As said, the MT and this engine combo rocks, I could traverse any terrain I wanted to, gave way to vehicles on an incline (thanks to 4L), and feel sure-footed and confident

Replaced the Swift with a Jimny Alpha AT
Now, the Scorpio is used only for longer hauls; it is exclusively highway driven now, and I am still addicted to its torquey engine and the way it cruises without tiring me out. I went for a ~600 km drive in the Jimny on highways to get the feel, but save for very occasional highway driving, it shall be the Scorpio doing highway duties.
Went for a short trip to the hills. The manual and the engine absolutely rock, and the assurance & ability of 4L to reach those difficult home-stays / locations is unparalleled. A picture while descending the hills

Another random picture:
Scorpio is inching towards the 1.25L mark. Next scheduled service is at 1.3L mark, no issues which require attention/maintenance, everything is working as it should.
