So can you really commute and live with one, all day every day?
Oh yes, certainly can with a Sigma engined version. As long as you don't put it into a ditch of course.
15-18,000 miles annually (my 09 4/4 has gone from 28k in Aug 12 to 54k in May). Still at 54k
but she should be back soon...

Must agree 58000 miles on a 2009 4/4 Sport, Add some remote grease points for the front suspension and grease after driving in the rain as well as a 1000 miles dry and she'll be good.
I'm working on a hard top for the winter, but with some work to the standard 4/4 Sport door tops and soft top they can be water proof.
Door top
1/ fit strap to top front of door top to stop it heading south at speed
2/ Neoprene foam sheet cut to shape, to inside of door to stop drafts and water ingress (poor mans leather)!
3/ Heavy duty M3 mushroom velcro to top of window and soft top where top of window meets.
Sounds like a lot but it stops water and the window top going south in the winter wind and at speed.
Soft top
only 1 tip
Duck tape, you will need a hole punch and a Stanley knife,
1/ Tape to top of screen, half on half off.
2/ Punching holes to lay duck tape flat at studs.
3/ Trim Duck tape from glass
Now the tricky bit
4/ With the remainder of the tape that sticks up, Stick to soft top Between the bolster and the front of the soft top, in a 90* effect, Not over the bolster because you don't want it visible from the inside.
Dry cockpit!!
But a hard top will be better!!
Jeremy hope you get here back soon.

Cain
