The best fun to have in the summer
We are delighted to offer for sale this 1981 Mitsubishi Willys Jeep (J54) that we personally imported from Japan and have subsequently UK registered.
This rare and sought after J54 model is registered as a Historic vehicle and as such it is not only exempt from the annual MOT test, but also has an annual Road Tax rate of Zero and is exempt from congestion charge and Low emmission zone charges.
It has the 2659cc diesel engine (the 4DR5 series) producing 59kW with only 11, 000 recorded miles. It was well maintained by its Japanese owner.
Fresh from import, this Jeep was subject to a full engine service and lubricants change.
A modern Stereo system has been installed concealed in the glove box with the original period radio remaining on the dash.
Albeit that as this is registered as a historic vehicle it is exempt from annual MOT inspections, we still submitted it and it passed with no advisories.
The car drives perfectly and benefits from the inclusion of after-market "Mickey Thompson" alloy wheels. The spare wheel is a less attractive aftermarket job.
The body work is in Very good original condition but we thought it could benefit from some minor cosmetic work.
Also it comes with the full weather kit and side doors, This weather kit allows the driver to configure the Jeep to suit their needs (see the photographs.
In 1953 Mitsubishi secured the rights to build the Willys under their own name and the Mitsubishi Jeep was born. In the United States the Willys was built until 1965 but in Japan Mitsubishi found great success in the versatile and rugged platform and so continued production until 1998. This light utility 4X4 is now ready for some all-weather off road fun or a roof down blast in the sun.
These popular vehicles are certainly an increasing value investment, coupled with a low cost practical daily driver.
On completion of the sale I require a £1000 deposit with cash or bank transfer on delivery.
The vehicle is offered at a very reasonable £ 15, 995 - NO offers please. This price reflects excellent value for money.
The vehicle is also being marketed on other specialist site, so could be removed at short notice.
Any viewing, test or inspection can be accommodated.
I am happy to deliver this to anywhere on the UK on my covered transporter. £2. 00 per mile (calculated one way) from SK22 1DF to delivery location. The best fun ever, MOT exempt, Road tax and Clean air zone exempt
