully articulated axles front and rear-it's basically a modern take on an 88" Landrover, and we all know how capable they are. They may not be the fastest or most comfortable 4WD but they can do mud, water, tracks the lot, and they don't cost a fortune.
