It is one of the few vehicles in which the sight of a rough road actually makes you excited.

Finally, 3 weeks after seeing my Jimny in the flesh laid my hands on the critter. Took delivery earlier today. First impressions in no particular order.
- Awesome ride and the perfect tool for ignoring all those idiosyncratic flaws thrown at us in the name of road building.
- One of the few vehicles in which the sight of a rough road actually makes you excited!
- The engine and gearbox are made for a laid-back style of driving.
- The transmission whine. It’s a sound that I am really not used to. Made me stop the car a few times and engage and disengage the 4WD just to make sure I was not driving in 4WD.
- Creature comforts are top-notch given the type of vehicle it is. Wireless Android sent me into raptures.
- The tyres look perfect to me. Not planning an upgrade in the near future.
- Steering weight feels fine to me. Not very hard not very light.
- Felt easy and agile to pilot.
- All-round visibility is great. Especially the wing mirrors.
