Phillip,
Mate go for it. The rocky's also have a much thicker panel than most, so it might be seen to be stronger in the bodywork. The later models (post '94 I think) were coils all round - make sure you go for one of them.
The only drawbacks I see are the tall cargo area (bit like a discovery) and the lack of range - biggest tank available is about 105 litres.
Not a real "rock crawler", but a great little tourer.
If you are happy with the Zook, why not a G Vitara ??

Phillip - I've just returned from a 5000k trip in my grand vitara. Granted we didn't get into the 'real' outback - only the flinders rangers and the
gammon ranges but we used all the back roads we could, not sticking to the bitumen. Mine's not new, about 3 years old but only has 50,000 on the clock. It's a V6 and we had it packed to the gills with
camping gear. I'd highly recomment it.
