Overview
This is an exceptional, investment-grade example of the highly sought-after Generation 3 Suzuki Jimny. Combining an incredibly low, verified odometer reading of just 47,000 miles with a comprehensive, sympathetic restoration.
Unlike the vast majority of Gen 3 Jimnys of this vintage, which have suffered from severe corrosion or harsh off-road abuse, this particular vehicle has been meticulously restored to a premium, "better-than-factory" standard. It looks, drives, and presents immaculately.
Restoration & Chassis Structure
The Achilles' heel of any classic Jimny is rust. This vehicle has been completely inspected, treated, and protected to ensure long-term longevity. This was bought from Beaulieu Road Garage, after being fully restored.
Chassis & Underbody: The chassis has been completely cleaned, treated, and preserved. Blast-cleaned, treated with rust-inhibitor, and fully undersealed and welded.
Body Mounts & Boot Floor: The notorious Jimny rust hotspotsincluding the rear boot floor, jack compartment, and body-to-chassis mounting pointsare entirely solid, clean, and free of corrosion.
Panel Work: Professionally resprayed in original factory color to eliminate minor age-related blemishes / Completely original rust-free panels.
Mechanical Condition & Maintenance
With only 47,000 miles on the reliable 1.3L VVT petrol engine.
Engine & Drivetrain: The engine starts instantly, idles smoothly, and pulls strongly. The gearbox is precise, and the clutch operates perfectly.
4WD System: The vacuum-operated four-wheel-drive system (2H, 4H, and 4L) is fully operational, engaging and disengaging quickly and smoothly.
Suspension & Braking: Fitted with new OEM-spec shock absorbers, fresh brake discs/pads, and fully refreshed suspension bushings to restore original ride quality.
Wheels & Tyres: The original factory alloy wheels have been professionally refurbished and are wrapped in matching, premium MAXIS Worm Drive tyres.
Exterior: The paintwork boasts a deep, brilliant shine with straight panels and perfectly aligned gaps. All plastic arches, bumpers, and trim pieces are pristine, showing no signs of fading or off-road scuffing.
Interior: The cabin is remarkably well-preserved, showcasing the true low mileage of the vehicle. The seats show zero wear or bolster collapse.
