look what we bought
Permalink  

we had a bit of a discussion the other night, mr glassies has decided that he doesnt want to take his

realy good holden off road into the bush as in real bush,so we bought a little suzuki jimny im stoked with it

now when we want to go bush and dont want to take the big car we shall have this little car with the engel

in the back hot water system food and clothes ,then we shall be building a aluminium trailer with a tent

that will fit on the top ,so the colorado will be for tar roads and good dirt roads only with our daydream van.

 

its such a cute little car small but it will do us for trips when we want to jump in and rough it for a couple of months

just got to sell all this stuff house and business so fingers crossed.

Love it Della. I always wanted something like that for years till I turned to campervans. Enjoy the bush with Jimny.

They are an amazing car and they will climb trees given a chance and to top it off they run on the smell of an oily rag also being so light you cant bog them, have fun keep smiling

Geeee, if that's roughing it, I want one.

Looks great and a lot of fun in the playground with that toy and I tell you that for free.
