I much prefer the SJ to the other one, but a little 'lick of paint' on the bull bars wouldn't go amiss.

My missus loves her Jimny, just right for her as she is a town girl! I have used it off road and it is very able! Crap on long runs though, it is screaming out for another gear when cruising. Easy to work on as there is very little in it!
