Very nice.
Having owned a little 4x4 (Suzuki Samurai) before i got the E92, i can honestly say that modifying a 4x4 as compared to a car is A LOT more expensive, as you have Tyres, Spacers, Lifts, Gearing options for Transfer Case and Diffs, lighting, bumpers, safety options,
It gets Hella Expensive :) but at he end of the day, the amount of fun i had was worth it lol.

Driving with the doors, roof etc. off is pretty cool. A diesel Jeep - not so much. If I were to buy a Rubicon I’d get the 3.6l petrol. The amount of money you spend on fuel will not be a patch on what you’d spend if a diesel Jeep starts going South.

Lets get @DieselFan's views on Jeeps :roflol:

I was going to post then thought I'd refrain from posting....

But since you asked.

I had a Saraha Unlimited CRD. It was lifted had the bumpers and all the bells and whistles. It was the biggest piece of shit I've ever had the misspleasure of driving it also wasn't a lemon. I've driven a few jeeps before (2 of my friends still own one, they both agree with my opinion but like the cool factor of the jeep) but I thought hey it's just a toy to tow the boat, cruise around town and what have you. I owned the vehicle for about 4 months. Mechanically it was perfect. But jeeps are put together like Lego. Although I think Lego is of better quality plastic. They're horrible to drive. Noisy which is why the give you a loud AF sound system as standard. Turning circle of an 18 wheeler truck. It was the worst car I've ever owned.

Having said that. If I had 6 cars and didn't some what rely on the Jeep as one of my dailys it could be a fun toy. However it would he a 2 door. They are very capable off-road. But as a town car I'd never own another.
