Hope you find a suitable start vehicle bud. They have come down in price a lot recently and aftermarket parts are all over the place now too.
Plus i'm sure you will add you own DIY to it too.

Welcome back dude.
I am currently Jimny shopping for Helen too.
Going the same route as you. Not in a major rush. Just looking for the right standard one then going to do something subtle to it.

Apart from the times when it was a broken down heap of midland rubbish it was tolerable.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

That's what they are good for, they do farm duties and tow well

you can't beat a little Zuki when it comes to an offroad toy though
