THE APPEAL
What a great chance to own a 4x4 based on the chassis of the famous Willys Jeep. The Jeep has come from Japan, and is showing just 4,999 kilometres, believed to be 104,999 kilometres. The 4x4 is in great condition with all original features, and mechanically it is running as it should.
Perfect for any classic 4x4 fan who is looking for something a little different and to stand out from the rest with the usual run of the mill 4x4s.
THE HISTORY AND PAPERWORK
- V5 is present
- Registered initially 1st April 1981
- Registered in the UK 1st September 2021
- MOT valid until 5th June 2023
Coming from Japan, the Mitsubishi Jeep has little history with it. That being the case, we can only go on the condition, and it presents well with an excellent body both on the outside and underside, which is very clean. The seller imported the vehicle in September 2021, to add to his collection of classic 4x4 cars. He has now decided to change vehicles, and the Jeep has been given a full MOT and is ready for its new home.
THE INTERIOR
- Clean interior
- Well presented
- Column shift change
Inside the Jeep is well presented for the age of the vehicle. Starting with the driver's seat, this does look to have been replaced at some point with a material option over the standard vinyl seat, but it is in good order with no signs of excessive wear. The passenger seat is slightly wider than a standard seat but not quite a two-seater. Again, this is also in good order with no damage to point out. In the rear, there are two vinyl covered single seals, both in good condition.
The dashboard is finished in body colour to match the lower half of the Jeep. There are a few small chips in keeping with the age, but this adds some character and patina. The switches all look to be the originals which do have some slight signs of wear to them but are all reported to be working as they should. The instruments are also reported to be working correctly, with the odometer showing 4,999 Kilometers as mentioned, believed to be 104,999 Kilometers or 65,243 miles.
They chose to use a vinyl covering for the Mitsubishi Jeep flooring. This is mainly in good condition apart from a split in the driver's side which runs from the accelerator backwards toward the seat. Above, the headlining is in good condition with just a small amount of sagging as you would expect for the age. In the back, the flooring is the same material and in good condition.
THE EXTERIOR
- Based on a Willys Jeep
- Well presented
- Japanese import
- Good tyres
Looking very similar to a Willy’s Jeep from the front but with a fixed roof and back, the Mitsubishi Jeep is quite a rare thing and especially in this condition. Starting at the front, there are no real stone chips to mention. The bumper is straight and has two spotlights fitted that are in good order. The headlights are also free from any cracks in the lenses, however, there is a small amount of surface corrosion inside the reflector and on the chrome surround. The bonnet opens and closes as it should, and is held locked down by two safety catches on either side. The windscreen is free from any chips, and the seal looks to be in relatively good condition.
Around to both sides, there are no noticeable dings or dents to mention, and the jeep looks to be nice and straight. The doors align with an even panel gap, open easily and close with a firm hand. There are some small signs of blistering to the bottom of the driver's door, but nothing has broken through the paint. The windows both in the doors and rear quarters have just some light age related marks, but nothing too excessive and the seals appear to have very little perishing.
To the rear, the spare wheel is alloy and different to the other wheels. This is mounted to a frame that unclips and swings out of the way to access the nearside door. Both doors open as they should and look to align correctly. The light lenses are free from splits or cracks, and there are two overrider-style bumpers, with one doubling up as the step to aid getting into the rear. The wheels are finished in the same colour as the lower section. These look to be in good condition, and the tyres have a good amount of tread remaining.
THE MECHANICS
- 2.7 litre diesel engine
- Four-speed gearbox
- Four-wheel-drive
Since coming to the UK, the Jeep hasn't really been used much. However, a complete check-over of the mechanics has been done to ensure it is all working as it should be with no issues. The Jeep fires up as it should and comes to a smooth idle within seconds of starting.
It is reported to pull strongly through the gears in high or lo range with no untoward noises coming from the transmission or engine. The Jeep recently passed an MOT test which shows that the brakes are working as they should with no juddering through the pedal.

SUMMARY
This is an excellent opportunity for any 4x4 enthusiast to own something as close to a Willy Jeep as possible. The Mitsubishi Jeep is in great condition on the underside, outside and inside and runs like a dream.
With the Mitsubishi J24 Jeep’s being extremely rare, it will undoubtedly cause some head turning as you are seen driving down the road and would look great on a show field at any classic car event.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
