Cheapskate !
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Suits me to a T.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes would like to find a well looked after low mileage one I prefer its looks to the later GV.
What are you likely to buy next?
If I could find a good one of these would buy that. Otherwise not sure about a GV or Jimny both have things I don't like GV for looks, Jimny would like a 1.6 option for distance runs.
