Look at the second video, as long as it remains accessible. Here you can see how not only to create the weekend, but also ensures that there remains enough work for the week. And then again and again through the deep water, which then reaches up to the hood. Although the developers of Suzuki already have the ignition placed as high as possible. The LJ coped just 'only' 60 inches of water depth. And that horizontally, not first thoroughly dipping with the front of the car.

How well that there are still available a few follow-up models, because an ignition is difficult to dry out in water. However, the can not so simply achieve traction from a standing position, but need some start-up. What a good thing that the frame of the LJ is one of its highlights and does not avenge such a behavior with deformation. It's really tremendous what this car accepted, where it really comes from a motorcycle specialists together with its engine.

Obviously, the inspectors or buyers for the Australian Army have done a good job, as they tested the car for the purpose of introducing and probably demanded improvements. It was obviously designed for military purposes and only afterwards intended for civilian use. However, this was not at all the first but the fourth generation of LJ. Whose career began with a two-cylinder two-stroke engine in 1970. It is then again almost 200 kg lighter in weight and remains below 3 meters in length, important for Japanese conditions.

Probably the Eljot is launched at just the right time to enthuse the youth, only a few specialists really need the car. Suzuki opened with this model the market for lightweight and inexpensive off-roader. And the market in turn enables the company to qualify as a specialist for small two- and four-wheel drives in future. It follows then promptly SJ 410, the anything can even better with a slightly larger displacement. It follows then promptly the SJ 410, the anything can even better with a slightly larger displacement.

Incidentally, the first video shows the young Niki Lauda ...

Suzuki buyers apply as brand loyal, even if the quality will not meet always the Japanese cars is supposed to have. This applies less for the mechanics but rather for the formation of rust on all body parts made of metal, except the hood and the ladder frame. In between, you could partially use plastic parts here, but thus destroyed the historical coherence and miss the favourable registration as a historic vehicle in Germany. 08/14
