Well at 1st I was thinking 2k for a 03 ish since the car was probably about 10k new and that's 12 years old. Then well OK they seem quite popular 2.5k, but quite honestly if I want anything with quite low mileage and unmarked body they seem to be about 3k+ . That seems way to much for what they are. I'm trying to persuade her to have an SLK Benz for not much more!! The ones I've seen on ebay and autotrader just don't appeal to me for one reason or another.

Having spent the weekend in the Buxton area where Jimny's appear to be quite common and reminded how "cute but tough" they look with the odd "Ahh look a Jimny" thrown in there I'm going to organise a viewing this week of an '06 plate. It has full history which is good and doesn't appear to be driven off road although this remains to be seen. Having to put my hand deeper into my pockets than I wanted to I still think the b***dy things are extortionate and a Micra would be a better choice, but what can you do. :S

Nice guide, I'm going to to see it at the end of the week if it's still there. Will take the guide and tear it apart.
