I'd wheel it lol

[4.3LXJ]

It would be like wheeling a Suzuki Jimney, not the second generation, but the original. It had a 2 cyl IIRC in it.

awwww ... its sooooo cute .. :D

Lots of oddball vehicles out there that filled niche markets ... tis a shame that vehicle costs and nanny state legislation have killed off the selection that there used to be .. :(


Would be nothing like wheeling an early suzy 2stroke tho,

... coz they were a brilliant little beach buggy.

One I had - used to happily make noises - like that damned froggy ring tone ... as it flew past bogged landcruisers and landrovers whilst beachfishing.

Only had a payload of 2 blokes, a cattle dog, 2 fishing rods and an esky full of beer tho .. :D:D

Yup, tiny tots mobile. But so light they floated over everything
