We got a Jimny! Alpha AT.
I'm not big on naming automobiles myself. But ze wife has aptly named it Mowgli, and I think that name suits it so so well.
My wife and I have been big on motorcycles until now. So our ask was essentially an adventure tourer on 4 wheels to replace our 6 YO Ciaz, whilst being usable anywhere, everywhere. The cute Jimny fits that need to the "T"!
All we've done so far is add the door visors, door cladding & leather seats from Suzuki. Have also added a 70mai dashcam.
We also added the wire covers on the rear door.
I've gone through the entire 288 pages and some videos as well. Some great stuff out there.
We're looking to add some functional storage options. No change in tyres, mechanicals and electricals as of now.
We'll also be looking to train formally, so we're better prepared to handle this vehicle. The last thing I want, though, is for us to get addicted to off-roading as a hobby. Automobiles as a hobby should be made illegal!
Leaving you with some photos.
A quick run to CCD!

Jimny v/s Thar (3 door). Wife for scale.
Some rough roading over the past weekend.
The in-laws' 800 and our new Jimny. Even though the Jimny is a modern automobile, they both feel nostalgia-inducing.
