I drove one at some point in my days as a site engineer. It is brilliant in anything off-road, but if you expect to effortlessly cover highway ground in one, you are vastly mistaken!

Both. Also it is underpowered. It runs on solid axles. It's ok enough for back-roads, but I was not happy to have to drive in on the highway.

Actually, a good friend of mine had supercharged his Jimny with a Rotrex C60 and had managed to extract around 120 hp out of the 1.3l engine. That was quite descent power!
