Description
Our beloved Jimny needs a new home as we need to update to something bigger. This car has is faults and it's bonuses. We've made some improvements over the years, but we now have a new fault that we don't the money to fix.
Faults -
Blown Head Gasket. We have been trying to repair with little success, but the car still drives pretty well all things considered. She's noisey while idling with a rattle in the gear stick.
The canopy needs replacing, it's over 10 years old now and has been used a lot. There is a bit of damage around some of the edges but is still intact and drivable.
There is signs of rust towards the front of the car under the bonnet. However we've had this checked and there is no problem / very typical considering its age.
Upgrades-
We replaced the steering wheel to a better / more robust model which greatly improved the handling.
We have replaced a section of the exhaust that was showing signs of rust.
There is a new Gearbox that we installed last year which massively improved the overall performance of the car.
We also installed a 2" lift kit from VitMods to improve the suspension. This kit is less than 6 months old.
Generally the interior is in good condition, but there are some areas that need improving / replacing - seat covers etc.
I am happy to answer more questions an anyone is welcome to come visit for a test drive.
