THE RIVALS

Fiat Panda 4x4

Fabulous little machine loved by the Swiss post office. More plush than the Suzuki but not as good off-road. £14,710

Suzuki Ignis ALLGRIP

Fourby-four version of Suzuki’s brilliant lightweight. Can go off-road but choose the Jimny for serious work. £14,855

Dacia Duster Comfort 4x4

Ludicrously good value. Bigger and more sophisticated than the Jimny but not as cool by miles. £15,195
