To be honest l can see why you would sell at this time, l think prices are at a point where they won't go any higher and will eventually fall back to more sensible levels.
And that's speaking as a Gen 4 owner.
l think that the Gen 4 Jimny will always hold its value well though, unless Suzuki re introduce it.
lt's so rare these days to buy a new car that increases in value after you bought it. l've been offered £24,000 for ours, which is obviously very good, but if l sold it and bought a regular car, l would lose that "profit" in six months.

When you say "indifferent and extortionate servicing" don't you mean absolutely normal customer service from a dealer? Although I am joking I would never get rid of my Jimny due to that as I take mine to other garages who know their arse from their elbow as I cant say the same about my Suzuki dealer. Even if the prices are sky high and which I believe have peaked I just love having a quirky and absolutely fantastically serious 4x4 but somehow silly car at the same time. Life's to short to drives boring cars. Enjoy your German motorway basher!

On the way home from the locks we went to the chippie. There was a group of lads milling around in the car park and as they were taking an interest in Tonka I stayed in the car for security reasons. Eventually they moved off but as the walked past Tonka one of them grinned and gave me a double thumbs up.
I used to get the same when in my SJ.

The Jimny is a great fun vehicle in a sea of new car dullness.
We tried various cars before buying the Jimny. All were competent but none were inspiring.
For most people these days, that wouldn't matter, but we wanted something a bit different.

In reality I don't see the prices being sustainable but unfortunately for me my need of a newer one put me at the mercy of the market. That said the only other option for me is a side by side quad bike and they just don't cut the mustard.

I'm very tempted to sell but I love driving this car so much!
If someone knocked on my door and offered me £23k+ cash, I'm not sure I could resist.
