Where would be the best place to look for a good condition low milage Mk3 Jimny - world wide?
As in places where they were sold, but the ravages of a salty winter weren't an issue?

That narrows it down to Britain, South Africa, India, New Zealand and Australia doesnt it?
India do not allow for export, and I am not sure if it has been sold there.
New Zealand has a climate on the south island like here in norway and similar coastal so they are probably rusty if not like here that all new cars are rust-treated. North island is more tropical, could be more rust?
Britain, well I have seen the pictures in here of all your rust. Rust treating is smart.
South Africa i am not familiar with the climate but i guess there would be dry in some areas, but coastal areas in the south would be more wet and rusty?
Japan, Most ten year old cars get exported due to the tax or something but japanese people are very tidy but the freight.
My best guess to where the best Jimny is would be from the dry parts of Australia but that sure is a distance if you plan on taking it to europe.

Edit Forgot Hong Kong and Singapore. lots of freight lines from there to wherever.
Friend of mine got a 80`s LJ80 from Singapore. It has no heater but AC

Prices I have no idea.

Norway 2005 Jimny M16A VVT, 235 BFG MT, 2" Trailmaster, ARB rear lck, 17%/87% high/low gears.
