Except the elephant in the room: you can never fit rear seats, as it's registered, type approved, and insured as a 2 seater van.

I paid £19,645.17 for my SZ5 spec Jimny. A new LCV is now listed at £21,099, an increase of £1453.83. Yes the SZ5 is a higher spec model but after 31/2 years, I would say the increase is reasonable.

I think they were overpriced by a couple of thousand back in 2019, although I suppose that as they instantly sold you could argue that they weren't!

I guess they were priced at what the market would stand rather than what they were actually worth...

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

A manufacturer will always want to sell at what the buyer perceives as OTT. It's far better, commercially, than what they see as cheap. Caveat emptor.

My SZ5 69 plate cost £18000 on the road. Four seat SZ4 cost £16000.
With so many new LCV's arriving a 2021 should be around the same price.
Jimny's are no longer IRON PYRITE for the vultures. Happy times.

No wonder the dealers are selling them at list or just below. SIMS near me have pre-registered theirs so they can sell them at the Sept price and save £600 before the new price comes in tomorrow.

Interesting as there are plenty on Autotrader with delivery mileage around £25-27k, they are all going to drop in price when 300 arrive. I can see dealers pre-registering them to sell at below list just to shift them (what with Xmas and the current economic state), rather ironic as some were pre-registering them to sell at above list.
