Reluctant sale of my JB74W SZ5 in Brisk Blue -19 Plate

Unfortunately due to a change in circumstances I am reluctantly selling my 2019 SZ5 in Brisk Blue.

Car has done around 15k miles and has been well looked after. It is a real head turner, the amount of attention this car gets is unbelievable. Don’t think I need to mention how rare these little wagons are.

I have it up on autotrader for £21995 however would consider near offers for a quick sale. Any questions feel free to send me a message or ping me a text on 07800643048. Plenty of added extras with the car, including stunning BF Goodrich tyres. Currently away working at the moment but will endeavour to post more photos when home.

I will be sad to see it go

Cheers
Ash

That's a very fair price in the current market, l am sure it will soon sell.

As I was curious to know the market situation in my town, I searched "Jimny" on Facebook Marketplace and got 35 responses locally, that's just in and around Perth, WA .
Gen 2 = 4
Gen 3 = 19
Gen 4 = 12
There may be even more on Gumtree Perth!

I wonder if the bubble has burst? :ohmy:

I don't know the OPs reason for selling, but I guess a lot of Gen4s for sale now are due to either:

1 People falling for the looks, then after a few months of ownership realised it is too small for their needs or just don't like the driving style.


2 In the current pandemic people loosing work, on furlough cannot afford the new car they bought before Covid19 raised its head.

All of the above l imagine.

Also, the first Jimnys will be coming off PCP or finance agreements

lt was the same with the VW Up GTi that we owned, very popular and VW discontinued it.
Prices were high (and still are) but now there are over 100 for sale on Autotrader because they've all come off the PCP or finance. l expect a further surge of used ones will appear after three and four years.

A good time to look for a used Jimny would be three years from its introduction.

lt happened also with the last of the old Defenders, loads of people bought them in 2014/15 to replace their Audi's and BMW's
So for a while they were selling over list price.
Then having owned it for a few months realised it was no Audi/BMW
And as soon as they could, the Land Rover was traded in.

George C just made me look at the uk Autotrader situation:

GEN 3 - 63
GEN4 - 59

Not looked for GEN2, but its almost 50/50 at the moment in the uk.
