Hi there guys,

My girlfriends faithful Suzuki Vitara is being put off the road today and I was wondering if there was a market for this sort of thing, any niche following, or as my gut tells me get the little chappy scrapped.

It's done 90k, has a relatively new soft top and runs fine. It's just got to the point that it needs four new tyres and maybe some work to the brake pipes to go through its MOT and with a new car arriving at the weekend there's not much point in paying out for it all only to get half of it back.

If anyone knows of any clubs that might be interested in it to break or whatever please let me know!

Happy Eater

Why not stick on Ebay?
or sell it on here?
How long is the ticket on it, someone will take it off you for a few quid.

Well, for not much you could lob some MT's on it, and a lift kit, and have something to throw about in the hills, and woods.

these little trucks do have a bit of a following, they are great off road ad are really cheap to fix when things go wrong, i would put it on Ebay and see what you get for it.

I'd suggest Ebay too. As long as you are completely honest about the condition it should sell as the Suzuki trucks to have a bit of a following.

I will have an Suzuki SJ413 on there shortly which is absolutely sound. No MOT but it should pass if someone has the time to put it through one.
