It will become a cult vehicle. Only circa 2000 in the UK. Stick it in the garage for 20 years and you might be able to retire in it lol.

Used prices are through the roof! Nothing less than £20k at the moment and the cars that are are over a year old with thousands of miles on them. New sz4s are 21k which is daft for a car with a list of 16500.

Leaving the EU won't Japanese cars cheaper (to answer someone earlier). We don't have a trade deal with Japan but we do as part of the EU. If we dropped out the WTO rules would mean Japanese cars get subjected to a 10 percent tariff.

I'd say the UK Jimny is dead and if you have one you're lucky. It's pretty much the only cheap car that is appreciating in value so is perfect for PCP. Don't sell it, garage it and buy a cheap runaround if you have to.

Not allowed to sell could well mean it's on hold for the MD s daughter, after all why tell the sales team? It strikes me a savvy dealer could keep a Gen4 on the forecourt to tempt customers in, then try to sell them something else. 4wd Swift anyone?

I know my garage is keeping our Jimny demo and not selling it, we are not desperate for the cash and the car is an investment opportunity for the future.

we do try to sell people swift or ignis or vitara 4wd but people who look at the jimny only want Jimnys.
