Hi, I have an SZ4 40k miles in good condition full service history etc. Been offered a £5699 cost to change to a new SZ5. Any thoughts as to whether that is a reasonable proposition?
Thanks

If it is in budget then yes why not. An sz5 is always going to command a good premium.

Is the trade-in a gen3 manual, gen3 auto, gen4 manual, or a gen4 auto?  New SZ5s don't exist in Europe, so we need more info.

Sorry, put the wrong info in. The new car is the commercial, manual, the trade in is the Gen 4 SZ4 manual

So you’re looking to trade in a Gen 4 SZ4 for a new commercial Jimny? First thought is why? It’s the same car minus the rear seats and on top of that the commercial will command higher insurance and road tax. Long term your SZ4 is probably worth more because it’s got the seats and cheaper to insure & tax. Unless you’re looking to put the car through a business then I can’t see it being worth it.

I hope you have missed a digit out of the Gen 4 SZ4 trade in value of £5,699? I am not sure what year it is or condition but I would have expected it to be worth closer to £15,699 as a trade in.

When it goes on the forecourt it will be closer to £17,000 - £19,000 again depending on age and condition.
