The private seller offers for sale this 1990 Suzuki Samurai SJ, powered by a 1.3-litre petrol engine, paired with a manual transmission. Few small off-roaders have achieved the cult status of the Suzuki Samurai. Introduced in Japan as the SJ413 in the mid-1980s, it was built around a rugged ladder frame, a lightweight body and a proper part-time four-wheel-drive system with low-range gearing, and it quickly became a favourite of adventurers, farmers and weekend explorers. In Spain, production was also carried out locally by Santana, which is why the model is a familiar sight on Spanish roads and trails.
This example wears an eye-catching camouflage paint job in green, brown and black, which gives it a military-inspired look and makes it stand out from the usual Samurai crowd. It is fitted with a hard top and carries its spare wheel on the tailgate, the classic Samurai arrangement. Inside, the straightforward dashboard, simple instrument cluster and upright seating position are exactly what you would expect from a no-nonsense 4×4 of this era. The seller describes it as a classic that is ready for a new owner who wants to take it further and develop its potential. The seller indicates the price may be negotiable.
With its compact dimensions, short wheelbase and light weight, the Samurai remains a capable and charming machine, both on and off the road. Simple mechanicals make it easy to maintain and to modify, and the strong enthusiast following means that parts and knowledge are readily available. For anyone looking for an affordable and characterful classic 4×4 with an unmistakable appearance, this Suzuki Samurai SJ is a fine starting point.
