The SUZUKI JIMNY (1998-18) 3DR HARDTOP SUV 1.3 80 JLX AUTO is a compact, three-door 4x4 with a distinctive upright shape. In the UK it sits apart from ordinary small SUVs: its short body and rugged character make it more of a little off-roader than a family-focused crossover. The automatic gearbox may appeal if you want an easier drive in traffic. mycarcheck.com recorded 376 checks covering 194 distinct VINs, a useful sample of interest in this version. The average private-sale valuation was £1,700, while checked cars averaged 78,000 miles and about 2,000 miles a year. They had around five previous keepers on average, so checking the history, condition and mileage carefully is especially worthwhile; these figures describe checked vehicles, not every Jimny. Best for singles or couples, it handles town and countryside trips, with genuine off-road ability that sets it apart from SUV rivals; rear space and practicality are limited.
