So a shoot we deal with want to get rid of their sj...

They want to swap 100 pheasants (£365) for it...


I took these photos about 2-3 years ago

if it has the rear hardtop, what are they worth?

Other than that its axles engine and box, probably £250 worth there? If the boddy is sound, MOT and flog?


Help :D

If it's good enough to get an MOT without much trouble, then I'd have a uneducated stab at at least £600 for it. It doesn't look too shabby either.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

agreed ed....a mot'd zuk will fetch 6....but I'd look at more 500 on season ...untampered sj are less common than tin tops in bristol but times are tight and you can pick up modded zuk for 700 at times.....so....with the top id about 5-550....oh....what mileage we talking here? :?:

considering my old 410 van that needed a lot of work went for £280 I'd say that's a good price if it's in good condition.

Make sure you sell it to a deserving owner that won't cut it up :)

I might have the chance to get a '94 white samurai, mostly standard, except for a weber carb and power steering... from some random guy I met today. Probably going to be about 6 months though

I drive past a garage on the way to work every day and it has had a blue SJ parked down the side of it for the past couple of years. I keep wanting to buy it but I have no cash and I don't have the time to sort our one SJ, let alone two!
Although it tempts me every day, I know that I want my next SJ to be a 410 hard top. Everytime I see it though I can't help but dream of making it into a road burner SJ, it would be lower than a snakes belly with a soft top pick up back and a vitara 1.6 engine with twin swan necks and x2 twin choke webers possibly with a hot cam :cowboy::
