well its the GF thats buying it, shes been put off the fronteras now, i have suggested discos and cherokees etc but she says they are too big  :( so its lookin like a vitara now, im still trying to get her to get a SJ but no luck.

Im a bit concerned about the driveshafts now tho  :shock: how much a problem are they? and any other advice regarding the vits?

thanks for all your help so far  ;)

My mate had a 1.6 8v p reg,nice motor(apart from the rust)he popped driveshafts like there was no 2 morrow,he is a gentle (ish) driver and looks after his cars,but everytime he put his vit through serious articulation and floored it POP went the driveshaft usually taking the lot with it,we towed him halfway round once went we went laning cos he popped a shaft and then could only get 2 wd..........marjan!!!you know who im talkin about............as far as laning they will NOT go where a 90,disco,shogun,cherokee,SJ,landcruiser etc will go without serious mods,but if you want a day to day car they are perfect cos thats what they were built for,with a bit of mud fields thrown in.Get a vit,do nothing with it take it to tong or KORC and you will be coming home via the AA..........sorry to be a bit blunt but im trying to be honest and tell you what I think is right :D
