Have driven a couple myself, dreadful things. The gearshift pattern was back to front and I was told to start off in 2nd gear and not use 1st. In that case, what is the point of it having a 1st gear if you don't actually use it? The later generation ones weren't much better...

Those 4 litre things were slow, but they had some torque in them and would pull off in second gear fully loaded.

Look at this little belter. Shame the original driver's seat isn't present, but you can't have everything.

I bought one of these back in 2007 - they are a lovely old thing to drive.  @r.welfare picked me up from the station if memory serves.

The one that took us down to a cold AS meet-up at Ace Cafe in the depths of winter?

The driver will be glad the seats missing - I pity the passengers, I drove the later Non dog window 45, drivers seat was like a plank...my OH at the time complained about the passenger seat, as the Jak was Rammed under it and didn't fit...so left a large item sticking up in the middle...was fun to drive and would Tokyo drift round islands without must provocation, also did 'off the clock' when needed J898ODH
