Sweet Kraxler – Hammer prices: Suzuki Jimny already a collector’s item!

Apparently, when it was launched in late 2018, the little Suzuki Jimny struck a chord. In any case, it took the hearts of many car fans by storm. But soon its sale was stopped again because of the emission regulations. Anyone who got hold of one back then can now sell it for far more money than they paid for it.

The Jimny has been available to order again since last year, but only as a two-seater truck version. And don’t ask about delivery times (although there are dealers who have one in the yard). No wonder that the car is already being traded at dream prices and has become an investment. It reminds many of the classic Land Rover Defender, which you can no longer buy. Like the Brit, the tiny one has a ladder frame, as well as rigid axles with stable three-link wheel suspension and switchable all-wheel drive with reduction. The ground clearance is 21 centimeters and the slope and ramp angles are suitable for off-road use: the slope angle is 37 degrees at the front, 49 degrees at the rear, and the ramp angle is 28 degrees. It is shifted by a five-speed gearbox, among the used ones there are also some with an automatic, which is no longer offered with Fiskal trucks. today you can find specimens with 10,000 or 20,000 kilometers on the clock for around 30,000 euros and more, as a quick look on the internet has shown. The online portal Carvago has even determined an increase in value of 100 percent for Germany. That is more than for a Porsche 911 GT2 RS from 2017. At that time, Porsche asked 285,220 euros in Germany for the hardcore 911 with over 700 hp. The GT2 RS was only built 1000 times, which is probably one reason for the significant increase in value of 60 percent. Today you would have to invest an average of 459,000 euros for the track tool. You get more than ten Jimnys for that. And I don’t exist as a truck either.
