On Gumtree - great looking little Suzuki

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

It's a tidy Lj80 that's for sure! Not many around in that condition but the price tag is a bit steep. £5k would be more realistic.

Tidy, but looks to have a lot of pigeon shit welding in the drivers footwell, and it's been resprayed at some point.

I suppose at that age it is expected!

Its a fantastic looking LJ but not very practical in many ways,its too good to seriously take off road,alot of money sitting around just for sunny fun day use,totally impractical as a everyday use and although a very tidy example not good enough for a private collector as a investment grade car.

So although its very good the audience for these types of LJ are very limited i would have though,you could buy a very nice Jimny or Vitara for everyday use and a SJ for serious off roading for the same amount of money as this LJ.Just my personal opinion of course.
Deceased.

I agree, it's the little things that bother me with this, wrong wheels, wrong seats, in my opinion a little expensive for something that isn't 100% correct,
