Rhino is not a model name It is just a nickname for Suzuki 4x4s. This is a 1982-85 SJ410.

There were so many of these running around in the UK (80's) with 'Rhino' logo's on the spare tyre ..I always thought it was the name! :)

Yeah that Rhino was Suzuki's logo for their small 4x4s (starting with the LJ) supposedly to show how tough they were.

I seem to remember they had a problem with them tipping over on rough ground?

stronghold :beer: on adding the rhino pic at the same time :lol: As for the rolling over, they don't tip anymore than any other small vehicle of the same type and size. Most of the tip overs that did happen were the results of people that were trying to drive them like usual passenger cars with a low center of gravity. Here in the US the Samurai (as it was called here) was th center of a huge controversy when Consumer Reports stated that they were easy to flip over. There was an investigation and Suzuki sued Consumer Reports, and it was found out that while it was true that Consumer Reports did flip the Samurai on their test, they had modified the standard course to induce the tipover behavior which did not occur while experienced drivers utilized the standard course. Like I said the problem comes from people expecting them to handle like a car, but like it says in the owner's manual for my 1992 Daihatsu Rocky. "Use common sense, don't expect this mpv to handle like a fast sports car anymore than you would expect a low-slung sports car to handle off-road."
