Selling our modified Suzuki Jimny project car (regret?). The time has sadly come for Jonny’s wife Chops to part with her JB74 Suzuki Jimny – the first of the new models to sell in the UK. Jonny bought this car as a surprise Christmas present for her days after its registration in December 2018. It has been a quirky but characterful family car since then, with Jonny adding numerous accessories to the Blue-Black pearl top spec SZ5 model.
Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.
In this episode Chops explains why it is time to part with her ‘Jessica’, and commissions some paint correction and minor repairs with Nuovo Detailing ( https://www.facebook.com/nuovodetailing/ ). Jonny then shares some of his car selling pearls of wisdom, before the pre-sale process is complete. The Jimny holds many memories of being The Late Brake Show family wagon, but also being a little trooper in all weathers and terrain. Now it’s time for someone else to enjoy it.
