How much is a Jimny worth?

Today we got a 54 plate Jimny traded in at work. It has 13000miles on the clock and has a full service history. It's blue and silver and has half leather seats. Had a quick look round it and it has the usual corrosion on the air pipes and brake pipes. A few knocks on the doors where the previous owner has just opened them into other cars.

I was wanting to know what you think its worth. I think my place will send it to block (auction) so I was going to put in an offer and see if I can add to the fleet!

If it does go to block I might see if I can have the half leather seats!

Cheers

just had a quick look on ebay in the classified ads and they vary from £3000 ish to £4500 ish.but if its got a few dinks you could possibly go abit lower.

That's a lot of miles for a car that is 7 or 8 years old!
I'm sure some one will come along who has done 200k on an 09 plate but if you are buying it is a consideration,

Mike it says 13 000 miles not 130 000 miles

£4000-£5000

If it has extras (towbar, mudflaps, gen mats and bits) maybe pushing £5500

Sounds like mine when i had it, slight knocks all over it

Women owners tend not to care in my experience. Bought it from a well to do type couple in Bristol, and it was their 20 something year old daughters... never been in 4wd, a golf ball dent in the door black-rubber scuffing along the drivers side

Within 20mins of getting it back to the midlands the rubber polished off and it was booked in to get the dents out (cost £20!). You'd think people would prepare a car if they were trying to sell it!

Well I just paid £4,800 for an 05 plate in good condition with 47,000 miles on the clock. A touch high compared with the "book" price but the overall condition point to it being a good one.

So at trade it must be £3000 to £3500 as a quick visit from ChipsAway or DentMaster and it would be upwards of £5000 on the forecourt.

Take a look here to see what the high end forecourt price would be and then work back on what the trade margin will be.

Not sure. I will find out on Thursday when I'm back at work. They usually hardly give them owt for a trade in! Robbing salesmen I guess! Good for me tho as I bought my Jimny when it had been traded in and it cost me ........ well I wont say but I got a good deal!
