We Drove the £60K Twisted Suzuki Jimny — Better Than a Defender?

In this video we drive the most extreme Suzuki Jimny ever built — the turbocharged Suzuki Jimny rebuilt by UK specialists Twisted Automotive. What happens when you take one of the world’s most loved off-roaders and add: ✅ Turbo power ✅ Luxury hand-built interior ✅ Proper suspension upgrades ✅ Serious off-road capability …and then charge nearly £60,000 for it? This isn’t just a modified Jimny — it’s a completely re-engineered machine designed to be faster, quieter, more comfortable, and still unstoppable off-road. 🚙 In this review: 00:00 – The most famous Jimny in the world 01:20 – Turbo engine reveal 👀 04:00 – Luxury interior transformation 12:40 – First drive & acceleration test 15:30 – Off-road capability test 19:00 – Is it REALLY worth £60k? 28:50 – Final verdict 🔧 Key Upgrades Turbocharged 1.5L engine (~165hp) Custom suspension with Bilstein dampers & Eibach springs Hand-finished leather interior Upgraded infotainment & sound system All-terrain tyres from BFGoodrich 🤔 The Big Question Could this tiny 4x4 actually be more fun than performance cars costing the same money? And is this the ultimate small off-roader now that vehicles like the Defender have grown so large? Watch to the end — the driving section completely changed our opinion. 👍 If you enjoy honest car reviews, subscribe for weekly drives, rare builds, and cars you don’t usually see reviewed properly. 💬 Comment below: Would you take this over a performance hatch or luxury SUV? #SuzukiJimny #TwistedJimny #CarReview #OffRoad #Turbo #4x4 #Automotive #UKCars #BuckleUp ----------------------------------- BUY OUR MERCH: https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/buckle... ----------------------------------- Join Channel Memberships:    / @buckleupshow   ----------------------------------- Support what we do, and get some bonuses too!
