It's sooooo cute!

Of course it's going to be tiny, about the size of a Fiat Panda I guess.

Mate has a top of the range Vitara and it's a fine car. Some of the plastics, switches and accessories are on the cheap side but it does what he wants.

Link seems OK for me.

Jimnys are might popular here in Austria with the farmers. They seem to battle through the snow pretty well in the winter. I have to say with the new one one, that it looks like they kept the box and threw away the contents!

I think that's its appeal.

Beats the overly pretty VW TROC, Hyundai Kona and unfortunately named Kia Stonic.

96 lbft from a 1.5 petrol seems a bit low.

Modern NA petrols usually make about 70 lbft per litre

Well Doc, you should know, if the ticker is less stressed then it's likely to last longer. ;-)

I don't know why the version for Australia should be longer but is given below as 3645mm.

The price for the manual is estimated as around 26,000 Aussie dollars, about £15,000 sterling but probably not that easy to estimate.

They mostly are for me today, especially at sub-link level. Must be the weather.

Maybe it has USA spec bumpers, the USA spec Fit is longer than the European spec Jazz for that reason.

That's what I wondered - even the Chiron has extra parts to the rear bumper in the USA to meet legislation... and most will probably remove this.
