Our Verdict
This is a very low-risk purchase thanks to its near-new status and a completely clean first MOT. We recommend buying with confidence, provided the price reflects the minimal mileage covered so far.
Given the vehicle's age and negligible mileage, focus your negotiation on the fact it is effectively a new car with a May 2023 registration but only 184 miles on the clock — ensure the price accounts for the steep first-year depreciation already taken. Ask for the full service history; although a 2023 car with 184 miles may not yet be due a service, confirm the book is present and the vehicle has been stored correctly to avoid flat batteries or seized brakes from inactivity. As no aggregate Jimny reliability data is provided, rely on the clean MOT and a physical inspection rather than assumed model traits.
The 1460cc petrol Jimny typically sits in a modest insurance group for a 4x4, though exact figures are not in the provided data; annual road tax for a recent petrol vehicle of this size is likely in the standard band. Fuel economy on Jimnys is modest rather than class-leading due to the boxy shape and off-road gearing, but with only 184 miles recorded the new owner has negligible fuel cost to date. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance and basic maintenance for low mileage use would be around £800-£1,000.
The April 2024 MOT recorded no defects, so there are no failure types to investigate from the history; however, with only 184 miles covered since May 2023, check for issues linked to long-term storage such as a flat or degraded 12v battery, tyre flat-spots, and lightly corroded brake discs. Inspect the green paintwork for marks given the vehicle's age and confirm the 1460cc engine starts cleanly with no warning lights. Verify the mileage reading matches the 184 miles on the MOT and that the V5C matches registration BX23LWR before purchase.
The Suzuki Jimny registered BX23LWR is a May 2023 green petrol example with a 1460cc engine that has covered just 184 miles as of its April 2024 MOT. Its only recorded test passed with no defects, indicating the vehicle has been barely used and well kept. With no aggregate model reliability data available, the assessment rests on the individual history, which is exemplary for a vehicle of this age.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Suzuki Jimny, so this guide relies solely on the individual vehicle's clean test history.
