Jimny’s one-of-a-kind 4×4 attitude and capability attracts off-road loving, fun-loving, style-loving legends. We call them Jimniacs. They’re out in their Jimnys, having adventures, getting dirty, driving over stuff that is difficult to drive over.
If you’re a current Jimny owner – or wish you were – this is THE place to get your Jimny fix. So, buckle up and get ready to smile until your face hurts💚
Let’s make it official. Chuck in your deets and join the tribe to get first access to awesome Jimny offers, free stuff, discounts, merch and more. You’ll be in with a grin.
The Suzuki Swarm QLD in 2024 brought together Jimny owners from across Queensland and beyond for a celebration of everything that makes the Jimny community special.
Held at Samford, just west of Brisbane, the event welcomed:
🚙 220 Suzuki vehicles
👥 450 attendees
🛣️ Over 900km travelled by enthusiasts to attend
From classic LJs and Sierras through to the latest Jimnys, the Swarm showcased Suzuki’s rich 4×4 heritage.
One of the standout vehicles was Rod and Jenny Reardon’s beautifully restored 1977 Suzuki LJ50 from Cedar Creek.
Owned for 25 years, the LJ50 has a true Suzuki story behind it. Before its restoration, it spent years as a hardworking paddock basher and cow chaser before being transformed into the incredible example displayed at the Swarm.
First imported into Australia in April 1974, the LJ50 represents the beginning of Suzuki’s iconic 4×4 legacy, making its appearance at the Swarm a fitting tribute to 50 years of history.
Brad Duncan from Springfield brought along his unique fire-engine-red LJ50, presented as a flat tray utility model. According to Brad, it is the only LJ50 officially registered as a ute in Australia. After 10 years of ownership and four years of restoration work, this rare Suzuki was a true highlight.
The event also showcased the incredible creativity of modern Jimny owners, including the MaxTrax prize Jimny — a fully customised adventure build featuring suspension upgrades, a custom canopy, roof storage, solar panels, a fridge and onboard power setup.
From classic restorations to fully equipped adventure rigs, every Jimny had its own story to tell.
The Suzuki Swarm was a celebration of the passion, creativity and community that continues to make the Jimny one of Australia’s most loved adventure vehicles.
If you’ve somehow missed it, the Jimny Maroon Edition has officially hit the road!
This one-off concept has been turning heads across Queensland with its bold maroon wrap, white racing stripes and unmistakable Jimny personality. It’s currently touring selected Suzuki Queensland dealerships, giving Jimniacs the chance to check it out up close.
While you’re there, don’t forget to cast your vote on the big question – should the Jimny Maroon Edition become a reality?
If it’s stopping by your local dealership, make sure you swing by before it heads to its next destination. Trust us, photos don’t do it justice.
Every great Jimny adventure comes with the little things… snack wrappers, coffee receipts, bait packets or the odd tissue after a dusty day on the tracks.
That’s where the Baggo comes in. It loops neatly around the gear shifter to give you a dedicated spot for all those little bits of rubbish while you’re out exploring. When you’re done, simply empty it and you’re ready for the next adventure.
Whether you’re heading off-road, camping for the weekend or just chasing the next scenic drive, it’s one of those simple accessories that helps keep your Jimny as tidy as the day you left home.
Held on Saturday 1 August 2026 at the iconic Yatala Drive-In Theatre, Park Up & Pass the Popcorn brought together around 50 attendees and 35 Suzuki Jimnys for an evening celebrating the Jimny community.
Guests began arriving from 4:30pm, parking up alongside dozens of other Jimnys before spending the afternoon chatting, admiring each other’s modifications and comparing camping setups. From touring builds to weekend adventure rigs, there was plenty of inspiration on display as owners shared ideas and stories from their travels.
At 5:00pm, everyone gathered for the lucky door prize draw, with an incredible range of prizes generously donated by event sponsors including Suzuki Queensland, Solquest Campers, Get Good Gear, Zookhub, Gypsy Blush, Croc Hinge, Redgum Camping, and Jimny Girls Gold Coast & Beyond. Lucky winners took home camping gear, Jimny accessories, merchandise and adventure prize packs, making it a fantastic way to thank everyone who pre-purchased tickets and supported the event.
As the sun went down, the drive-in transformed into a mini campsite, with rooftop tents, awnings, lighting setups and comfortable outdoor lounges creating the perfect atmosphere for the evening. Everyone settled into their camp chairs and cosy Jimny setups to enjoy Spider-Man: Brand New Day on the big screen.
Attendees also made the most of the Yatala Drive-In snack bar, enjoying classic movie favourites including burgers, hot chips, popcorn, ice creams and cold drinks before the film began.
The atmosphere throughout the evening was welcoming, relaxed and full of genuine community spirit. Many people met in person for the first time after chatting online, while others caught up with friends from previous trips and events. It was fantastic to see so many Suzuki owners sharing ideas, showcasing their unique builds and celebrating their shared love of these capable little four-wheel drives.
Guillaume has been passionate about cars since becoming a mechanic at 18, with his Jimny journey beginning in 2017 when he bought his first 2002 model. After falling in love with the little 4×4, he couldn’t resist ordering the new-generation Jimny when it launched in 2018 and quickly began transforming it into a unique custom build inspired by Australian Jimnys.
Hailing from France, Guillaume is part of the ever-growing international Jimny community, and we love getting to know Jimny enthusiasts from around the world and seeing how the little 4×4 brings people together across different countries and cultures.
His Jimny, affectionately named Jim, features a collection of parts sourced from around the world, including ARB and Beihouse accessories from Australia, wheels from California, and lighting from Texas. Beihouse Australia became a central part of the build, with Guillaume admiring the quality and craftsmanship of their products.
A true hands-on enthusiast, Guillaume also enjoys designing and creating his own Jimny accessories. Using his mechanical skills and creativity, he has fabricated several custom additions for Jim, including a tailgate table, rear shock absorber guards, an ARB compressor housing for the rear storage compartment, and axle and gearbox breathers.
One of Guillaume’s favourite Jimny memories was attending the first gathering of the Suzuki Jimny Francophone Facebook group, where he connected with fellow owners, admired different builds, tackled trails together, helped each other through challenges, and finished the day sharing stories over food and drinks. Now preparing for their third gathering, Guillaume hopes the community continues to grow.
He enjoys discovering Jimny builds from around the world and connecting with other owners online, including members of communities like JB74QLD, who he hopes to meet someday. His dream adventure with Jim is tackling the Sommeiller Pass in Italy — a 3,000m alpine track offering incredible views and an unforgettable challenge.
