Hi Raithrover and welcome
here's my two-pennyworth

SZ4 = £1300 more then the SZ3 for which you get
metallic paint, 15-inch alloys, rear window privacy glass, part-leather upholstery and two-tone roof rails.

SZ3 = any colour you want as long as it's white :dry:
metallic paint = £400
Local window tinter (proper company) £140
alloys = £400 - £500
part plastic seats = they are nicer :kiss:
two-tone roof rails = WTF :huh:

personally I'd pay the extra for the SZ4 and get the quaser gray - don't get the horrid blue one :laugh:

also don't believe the hype = spec states Average mpg 39.8Tank range 350 miles :ohmy:

any particular reason why you want a new Jimny just for road use .... have you driven one yet in suburbia :( :ohmy: :blink: :S :pinch:

Welcome

I popped into a dealer the other day, purely to grab a couple of oil filters,while i was around i had a look around a brand new SZ4 in the show room.

Loved the leather with 'Jimny' embroidery... very smart... but £13,000!?

I don't see the point in buying a new Jimny. I'd buy a year or so old with virtually no miles on the clock.
They had an 09 out the front for a tad over £7k so thats 6grand you have saved!

It certainly needed some bits, the aerial had been snapped clean, and it was navy blue, so needed a complete respray ;)

Adam, I dont see the point in changing it from navy blue to just blue. Theyre both great colours :-)
