Cheers for the comments. Very Happy.
Yeah dont f*ck with me cos ill just drive straight over the top of ya. mwhahah *evil laugh*
Yep Daves spot on 4L 6 cylinder. AFAIK Jeep Wranglers only come in this combo in this age group. I think perhaps some older models (CJ's) may have been diesels but only custom jobbies have V8's
Kym, Eventually ill get the plates on there only just bought it the other day, havent actually taken delivery yet and ill have to wait to receive the transfer papers to retrieve my plates.
The driving experience is def something of a different nature. Ive had 4wd's before but this is different again. It feels llike your driving a big balloon but then put the air lockers in and all of a sudden its a WRX on stilts. The pictures really dont do the jeeps height any justice, the tyres alone come up to my hips.
look out world here i come.

Got the classic about 7 yrs ago. Pretty sure it's not available anymore except in yellow.

Check out the website.

Cheers, I had them fitted as part of the deal.

Waited 4 weeks to get my front lip though!!!

Had to come from Japan as all OZ stock was used
on the STi TUNED models.

Also thinking of putting on my old 18" Prodrive P1 rims in gunmetal grey
and going the spoilerless look too.
