Suzuki Jimny Lite 2022 – Too much FUN, it's the FEEL of the CAR, when you jump in!

GREAT FUN CAR. Could be the "Last Real 4WD! (2023) ... Having driven it for a while now, 1000kms plus, pack a bolster on those long road trips for extra comfort, as seats quite "hard" on long, long trips (14.5km/l) ... and Windscreen is "bug" magnet, so maybe coat with something like "Rainex" to help keep glass clean, but driving and going "off road", ANYWHERE ... still FUN!
