I've only had my Suzuki Jimny a few weeks and already I've modified with a bunch of official Suzuki accessories. Check out exactly what I've done to see if I've made a mistake. Also, I get my girlfriend to drive it for the first time... So what did she think of it compared to my last SUV - a Mercedes-AMG G63?

Congratulations on your new Jimny. I'm a Bromley boy and once won a Fiat 226 from WJKing back in the 80s. Now I live in Greece. I bought a new Jimny here in February 2019. Tomorrow it will have its 2 year service. 15k kms. The Jimny is brilliant. I use it as a second vehicle in full agricultural use. Trailers full of logs and olives to the press. Plus towing a 1500kg boat and trailer up a mountain. Illegal on towing weight but local to were we live. Mine is a GL model in white. Like your SX4. I paid 17.5k EUR and like in UK they are fetching +10k. I'm not selling it is the perfect vehicle here. I don't like the replacement grill but good luck to you, if it makes you happy. The prices WTF!!!. I have the same rear wheel cover and floor mats as a gift from the dealer on purchase. Very decent of them. I have Thule roof bars exactly the same £70 by mail from UK. My tow bar was 650 EUR fitted, that was strangely expensive. We love our white base model Jimny. It's been sailing, skiing, oliving, wooding, fantastic. Come and see us facebook.com/olivestorecottage

The money for these accessories is objectively absurd, but with that said I didn't have any money until I was in my 30s so I have lived both perspectives. When you find your niche in life and the money that comes with it, you suddenly realize the value of time. So unless you have a genuine interest in DIY projects, I can see why some people are perfectly happy to pay this amount of money to a dealership to get their car done up. I think the accessories definitely improve the appearance a lot, and if I was buying this Jimny used 10 years down the road I would find the official accessories very appealing (assuming the vehicle was well taken care of, both cosmetically and mechanically). That's the thing about off road vehicles, they tend to be appreciated by automotive enthusiasts who also tend to appreciate tasteful OEM or OEM-style modifications. With all that said, if it was me I would have definitely done everything myself and bought the accessories from a wholesale outlet (if that was possible, here in the North America it is for most car brands and models). But houses and garages here tend to be bigger because there is so much space to build houses, so it is much more common to have a garage full of tools and the space to work on your vehicle.

@@YourMemeDealer power gets split 50/50 between the front and rear wheels and without an active centre diff (this may not be the right terminology), the wheels will try and spin at the same speed around corners, which is not natural as they all travel different distances. This throws pressure back to the drivetrain and can damage it over time

The kinetic yellow looks awesome, and needs no body kit whatsoever, so it is better. Mud-flaps simply not required and will break on an off-road overhang. In 2-seater mode the rubber mat covering the rear load area is brilliant, for the dog. You can almost touch the rear door, so reversing sensors are a waste of time, rubber floor mats work better than the carpet variety, the soft cover for the spare wheel looks good and I prefer the standard grill and standard gear knob. Summary - you massively cocked up.

That's mad. For £5k I'd have gone for locking diffs, a lift, bigger tyres, reduction gears in the transfer case and maybe a winch. They are things that actually improve a 4x4. The tow bar is the only worthwhile mod here, and it's one of the cheapest.

For those wondering why there are plenty of 4wd driving around with 4x4 engaged all the time, it is because they are have a permanent awd system with a centre dif that allows slippage. For a better explanation see here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5m3h4SebMd5qtk If you want to experience it for your self, try engaging 4H or 4L in a part time 4wd like a JImny and go around a roundabout on dry tarmac see how it feels.
