That phone holder on the dashboard turned the opening part of the video in an authentic Jimny experience where all other vehicles on the highway can be seen overtaking the Jimny.

Jana, you and Simon need your very own channel. Include Alu Can when needed but honestly you need a channel in your name.

Great video. Real enjoyed it. Some positive criticism. Please use a external mic with muffs on. It will decrease wind noise

Cool channel… congratulations on your Jimny, i see you still have the paper reg. They are absolutely amazing vehicles. I did Van Zyls pass in my FJ and my friend did it in a stock standard Jimny. Not even upgraded tyres… Something to bare in mind. The maximum load weight rating on a Jimny’s roof is 30 kilograms. That’s a road rating. Then take into account the dynamic load rating ( ie: driving on gravel roads ). And your load capacity on the roof is halved. So just because your roof rack can carry a bazillion kilograms. Don’t go over loading it. Enjoy. ✌🏻

Horrible fuel consumption for such a small car.

Will the gutter mount be available in multiple sizes / for other vehicles? I want to use the Alu Cab Load bars on my Land Cruiser to have the leveled roof tray and a leveled solar panel, really a nice low profile option! But currently I would need to source gutter mounts to your competition to use your load bar.

[@alu_cab]

Hi Felix, we are busy with the finishing touches of our Gutter Mounts and hope to have them available to the public within the next few months. They will be available for other vehicles too. Please keep an eye out for updates on our social media and subscribe to our newsletter on our website to be the first to know.

@@alu_cab Great thank you!

[@jonnosjimny]

Interesting roof storage. Is it only available in SA?

[@alu_cab]

No, the Roof Rack Tray can be ordered through our global dealer network. You can find your nearest dealer by using the Dealer Locator on our website 😊 www.alu-cab.com/dealer-locator/

[@jonnosjimny]

@@alu_cab thanks for the update. Might look into it.

[@eugenevockerodt8752]

will the roof tray fit a jimny gen3 2017

[@alu_cab]

Hi there, we have not tried that yet, but it should fit - as long as you have cargo rails to attach our Load Bars to. Here is the fitment manual of the Roof Rack Tray for reference: www.alu-cab.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Roof-Rack-Tray-Fitment-Instructions.pdf

[@CasperLabuschagne]

The problem with the Jimny is that it has only one spare tyre which means that you will be stranded in the Tankwa Karoo once you have your second flat tyre on the stock-standard "Dunlopers" the Jimny comes with. I will state outright that a Jimny has no business going to the Tankwa without BFG tyres or at a minimum General Grabbers.

Is emma single?

[@derberg8030]

The fuel consumption of those Jimnys are Horrible!! For the price you pay for a Jimny rather get a 2.4 d4d SRX Hilux.😉

Yes. we were! :)
