It’s tough to think of a car on sale at the moment that packs as much universal appeal as the Suzuki Jimny. In a world where vehicle design is becoming increasingly same-same and homogenised, the Jimny stands out with its unapologetically straight-edged aesthetic that harkens back to a bygone era. Personally, I’m a big fan of the little Suzuki . the Jimny is an absolutely cracking city commuter, one that zips in and out of traffic with the immediacy of a bumble bee and can be squeezed into the tightest kerbside parking spot without breaking sweat. The latter is made even easier thanks to excellent all-round visibility and a commanding seat position that lets you place every corner with ease. Which, in a city like Cape Town where you spend your life parallel parking, adds to the Jimny’s daily driver appeal. Although unashamedly utilitarian, the Jimny in GLX specification comes loaded with most of the accoutrement any modern motorist could wish for, Automatic climate control. A seven-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Cruise control. A multifunction trip computer. Electric windows. This flagship model also gets a rear 12-volt power socket, automatic LED headlamps and a small flip-up “stash” box in the luggage area. The Jimny is great around town, a proper slayer of the non-beaten track (in the right hands) and as enduring in personality and character as it was when it first drove onto the scene in 2018. Finance available and trade-ins welcome.
